Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Thread

Hotel Football, opposite the Swamp, owned by Neville & Co made a loss.

It has been revealed that Hotel Football, the hospitality group owned by former Manchester United stars Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville, has lost £3.2 million over the last two years and owes more than £10 million in loans.

Annual accounts for the business, which were filed last week(September), show that the hotel has suffered financially due to the impact of the Covid pandemic and the subsequent national lockdowns.

The documents also revealed that the firm’s parent company, Orchid Leisure Ltd, had loaned the hotel business £10.2 million to ensure its survival.

Neville said that financial figures for 2022 have been “very encouraging”.

He added: “Based on the above the directors are confident that the company will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least the next 12 months.’’


I’d like to see a mixed use Hotel/apartment tower, including a viewing lounge/bar built close to the stadium, preferably on the Collar Site.

The Hotel would be busy. The apartments would sell. (football, music & events, Asda ;-), tram stop into the city centre, etc) I’d certainly use the lounge/bar if it was similar to Cloud 23(Beetham tower) and 20 stories.(No1 Spinningfield), just for the views.
They gave that hotel over to essential workers who had to stay away from home during lockdown. Hence the massive loss over that time.

CFG also continued its forward momentum this year. In Manchester, CFG is a partner in Co-Op Live, a multi-purpose, entertainment arena due to open in 2023 on the Etihad Campus.

This will be the largest UK indoor arena and will play a pivotal role in CFG’s ambitions to develop the Etihad Campus as a global sport, leisure and entertainment destination, as well as being a significant source of community, employment and economic opportunity for Manchester.

Come on Ferran, get the the expansion of the NS announced.

From the OS.

Chief Executive Officer Ferran Soriano echoes these sentiments: “Our strong revenue performance was due to multiple factors, but ultimately driven by the beautiful football we play and the continuous fan growth that it generates; more fans, more audiences, more people in the stadium, and more partners that want to be commercially associated with Manchester City.”
