North Stand Construction Discussion

I wonder how many local fans sold their tickets to tourists ? - the tickets came from somewhere
A large proportion of tickets are being given/ sold on to ticket websites via the club. Hence why there are often rows of seats available on those sites for league games in particular.

The way tickets are distributed is a real issue, that we need to sort out before the north stand is built.

The ticket price issue has reached Khaldoon.

The ticket price issue can only go 1 step higher, and that is to Sheikh Mansour.

The ticket price issue is at the top now within City.

MUEN.

But Al Mubarak also stressed the need to raise prices to continue boosting revenues that can be reinvested into the team, which continues to achieve unprecedented on-field success.

"This is a very delicate issue for sure. I appreciate the feelings of our fans when it comes to a very important aspect, which is the price of a ticket," said Al Mubarak.

"I want to try to explain this very difficult balance that there is always tension between investing, growing, meeting more demand, being sustainable and financially viable, and at the same time, taking care of our core fan base and making sure they have affordable tickets and they continue to enjoy their football in the way they always have.

We need to find ways to generate capital and revenue. Every pound coming out from that revenue has been reinvested in the team and continues to be reinvested in the team. So we have to again carefully tread.

"We're talking very closely to our fan base to make sure that we're able to strike that balance in an appropriate way. It's a balance. I recognise some of our fans obviously are not satisfied on the pricing side of it. We have to find solutions for them. That is our job.


"We have to work this out, but we also have to grow and we have to find the right commercial avenues for the club to continue to grow and to generate revenue, which inevitably then comes back to support the team and support the success that you've seen and that you will continue to see.”

I’ve cropped out the ESL2 overhang and other bits of the original picture.

The 2nd picture is an enlarged screen grab.

The picture quality has suffered a bit.

140444/NMC/2024|Non-material amendment to Planning Permission 136763/FO/2023 to vary the wording of Conditions 2 (Approved Plans and Documents) to make elevational alteations

The Applicant is now proposing a further NMA to Planning Permission Ref: 136763/FO/2023 to agree a slight change to the rhythm of the hotel and commercial building façade bays.

Proposed Description of Development

The proposed Description of Development of this Application is as follows:

“Non-material amendment to Planning Permission 136763/FO/2023 to vary the wording of Condition 2 (Approved Plans and Documents).”

Proposed Non-Material Amendment

Following the granting of the Planning Permission, further detailed design development has been undertaken in relation to the North Stand development and specifically in respect of the hotel building façade.

This original façade condition for the hotel building included a ‘two-on, two-off’ rhythm of fritted to vision glazing, which was ultimately determined to be acoustically vulnerable to flanking sound transmission as rooms would effectively share either side of the same mullion in the facade with no internal lining behind. The proposed amendment seeks to slightly change the hotel façade from a ‘two-on, two-off’ rhythm to an ‘on-off, on-off’ rhythm. It ultimately retains the overarching conceptual approach behind the façade with glazing sitting behind architectural vertical ‘ribs’ connected to the curtain wall system.

Without the facade shift, the detail at the central mullion would require two layers of dense plasterboard to be run through to the glass on each side, creating an awkward visual both internally and externally. This requirement is eliminated with the half bay shift.

To ensure consistent detail and visual continuity across City Square, the mullions have very slightly shifted also on the commercial building.

Not the best look that, doesn't help fill with much confidence that oversight.
