North Stand Construction Discussion

[HelloCity]

Has anyone mentioned that one of the roof beams might be slightly misaligned?

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

You could be right.

I'm not doubting you.

Let's see how City sell tickets for NSL2, normal seats and safe standing seats.

They’ll surely just sell out immediately. Why not just have 5,000 safe standing seats sorted before people go into the stand.

I doubt we’re going to sell seated areas and then suddenly change them. Why not just canvass opinion beforehand

If there’s a function on CP Overview or SSskies drone that automatically puts the camera shot at horizontal - and they can line up exactly above the centre spot - then we could put the argument to bed re the wonky roof beams?

Don't think it is that much of an argument.

The only obvious answer is to knock the shoddy thing down.

Start again next year and hope it’s not on the piss again

As in it’s definitely wonky?

 

[Pollocks OG]

Sorry if already been mentioned but do we know if they're putting those rows of seats at the front of bottom tier behind the goal back in?

I meant more the intensity of the arguement, ha.

But yeah I agree with people the central bay doesn't look completely level. The aerial photos make it look worse than it is imo, but let's see how it all plays out

It will be a livelier experience if the Skywalk is a bit uneven!

 

[jimharri]

If it is out of alignment ,I'm sure they will rectify it, to keep our Bluemoon posters happy.

An impossible task!

Like that mad cake walk thing that used to be in the Fun House at Blackpool?

We were going to but now we will probably stack them all on top of each other to prop the roof up :)

 

[Coatigan]

An impossible task!

Even the happy clappers?

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

I think it will look great from pitch level. As for the roof walk, I’ll pass on that one.

Ah I’m with you - yes “argument” probably too strong. We’ll call a debate!

Removed to make space for the old roof to pivot down so, yes they will be re-installed and so will the ones below the new screen in SE corner

From another site, For you OCD folk...

As provided by journalist Edward Burnett, the latest look at ongoing work inside the Etihad Stadium ahead of the 2025/26 season showcases impressive progress on the expansion of the arena’s North Stand.

Insight also revealed that a new giant screen will be introduced into the South Stand, expected to be bigger than the existing two screens housed either side of the North Stand.

However, the report confirms words from Manchester City staff, who insist that there are currently no plans for a fourth screen in the remaining corner of the Etihad Stadium.

OCD well and truly triggered!

You'd have thought SISK would have used a spirit level.

Anyway.

Went to the Etihad yesterday.

Pictures will be posted later on this evening, including pictures of the new canal side bar next to the Coop Live Arena.
