By the looks of the documents, it seems that Populas have the gig for the North Stand

Im guessing there will be a temporary club shop somewhere on the campus asap.

The Planning Statement confirms they've had pre-application discussions and done a briefing to Councillors on proposals. I wonder if that's also included the next stage and what's to come. I would imagine we'll see proposals very early in the new year and an application not long after that, once they've ticked the box on consultation! It's already finalised I'm sure.
 
Look at the drawings , I would personally move the shop and musuem to next to Alan Turing Way right next to exit from COOP live, then use the land that was the super casino for shops and hotels etc but could be the other way about and they build a hotel right next to COOP live

CS 2.0 Upgrated City - the reason for this is that there is a bridge that has a exit from COOP live
CS + M Club Shop & Musuem that could be linked to the staduim via a walkway
H,S,L,L,H This could be a mixed use building that could be booked ended by two hotels and feature pubs,restuarants,cinema,offices and apartments

Sorry for the rubbish drawings

Looking at the Coal Mining Risk Assessment document, I was surprised that there is still an unlocated and untreated shaft (Shaft H) within the campus, if I've read the latest projected position in that document correctly it's somewhere between an E-W line roughly level with the back of the shop and the metrolink cutting.
 
Timeline of all the ground works.


Demolish Club Shop 29 Jun 23
Dismantle & Remove Club shop/Seating Area Structures + Grub Up Foundations 13 Jul 23
Establish Safe Route for Fans including hoardings 11 Jul 23

It should be noted that there is a ton of groundwork to be done over the next 12 months. It sounds like actual construction won't start until early 2024 due to the amount of work which needs completing since the listings here stop at Jan 2024.

Summer 2025 will likely be the planned completion time period.

Going off those timings are we likely to see temporary-temporary facilities set up while works are completed on the arena? Maybe in one of the other sports facilities like the indoor/outdoor athletics track, or at the CFA. It may also lead to more facilities like the new area in the South stand installed around the stadium, giving pre & post match entertainment etc
