Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

Whatever happens whether new build or expansion can we have a retractable roof on it, watching those snow shovellers running up and down white lines should not happen in the modern era. :-)

Too right, and heated seats for those cold winter nights. ;)

Would love that but the weight on this old mining area may just be too much

Surely the prospect of safe standing has to be considered in any future plans.( anyone who mentions Hillsborough should be banned forthwith). They have it abroad, it adds to the atmosphere, it could increase the gate, it cannot be ignored
I agree and want it but it doesnt increase the gate nowadays mate as everyone has to have their own clearly defined space and the seats must be back in place for European matches.



"...currently permits 1.8 standing fans per space required for a seat."

We should have it along the bottom tier of the East Stand... The New Kippax!

Can't see a new stadium for lots of reasons... The main one being space. Where will it go? The North Car Park isn't big enough and it's just the wrong end of the site. The prime position is where it is now, unless you bulldoze Beswick...?

Move Asda and build a new stadium spanning Turing Way onto the collar site. The pitch on a upper tier above a carpark, retail, entertainment and attractions with a closing roof that would enable a concert area Could look like Ferrari World then knock down the CoMS
