North Stand Construction Discussion

Chris-NCL said:
Spurs’ double pitch arrangement means that they can bring truck into the pitch when required.
We have the same problem at SJP, the stage is at the Gallowgate end, where as the tunnel access is at the Leazes end. Everything has to be hand balled to the opposite side.

There is room to drive around the pitch at CoMS if needed.
 
We could get bogged down with the stage discussion.

Ultimately the stage can be put at either end of the pitch. There's nothing to stop that happening.

The logical end would be the North stand as it's next to the access tunnel.(I have been in there a few times)

With the expansion of the North stand and the additional revenue it would generate compared to the South stand for concerts, there certainly is a discussion to be had about which end of the Etihad the stage should be located.

We'll find out next Summer.

I'm going down to the Etihad today. I'll take some pictures.

Dont see the additional revenue, how many more seats is there in the North Stand? I also think you loose more on the corners Im also guessing the attendance has a limit

I touched on it before.

I'm just basing my thoughts on an additional 2000 seats(at £100 each), the floating 3rd tier, the Restaurant, 700 GA+ seats, the hotel rooms with balconies inside the North stand, the access in and out of the fan zone and the large drinking hall in the North stand before, during, and after the concert, all the other bars inside the north stand, etc. That doesn't mean I'm right.

I'll ask the tour guide next week about the returning concerts and what end he or she thinks the stage will be at. It might be an indicator?
