Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Is it true? Are ADUG still buying land?

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Nothing against you Steve, but I don't believe him. ;-) (he should know though jrb)
There's no way the Etihad's capacity will stay at 47,750(?) if City are serious about increasing match day revenue. Sold out signs every home match and absolutely no chance of increasing corporate revenue with the grounds current configuration.(club level 2?)
I suppose only time will tell.

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Maybe they are saving the announcement for the day after the season ends? Good way to bury the disappointment. :)
Can't wait for all the piss taking from the deluded rags who actually think we don't sell out, then our 50,000-60,000 attendance the first day after the expansion is complete.

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
I suppose what we all really know after 265 pages is 'we still don't know' if there will be 55000 or 65000 or what is happening with the stadium.

Thought I'd make the most of it a take a couple some pictures.

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Click twice 2 emlarge.
Taken today.
20,000 empty seats. are you f***ing sure?
As per some empty seats in the corporate section, family stand, and in some other parts of the stadium. However, Newcastle only sold the bottom tier of the away end, leaving an extra 1000+ seats taken by City fans in the upper tier of the away end. To my left.
More proof that the stadium needs expanding.

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Great photo jrb and even better work Photoshopping people into those 20,000 empty seats. ;)
There were the usual sporadic empties today (and genuinely 20,000 empty seats 5 minutes from full-time) but as usual no-shows from ticket holders and certainly not something that would stop the club expanding.

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium
Considering it was the Easter Weekend, the title is all but lost, Newcastle United only took half of their allocation, as well as not being the draw they used to be, the crowd of 47,000+ was more than decent.
