Wasnt it said moons ago that the training campus wasnt actually complete and the plan was for it to be both sides of the new rd.

I think it's been suggested that they need more space. It's also been suggested that eventually we'll build a new stadium where the campus is and swap them over but if true, most of us will be dead by then.

I seem to remember the chat about furthering the academy being seperate to the notion of a new ground..think it was not long after the academy opened..along with the bridge and it not being so far out if we see another bridge.

Either way it's all a long way from johnsons wire works and blue dye in your washing.
 
If you Google 'Asda in financial trouble', there are loads of articles about it. Some of the articles make for interesting reading.

The decontamination of the old Clayton Aniline was a major hint of what was to come.
A year or more was needed to clear the soil of its many cancer causing chemicals including the intermediate. "Aniline" itself.
Out with the old and in with the new.

Thank you Sheikh Mansour.

Conclusions & Observations The land uses of the immediate surroundings to the south and east are dominated by residential and education land uses. There is very little retail/commercial offer on the site apart from a small Tesco Express, and a large Asda Superstore to the northeast. The site is lacking convenient amenity for residents. North of the site is dominated by the Etihad Campus, with the large Manchester City Training Ground to the east along Alan Turing Way. Future plans will create lots of F&B within the planned Leisure and Entertainment Zone of the Etihad Campus. A number of transport links are located in the area including the Velopark Metrolink and many bus routes along Ashton New Road and Alan Turing Way
The Etihad Stadium and the Manchester City Academy Stadium are clear visual landmarks in the area, with visibility from a wide area surrounding. Retaining this dominance is felt to be strategically important for the function and legibility of access for users. The scale of the planned expansion for the Leisure & Entertainment Zone is yet unknown, but would be expected that this would be in context with the stadium and as such a step in scale from the Grey Mare Lane Estate and bringing this increased scale in closer context. The housing within the estate is a mix of 2 storey housing and 3 storey maisonettes focused around the Grey Mare Lane spine road. The new development around the Beswick Hub is a mix of larger 3 and 4 commercial storey heights, providing a clear emphasis to the south.

I worked at Clayton Aniline as an apprentice and their strange tasting tap water never did me any harm, although my prison psychiatrist may disagree.

Is this a new plan or a previous one?
