Just spotted this on MCC planning website. Can't seem to open the documents link so might not be there yet. Relates to the discs people have been buying?

Hard to say at the moment, it just says

Installation of tiles into the pavement at Commonwealth Way to form memorial.

with no further details.

Is the commonwealth way the bridge over the metro or where the new bridge is...
Club said the disks are going at the bottom of the new bridge..

The application has been filed today, so the documents won't be online until next week.

Drove past the Campus last night. They have taken the hoardings down on the mini stadium side of the bridge. I was surprised to see glazed units on the outside walls of the stadium. If memory serves me correctly that part of the stadium was designated future commercial space in the planning application. Its clearly glazed for a specific reason. Wonder what's planned for that space?

The glazed units will probably be matchday retail/food joints. Personally I think the stadium tour should start over on the campus, ie "start of the tour, the start of our players education/career etc."

An interesting snippet about Manchester Giants moving to near the Trafford Centre.

There was talk about basketball being one of the sports co-located on the campus.

Drove past the Campus last night. They have taken the hoardings down on the mini stadium side of the train. I was surprised to see glazed units on the outside walls of the stadium. If memory serves me correctly that part of the stadium was designated future commercial space in the planning application. Its clearly glazed for a specific reason. Wonder what's planned for that space?

For the past year on match days I have stayed on the tram to the Velopark stop to have a look at progress on the training complex and SS. Only a few people have been getting off at Velopark but next season I expect to see loads more, hope also to see a few outlets built into the Minihad.

They were looking for a temporary venue, weren't they, until a permanent home could be built? Maybe I'm wrong, but I assume this is that temporary move and they're still likely to end up at the Campus.
