Apparently the club did factor in the staff, in the move to the CFA, but somehow have ended up without enough room for them in the offices there. So the rest will stay at City@home.

Also a couple of years back, didn't the club have plans to build some offices were the Summerbee/Maine Road pub was, didn't they knock the pub down to do this ?

It was rumoured to be where the media were going but that seems to have gone with the lecture theatre style thing at the CFA.

Yes it does, the new badge looks like something done for childrens television.

Each to their own. I always thought our current badge was designed by a school competition winner. The new one is class.

I hope they use the rebrand as an opportunity to spruce the area around the stadium up a bit - looks a bit tatty in parts.

They had people hanging off some crane painting the spiders legs last week. It's looked tatty around the ground for a while, I think they've seen it themselves too.

Need to get the blue neon lights replaced on the top of the stadium. Looks shit with only 1 ever working.

Either that or turn them all off.

Disgrace that a club who pays yaya 35,000 a day can't fix these. Would cost less than 20k.

Just done the junior run around the ground with my little ones - 8 mins for 1.5miles :)

What a dump the place is, never really considered all the standing water and holes until you are forced to actually run around it!

Danny Wilson rang me once about a lengthy email i wrote to the club and he said that pigeons pecked at the wiring and the lights went out, that was a few years ago now so the pigeons must be still at it!
