North Stand Construction Discussion

Just been the Etihad, had two enforcement officers in purple jackets approach me saying I couldn't do what I was doing told them I can. They even asked for my youtube channel, maybe more subscribers? Put me off my stroke with the video but will get it edited now and will leave in the conversation. Shame I didn't have a body cam on. Video on about 90mins

Might have been that they took exception to…!
 
I wasn't narrow when I went there. Saying that, I did get in early. Later on when it was full, it still didn't feel narrow.

I will be interesting to see how the 3000 capacity fan zone operates, because there will be a lot more fans than that wanting to go into it.
They might operate it like they did with the pre-match at co-op live events and issue free tickets on a first come first served basis via the website.
 
Video here, put off my stride by the enforcement officers, conversation approx 9mins 25secs I've left it in the video. Cheers


Who were these enforcement officers? Seemed polite enough but didn’t seem to know what they were talking about. Don’t worry @ssskies we will have a whip around to pay your bail!

What’s the reasoning for only just putting the screens in the corners of the SS while doing the NS? Probably a simple explanation but it’s lost on me

My in-head theory is that the original intention was to move the north stand screens up to the south stand when they redeveloped the north stand.

However, closer to the time, they chose not to replicate the design and not “redevelop” the corners in the same way.

This meant there was no need to move the north stand screens and brand new ones were needed for the south stand instead.
 
If this new studio for Sly and TNT is to be built in the NE corner, after demolishing the one in the SE corner, they’ll have to get a shift on…
 
Great drone flight @ssskies, I saw you buzzing away above me this afternoon, I even feature briefly a couple of times. I even caught you as a microdot on my overview picture from the rusty spot where the programme seller hut used to be

There was a notice displaying some information outside where some work is about to be carried out in the south west corner.

And finally the finishing work to the pavements around the new access road looks to be of great quality
