i think that will get sorted when the sides/stands are done....regardless of that i think the design looks shit ...them protruding posts out onto the new road remind me of a flat roof extension on a period building

Yea no doubt but sorting the sides isn't exactly imminent!

Jacko I know what you mean mate in regards to stadiums all lookingthe same but iI just think in this instance it looks shit. The roof looks like is only really meant to go round neatly,because of the shape of it. It looks a botch job tbh, but hey my season ticket was 380 quid this year so I cant say I particularly give a fuck!

Where are you sat ? Our waiting list window is about to open and I hate wasting money.

I was there today (sorry didn't get any pics was just driving past) and the corners look really shit. I also think the new stand makes the east and colin bell stands look like they need a really good scrub. Looking a bit grimey these days

You're a depressing bastard aren't you? Haha. It's frightening that someone could look at the building work going on at the club and have such a downer on it.

Corners will look miles better when finished.

The new stand looks great overall, miles better than what most other clubs have come up with. If any blue can look at this and only have a moan, then they will NEVER be happy.

Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Threa

TBH I don't understand all the negativity about he corners. They aren't finished yet. And all the renders and videos show exactly how they will look when finished. As for the steel supports, most of them will be hidden by the large screens.

We've been shit at corners all year. It's just unlucky that we built the extension this season.

Some aren't happy unless they have something to moan about.

Not moaning mate. They're a topic of conversation so I'll pass comment and the truth is they look really shit. As I've also said a couple of pages back - I don't really give a fuck about them, but there's no getting away from it and whilst we're on the subject - they're crap

I took this when I was over at the Villa game;

Is that the finished shape of the corners? Have to be honest, it's not the prettiest thing I've seen. It has the appearance of a bodge job, which it obviously isn't.

No they are not.

The work is not finished yet and they dont look shit at all. What the heck did you expect/want it to look like?
 
Re: Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Threa

Let's be honest, when did we have a good corner at City? ;-) I'm off!!

Whatever the issue with the corners there will be thousands more Blues there for next season to sing their hearts out. Maybe.

Some poor sods will be sat there next season.

Won't the view from our "new row A" be similar now that those three rows are added? Maybe not quite as bad as that but similar?

For those wondering, that pic actually shows a corner which is no where near finished. Claiming a piece of construction looks like a bodge job while incomplete is beyond ridiculous.

Will look like this when finished. How will we cope?

LOL.

Let's be honest they are a "temporary solution" until the two side stands are extended and fitted with new roofs.

Okay that might be 10 years off but they're hardly the Gene Kelly Stand or it's little brother at the Platt Lane
are they? I don't think I'll lose much sleep over them.
