North Stand Construction Discussion

[Citizen of Legoland]

If there were no screens added to the South Stand then most of the new upper area of NorthStand wouldnt be bale to see any

No I understand that but one in each of NE/SW or NW/SE and it probably serves the majority of the stadium. I know there’ll be certain areas that might struggle, such as seats far back in the stands but some of those might still have issue with 4. I mean Wembley manages with just 2.

Back in my day, at Maine Road…….need I say more? Most games weren’t even televised or filmed until the 1990s.

No harm in having the 4 I know for a fact that City were recommended to have 4 when they employed some US consultants who specialise in entertainment venues particularly NFL. I was asked to look after one who wanted to sit with the fans and watch a match

A new hospitality, like The Ardwick on the other side. Screen going above that so the same could happen here

There’s already a bar there, The Managers Corner I think it’s called, there was around 90/100 seats.

Cheers, never knew it existed until I saw it on this season's season ticket renewal plan

Lots of discussion of screens on here, but I think we should have an electronic scoreboard (that doesn’t work) suspended from the bottom of the sky bar.

Make it a proper North Stand.

It did work.

Season's greetings from the North Stand scoreboard

City's archive team have unearthed more rare finds...

I used to stand and sit in R Block, which was a very small block, at the very back of the North stand, right next to the away end. We had plenty of fun and games with the away fans up there.

South West Corner rebadged.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Despite being covered for weeks and driven over by two 36 tonne and one 72 tonne crane, the bits of the pitch exposed on Colin’s latest video are still in better condition than the average February pitch at Maine Road in the 1960s.

Are you being sarcastic or serious, HelloCity?

Grey is the new Grey.

Is that just the insulation and cladding over it or it the finished article?

Sarcastic works for me ! BG shaft wall whilst practical and reasonably cost efficient is nothing less than dull ! :-(

Used to sneak up on that roof as kids. Already looks better in its stripped down state than it did in the 70’s
