Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Thread

Werec building a concert arena, extended football stand and associated outlets ! Not a world wide heritage centre in warm weather countries ! Budgets are budgets can't see us struggling to agree a acceptable budget with contractors !

I’m not complaining. :-)

Once everything is built, including whatever is proposed for the Collar site, the Etihad Campus, including the CFA over the bridge will look amazing. It won’t be matched or bettered by any other PL club.
 
Not on the Etihad Campus, but just across Alan Turin Way from it.

ISG has completed a programme of modernisation and operational performance upgrades at the National Cycling Centre in Manchester, upgrading the track and spectator facilities.

Has anyone been on the indoor BMX track? As well wanted a go on it.
 
Slightly off topic.

Redevelopment of the AO Arena.

Don’t know if these are old pictures or if work is on-going in-between the concerts and events?

That reminded me, I wanted to do a thread on Bluemoons oldest poster, no offence mate but you must be getting on a bit ? :)
Unfortunately I don't get on much at all these days what with dodgy knees, breathlessness and waiting for blood temperature to rise. I look back on my teenage years, long long ago, and premature ejaculation now has fond memories and can only wish I could get excited that quickly again instead of pounding away on someone as old as me, both with our eyes closed, but with good imaginations. Hope that paints a picture for you regarding a thread with me as centrefold;-)

Very graphic ;)

Looks like their idea of an upgrade is to add more areas to the arena which people can't afford?

Interesting to see which arena gets the top acts going forward. The Co-op Live is clearly built more with music in mind whereas the MEN is and always will be a sports arena that hosts concerts. The difference between the MEN and all of those similar arenas in America is that these all have sports tenants(or multiple) that ensure it is used for 3 or 4 nights a week before you consider music events. The MEN hasn't had that for 20 years and will now have a direct competitor for boxing events too because of the flexibility of the Co-op.
