I’ve just rang the North stand relocation help line. I was on hold for 15 minutes. The automated message kept on stating high amount of volume calls.

I rang at about 2 o'clock on Friday and got through almost straight away and sorted our seats for next season.We are in the 500 being moved.Straight after booked the test event online.

I see the hotel is taking bookings from third week in September. I might be wrong but is that not a little earlier than expected?

When bookings initially went live it was October as people booked thinking that was the opening night. I said at the time I thought it would be earlier. I still think it possible its come in earlier than 3rd week in September too but not by too much.

With the North Stand nearing completion, taking the attendance up to 61000, and the COOP live holding 23000, and Mamma Mia Live coming up shortly, with 600 people able to attend

That would be 84600 coming into the Ehihad Campus at one time if City were playing at home, and there was a show on at COOP live and Mamma Mia Live

But no improvement in transport

What is the best way forward?

Upgraded trams with more carriages

Upgraded Bus services from the campus

Upgrading the station at Ashburys to handle more fans

Using the railway line that sits next to the ground to run shuttle trains that link up with park & rides that could be built away from the stadium, a lot of people use the park & ride at Aston West to visit the COOP live

Like any train i get on it’s absolutely rammed.I can’t bring my dad any more as he couldn’t do train.
Last game a young girl had a panic attack on the metro to the ground such was the crush same again at Piccadilly on a ridiculously full wilmslow train with folk fighting to get off.
It’s a huge problem I cant see being fixed.

I’ve just pre-ordered the Panasonic TZ300 camera. Better picture quality, a 15X zoom compared to my current camera that has a 3X zoom, etc. The camera is being released in May. No confirmed release date yet.

Can't go wrong with a Panasonic TZ Series. I have a 2009 TZ-7 and with a 12x Zoom and with 10.1MP sensor it produces some great photos to this very day, still on the original battery and it's 17 years old !

Does someone want to volunteer counting the seats in the Text event? If you add the greyed out seats, and seats for sale, we will know the seats added excluding the Sky Bar.
 
Being a FOC I’m a bit confused about the trial event on the 20th may. Is it just bums on seats or is there something to watch on the pitch?

Its more about testing the facilities than things happening on the pitch, Anfield had some schoolkids playing 5-a-side, Everton had a u18's match but they had a fire drill to test how that worked during the second half so it ended early.
So its more to test things like the kiosks,turnstiles,exits, toilets etc
 
The club should give @ccoverview and @ssskies free access to these test events, as they have kept us up to date more than the club has. Everton done it

Both these guys will be back for the Mamma Mia Live, as well as future Collar site development

We should all say a massive THANK YOU to them both by giving this post a LIKE

I sent an email last week to the club asking about getting ss skies a ticket, attaching the work he does. Not heard anything, i’ll chase it but probably just ignoring me but ill try again.

CP said he already had one so only mentioned SS skies
