Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Thread

[Tim of the Oak]

Take That are complete gash. How the fuck can they fill the Etihad for ten nights? Must be some stupid fuckwits in the North West. 50,000 women trying to use a few hundred toilets should be interesting. Prob have to make all toilets women only. Blokes who go to Take That probably don't booze anyway or sit down for pisses!

True but if 60,000 turn up to listen to Ian Brown anything is possible!

Apparently they want £85 million for that crane. They also want one of our cranes but want us to pay for it to be shipped over there and for us to pay the wages of the operator for 3 years.

Gash attracts gash.

10 x 50,000-60,000 people = 500,000-600,000 people = £ for City!

Remember when they stated the desire to pull in 6,000,000 per annum to the area?

30 home games at 60,000 is 1.8m, concerts another 1m - they would be half way there!

Coldplay, ACDC, and the Stone Roses.

More than that if it's 60k a gig? Roses did 4 gigs, did coldplay do 1 or 2? The boss also did one

I was going off 50,000 gates. Don't know the exact figures.
Coldplay 1.
ACDC 1.
Stone Roses 4.

 

[Wilf Wild 1937]

I think it was 8 concerts this Summer. Roses 4, Coldplay 2, AC/DC and The Boss 1 each.

400,000 assuming an average of 50,000 for each. Probably more because I think some were sell outs.

We've also had getting on for 100,000 for the two England internationals (football and rugby union).

Oh ... there was also 1,400,000+ for the 28 City home games. Probably just under 2 million since the South Stand Extension was opened.

Are they doing the club shop up again? Looks like they are clearing out the downstairs this morning
