Etihad Campus, Stadium Development and Collar Site

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

not seen it if already covered elsewhere but I noticed that the diggers were on the Grey Mare Lane market site on the way home tonight so looks like work beginning across the whole site now

I noticed that to, also, what ever was behind it (a primary school I think) has been knocked down and flattened.

Manchester City, ruining community markets since 2013.

It's the Market and the Old market that are being knocked down, St Brigids school is still intact.

This takes me back. Used to play them at football and rounders when I was at junior school. Pauses to reminisce....

Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

As the o/s has spent the last 2 weeks celebrating leaving Maine Road and the first 10 years of the Etihad reaching the present day today, am I being over optimistic hoping they will cap it with an announcement on the future.

Could be on the money there. I would do it when you announce a new manager.

Yes, you probably are.


But we can hope.

Seems very apt and logical.

Wouldn't it be great with Pics of the new academy and a new south stand in the background

Does anyone know if St. Brigids will be demolished - Is it in the Campus plan? Reason for asking is I use their Car Parking - season ticket.

Current plans show that the school is going nowhere, I have 2 Grandchildren at the school also City do not want to upset the local community by closing down a local school, the Pr would be terrible
