anyone having doubts about whether we should extend or not should be fully behind any expansion, i live miles from manchester and City shirts are appearing literally everywhere, City shirts are becoming the shirt of choice for loads of young ones, more sustained success can only cement this growth. How many people would love to take in a match buy literally cannot get a pair of tickets together never mind 4 or 5. Selling an additional 9000 tickets would be easuly achievable with the correct pricing, i would even add some of our bigger fixtures now would attract 75-80000

Always wanted an 85000 capacity stadium to go with our status.

Remember being in crowds of 63,000 at Maine road,dad was at the 84,569 record crowd stood on the Kippax before the roof was on.

As has been said...someone is sticking their head in the sand, big time. It's the same with the Coop Live, how are they going to get people/fans in and out with no transport infrastructure?

The 3-3 draw with United in 1971 was the biggest crowd I was in at Maine Road.
It was the year when there was no seating in The North Stand,so capacity was alot higher than later in the 1970s.
I think the attendance that day was over 63,000 .

This has been posted by a guy on Facebook who seems to have pretty good knowledge of the Club.

The family stand is finally in the works of being extended similar to what the south stand 3rd tier is like.....it will be the second highest attendance premier league club with it being extended to around 62/63 thousand....also a hotel is back in discussion plans of building it on the land of the stadium!

The future is definitely bright for us blues!
