Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont
800 seats have been lost temporarily at the south stand + 900 around the 1st row (at present) and with the end seats taken out. The end seats are permanently removed due to the fact that only a certain amount of people can sit in the "new block" when the extra 3 rows are added. This is due to number of people using the aisles. Thought the temporary works were well done last night and the supporters seemed tolerant at the inconvenience during the building.

Should tell the" Management" that this would be a good beer outlet - if we bring our own tankards. (This is a reference to another poster who was complaining of poor service at the bars.)
Can someone tell me what our "record" gate is at The Etihad.? I have always believed it to be against QPR - Sergioooooooooooooooo! - of 47,444.
Some others say different.!.
As already stated last night - 45,471 - not quite 2,000 down - Should imagine that until January our capacity will be around 45,500.
The Etihad capacity is always stated as 47,705 - but we will never achieve this - because of segregation - and Showsec standing between rows.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont
Is there a timetable for when the SE and SW corner seats will return? I take it from your comment above that the "800 seats temporarily lost" are the corners plus the last row. Are the corners returning or gone for good? Thanks
When did you say that the first font row seats would be added? I recall you mentioning two dates, January and March?worsleyweb said:

I know it's got fuck all to do with this thread but I'll tell u anyway!!! After 4 boring, surrounded by knobheads and tourist years ,me and our kid moved seats in the Colin Bell from Y to P, it's like being in a different ground!! It's mint! Everybody sings ,everybody stands up swears like sailors, well like football should be really!!! So arrieverderci Boring bastards in Y getting dirty looks off women for swearing!! Honestly!! It does happen!! Imagine that in the 80s!! It got to the point last year were we wasn't looking forward to the games as much as the atmosphere was so lacking. The West Ham game at the final whistle everybody else in the stadium were standing up except our little corner!! I mean we'd just won the effing league and these androids still sat down!! I thought there was no atmosphere at City in recent times but it's about were you sit,it sounds obvious but like I said it was like being in a different stadium!!!! This is gonna sound well sexist but so what!!! There's hardly any women around our new seats to moan! Just like it used to be!!! Sorry ladies I know there are a few who know what's what and have been going for years, but some just go to moan and grass on people for swearing . Maybe I've been in Y too long!!!

Yes, me. Right above my seat and where I stand.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Reported it that Morning when I was helping the 1894 Group with their display. Was told it was the overflow tap and it would be switched off before the start of the match. As you can see from that picture (and one's I've taken) it was still on during the match. Had to watch the match through it, around it, with water dripping over me, and also on the other fans stood next to me.
PS. That's not me in the picture.
