It's really starting to take shape the South Stand now, you can see the concrete structures going in clearly. It's not till you're actually at the ground that you realise how big the new stand will be, it's huge!, it's definitely going to enhance the atmosphere.

The new CFA looks incredible as well, the area around the Etihad is completely unrecognisable to even just two years ago!, Sheikh Mansour has done wonderful things for our city.

Took a few pics while on a visit to the club shop this afternoon. Not a great deal going on except the concrete pouring on the floors you see in the OS pictures on the previous page.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont

It's come on loads since the Spurs game. Didn't notice last night because it was dark. Still feels a little exposed at the back of the South Stand, wind and rain gets in despite the temporary roof, so the quicker the framework goes up the better.

JRB took this on 17/10 - Only change is pedestrian turnstyles now installed (the van blocked this on my pic) and end of the wall finished off.

Didn't know you can see the seats inside, guessing the mesh will be installed by opening to avoid anything being thrown in or out during local derby matches.

Today - Is it just me that thinks that outdoor balcony bit will be the place new signings are unveiled on a deadline day to the kids gathered at the gates?

The last one is boring, but the amount of daylight in those shrubs means no press lenses will sneak a peek and the height of the green fence is too high for ladders:

what a completely ridiculous comment to make

if the 74 in your user name is the year you were born then in that time we won a trophy in 76 followed up by four between 2011 and now

although i suspect the 74 is more likely your IQ
 
Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont

I currently use entrance N1 underneath the new building works.
What I realised on Wednesday was just how deeo all of the concourses are going to be.
The area for the fans is going to be huge in the stands.
 
Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont

Anyone know WHEN Gorton Electical are gonna be unveiled as CFA sponsor?
 
Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont

When the club move to the new training centre, ie the offices, what will happen to the City@home building , also what happened to the building that was going to replace the old Summerbee's/Maine Road pub behind the athletics stadium ?

Wasn't it written somewhere that Home was only a temporary structure to be replaced when they move to the CFA and possibly linked to the Mercedes Garage Development
 
Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site (cont

If I remember correctly City at home was only supposed to a temporary structure for 5 years or so?

By the way we are getting improved floodlighting - LAD style as our current lighting does not meet new premier league guidelines and the replacing of the blue lights at the top of the huge steels which have most failed is not in Laings contract. Used to love them all lit up!
