So am i right hear ? United could never expand the south stand because of the freight terminal ? What’s stopping them expanding the south stand if the freight terminal gets relocated ? Or am i missing something?

If the Egyptians could build the pyramids then the logistical side of the build isn’t really a problem , shipped in , craned off , put into situ very easily , Trafford Park could easily cope with a stadium build , i do think we are forgetting that United own a large slice of land around the stadium

The point you are missing is;
Is the ship canal, with all it's years of neglect, deep enough to carry a ship full of circus stuff ?

Loads of room behind stand there's large car park the stand along side railway line is issue to tight to bridge it plus cheap skates built on top of old stands instead of removing these now are crumbling

When it’s gets signed off that the freight terminal will be moved I’ve a funny feeling that it will be the existing stadium that’s gets revamped , United have always said they can’t do the south stand with the freight link , it would be far cheaper to throw a new south stand up , which anyway would increase the capacity to circa 90-100 thousand. United get a commitment to land sale , then they have no real need to build a new stadium do they?

You have a point I suppose , clown cars are really heavy , elephants alone must weigh 60 tonnes for say twenty adult elephants, then you have trapeze equipment , cannons for the clowns to be shot out of. Safety nets , burger vans , even candy floss outlets definitely make it a logistical nightmare.

I suppose, once the ship is docked you can use the elephants to transport the canons which have first fired the lions into the trapaze artists nets, (note to self, ensure the nets are set up before firing the lions out)
The clown cars could drive themselves there, falling apart just as they arrive and the tattooed lady, well she only lives down the road in Ordsall.
