City to expand Etihad to 62,000?

[HelloCity]

To achieve this we’d have to completely demolish the current North Stand as well as the northern quadrants.

It would then depend on whether the old cable net supports and wires allow for a stand of this shape to fit within its boundaries.

I never get jealous.

I'm just a bit pissed off that the Etihad has been left behind, even though it's still one of the better PL stadiums.

Click on the link for a very interesting, but short video of the inside of Spurs new stadium. And a view of the single tier behind the goal.

True.

But that stadium with give them a huge boost.

I accept the cost of the new stadium will weigh on Spurs for years to come.

A city lad has been working in spuds new stadium and says it is good

Surely no bigger boost than playing every home match at the home of football like last season. Play the match not the stadium.

It looks like a fabulous stadium alright. I look forward to Tottenham having a similar 10 years to Arsenal as they deal with paying back the cost of the new ground!

Don't remember this being mentioned on here but this trash journalism aimed at City doesn't help with perceptions:

How they got hold of those figures, how reliable they are and how they compare to United, Arsenal, Liverpool and co are absent facts. I really despise everyone associated with that publication, they clearly constructed that because City fans were calling them ****s over the Sterling abuse.

That is bloody stunning. Fair play to them.
