North Stand Construction Discussion

"Match-by-match ticket releases for matches where the expanded section is in operation this season"

That's what I would have expected, although I suspect the club may offer a package of "remaining" home games at a discounted price to individual match day tickets.
A mini SC if you will.
If City and Villa are still in the hunt that last home game will give us an idea of the potential atmosphere, if its not ready for the Arsenal game in April, that is.
Will both be easily sold out I would expect with plenty of tension in those games with lots at stake.
Looking forward to it.
Personally I'm staying put for next season and will try a few cup games in the new North stand at different locations to get a feel for it before deciding if I want to move from my beloved 019.

The North Stand 'Blue Wall'.

It's so important, that it deserves its own thread. IA threadwill also hopefully act as a rallying point for all those in favour of it being City's first & principle end for singers and young, boisterous,loud & proud Mancunians along with future generations. Imagine the Etihad being...

It doesn't work because it got merged with this one, it's an idiotic reason for yet another pointless thread started by the poster formerly known as 'Gone For a Burton'.

Edit: not this thread, the other one for the NS ticketing.

North Stand expansion - seating, ticketing etc

There were definitely some Dortmund fans in SS3. We had word of that plus I saw myself Two were escorted out through S door at 7.15 because they got up and applauded the keeper during the warm up from the City end. Talking to all the stewards they had been told specifically to remove any away...

How of an impact will the North Stand construction, hotel, entertainment areas etc have on matchday revenue? Ours is the lowest out of the top 6 clubs, will be interesting to see how much of the gap is closed on the rags and London clubs once it’s fully operating

We will probably pass Liverpool on match day revenues but have miles to go to close United, Spurs and Arsenal.

From TalkSport (revenue per home game)

MCFC £2.8m
LFC £3.1m
MUFC £4.38
THFC £5m
AFC £5.2m

Absolutely we will pass Liverpool, but I'm not sure we will ever pass utd for matchday revenue with their travelling sheep in the souvenir shop or the prices in that there London

Off topic but you can see from those figures why the rags were so behind removing the share of the revenue from the away club back in the day 25% of ticket sales was a sizable amount assuming 50% of the rags revenue is ticket sales that £10.4m a season, of course some of that would be recouped in the revenue they got from their aways games but it would be a net loss for them
5% went to the league levy as well

I stand corrected. The first picture proper showing the view of the stadium and pitch from NSL2. This is the view those of you relocating to NSL2 will get. Last picture.

In that final pictute, those verticals we previously discussed between the cable ring and the roof beam, there, look very much temporary. Mind you could be an older photo.

Don't think that they are temporary or they would have been removed by now. But they will be beyond vision, if you are looking at the pitch and not looking up at the roof

Would be good to know what margin is being made on those revenues to understand exactly what gap needs closing

Liverpool I believe statistically have the least season tickets in the premier league percentage wise to allow for maximum revenue from day trippers etc

I'm neither here nor there with it, just pointing out in that photo which is the closest up we have seen, they look temporary. I think the later drone images we have seen they do look a bit more permanent, so they may have been replaced since that was taken.

Probably won't be noticeable for those in the stand itself as you say, but they are noticeable from everywhere else around the pitch and other stands.

It's a just comment on them, not a 'complaint' fwiw

Definitely dated. Probably Summer?

That's pretty much the centre left of the stand, adjacent to the goal below, with no seat frames or seats installed.
 
Any idea when it actually opens?

I'm constantly trying to get tickets for me and my dad. There usually single tickets available but trying to get two seats together is always difficult.

We end up going to cup matches or occasionally get a lower prem team - we've got hospitality tickets for Brighton as well - I'd love to get some tickets for a few of the better matches.

It has been suggested that in the New Year, City will announce a schedule of the Health and Safety tests. That announcement might give us a clue on the timing of the opening.
