Soccerex Global Convention Promo Video.

100% sure City will attend. And what a platform to showcase the completed training Academy. The delegates won't know what's hit them. :-)

Vimeo doesn't work on BM(tried), so you will have to click on the link.

"I said, young Man.......

Jesus has even got a brand new spade - I hope the plot where they are standing is one of the square feet that Rag with the taxi business was selling to fellow Rags a few years ago to stop the whole development!

Nice to see the bridge going up quite a landmark

Heard the rags are building a slippery slope into the ship canal, can anyone confirm?

Jesus thinks it's a barm so that's good enough for me.

Again, not directly related to the Collar/Campus plot but with one or two cogs on the rumour mill suggesting a concert venue on the site and the Apollo in Ardwick shifting (or did I make that up?) these proposals are of interest:

PDF form at the moment, though there might be a few Jpgs knocking around. New residential apartment build directly opposite the Apollo - site nicely together? I like the venue myself, and my eldest daughter has now started to go to gigs there...

Did you know that opposite the Apollo used to be the Ardwick Empire?

It was demolished in '64

<a class="postlink" href="http://manchesterhistory.net/manchester/gone/empire.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://manchesterhistory.net/manchester ... mpire.html</a>

So it wouldnt be beyond belief if they thought that getting rid of the Apollo was deemed necessary for the wider good.

Thought that was the Ardwick Hippodrome!

It was the Empire, and then was refurbished in 1944, and renamed the Hippodrome, i remember it well because we lived on Higher Ardwick in the early 60s
