The original idea was for it to be blue.

Got poo pooed (technical term) by the powers that be and they went for the classic cladding favourite, metallic silver.

Any idea why it was rejected?
 
Without stating the obvious, they didn't like the colour. For what exact reason I do not know. Silver on the other hand is always a fail safe. Personally I quite liked the blue but on the larger scale it may have looked a little 'fun'. A bit bouncy castle-ish.
 
the blue may have faded quite quickly - nothing worse than washed out plastic

fortunately blue lasts much better than red - go see the seats at Sunderland for a classic example of red gone embarrassingly pink....

Is this going to be on the collar site?
 
That Futbol World thing has been a concept for as long as we've had Sheikh Mansour as owner.

As far as anyone has been able to suss its nothing more than a concept.

Seems to fit in with the type of attraction that's required, seems a great idea to me.


We surely must have concrete plans and ideas for the collar site by now.

Not necessarily - I would imagine that the size of plot would mean more than one tenant being involved. Multi-use and maybe even multi-phased build.
