Good find Petrusha.
Any thoughts about the Chinese visit to the Etihad tomorrow (collar site investment wise). Possible both 'Dave and Gid' will be there so presumably some kind of announcement will be made?

I'm hoping so. The dream would be the Collar Site, but I don't think there's any particular reason beyond an optimistic disposition to think it will be that. Not long to wait to find out, though.

Does anyone know when the club is looking to commence works on the collar site?

Does anyone know what exactly is going to be on the collar site? And is there a webpage/something detailing it. Hard to look through 600+ pages.

No, speculation nothing more

It's almost entered mythology now!
There's managing expectations and there's corking a bottle of champagne for use in a hundred years.
Think Tolm fanned the embers mentioning both 'Gid n Dave' are involved such is the importance, but I'm paraphrasing from another thread.

Thanks. That's good news
Are we already at 3000? I always thought our away end (pre expansion) held 2700, so less than both 10% and 3000

We now meet minimum numbers for away and disabled fans following changes to the stadium during expansion, the FA stipulated they would no longer tolerate us being below either post expansion.

Thanks. Just checked and the away ends hold 3058 so just over
