North Stand Construction Discussion

[Bluekiwi]

Interesting video

Name a man name that no one mentions on here, Roel De Vries ?

Typical ill-informed presenter. He intimated that the rags and scousers have three generations of loyal fans whereas City's fan base is young based on recent success. My family has at least four generations - not sure about my grandfather as he skipped off to the USA in 1923 with a French lady.

No I’m retired from a career in construction , and whilst I appreciate everyone can have an opinion , I get tired by people slagging Sisk off . Between them and the architect and structural and mechanical consultants all I’m seeing is a competent team doing their best with a challenging build on a very constrictive site . Maybe a bit of praise (if begrudgingly ) is due ? Just my humble ( slightly informed ) opinion of course ;-)

Were you the former Sisk spokesperson by any chance?

It does seem to have stopped doesn’t it?

I reckon its because there's still work to be completed under the roof at that side of the stand for the skywalk route - when that is done and dusted (and scaffold down) then they'll restart the seats all the way across - my uneducated view.

No , not at all

“Eddyhad” ffs! There was another video with that pronunciation (AI maybe) a while back that was equally bad and had stolen footage from one of our hard-working drone pilot friends IIRC.

‘Ciddy’ is another one.

Did Seats installation became slower ?

I'm told* it's cos some of the blue seats need moving from the centre of the stand. This to make way for some white seats to spell out a fookin huge 115.

Went to the etihad tonight, got there around 8pm video here, wanted to check on the stand seats, also looked into the museum office block shop floors.

Looks like a boudoir

That will bring the punters in. The blokes anyway

Ollie Anglesea, frontman for The Lilacs, talks all about his earliest City memories, as well as what it means being a City fan

 

[Corky]

Is he a protest singer or is it a semi unplugged? Maybe a busker as a sideline.

Well we’ve had wonky roof , wonky brickwork , but now they all seem ok , why can’t people just wait till it’s completed before calling it out ?

I pointed out the wonky joint because it looked pretty scruffy when I saw it in person.

But generally I think the whole development looks brilliant up to now - probably why it is so obvious when you see something that doesn’t look up to scratch.

Said it before and I’ll say it again, it looks so much better internally without the corners done. Just feels wholesome and complete.

The weather is going to be nice on Sunday, thankfully, so I'm going to do a construction picture update.
