Those images are just a rough mockup and are no way relevant to the final design.

About time the moan moan brigade were taken to task. Gene Kelly / dog shite alleys / stinking bogs / the guy who stood with the "sinners repent" banner / Peter Swales / loads more reasons to be unhappy if you want.
71 years old these are the best years I have had following City, oh and don't forget never boo a Blue.

I miss the bloke in the bowler hat with a placard saying Judgement Is At Hand - he made a point of waving it more vigorously outside the away supporters turnstiles!

My God where I sit in tier 2 row G just to the right of aisle:212 there is no roof we will all get pissed wet through.

I wonder what De Niro makes of it as he is on my row?

They're covering that gap on match days with a special covering.

And very blurred and inprecise too but I did it to give a feel for how far we could get capacity wise expanding the sides

Oh well now we know what these were for

They also look like they're gonna be in for a while - looks like at least one row of seats (may be more) missing for a season or some restricted view seats - I assume they'll be used to prop up the bottom of the third tier as they start to construct it

Looking at the photos from 2 weeks ago they have really started moving on quickly. In 8 weeks time when we turn up for the Liverpool game I think we will surprised just how much has been done. Looking at the latest photos it just shows how fast we are approaching the next level in regards to the growth of the club. Very exciting times to be a Blue.
