It depends, how fast can you run?

I'm actually very disappointed in jrb with these most recent pictures, the view up the new bridge clearly shows no one around and yet he didn't sprint up the bridge and take shots from the middle. I think he's slipping.

Was at Asda today. Whilst stopped at the traffic lights I noticed all the pipework on the underside of the bridge. Anyone know what this is for as it doesn't look like drainage?

My guess when i've been under it is that it's lights, it would look brilliant if them tubes were LED blue light filled. Is it staying white? Who is going to be the Sponser name on it? Big money earner that naming rights of the bridge, more income if it ain't already sponsored by Etihad..

Been asked before, the best guess is networking between the two sites

Are they going to pump water over for the stadium pitch, out of the catchment reservoir under the academy?

The whole site is aiming at good ecological practice there were "massive" tanks installed below ground

I propose we all chip in and get jrb a cherry picker,its the least he deserves after all his sterling work,throw away those step ladders and pull a cherry picker around the complex.


also jrb should get the mbe(member of the bluemoon empire for services to snooping.

ive added a few times on this thread that its my favourite,and would love very much if city have had the foresight to film in the style of grand designs the planning and building of the works carried out.

fuck me if giggs can get a show on itv for being a shit manager for 4 weeks surely we could get something for the building project.

Does this work mean a slightly reduced capacity this coming season? Can't imagine the whole stand being open with a building site up top?
