City put a video on of Richards and Lescott walking round the Etihad roof.

Might be in line with an extension announcement.

Testing the new Waterslide, perhaps?

No, the cablenet "only" holds up the N, E & W stand roofs, the south stand doesn't use it at all.

So it holds up 3 sections of the roof but continues around the whole stadium passing under and through the South Stand
I'm interested to know the structure design of the South Stand roof cant find anything on it.

It’s held up by its own independent cable net which is supported by those giant triangle structures.

My mate built it. His company was in charge of building the south stand, the campus and the tunnel club. They wanted him to do the new arena but he sold up and he’s happy working 4 days a week for Mark Stott.
I’ll ask him how the roof works.

Can you get down there from level 2? Lol

Guessing nobody knows? Lol years ago I went down from level 2 in the east stand on some stairs on the inside. Wouldn't mind checking out the new area if I can find something similar

Have they got a roofing company?
