No, and I genuinely believe that. Tourists and day trippers with deep pockets are the priority. We have become exactly what we used to take the piss out of the rags for.Serious question: are the grass roots fans important to the club anymore?

In my opinion they will want the grass roots fans, we are ones that create an atomsphere I suspect we will be grouped together in the so called cheaper seats. The club needs us and it needs our identity. May be wrong.No, and I genuinely believe that. Tourists and day trippers with deep pockets are the priority. We have become exactly what we used to take the piss out of the rags for.

Absolutely yes. But we're not the be-all and end-all of the club anymore, like it or not, we're far too big of a juggernaut for that nowadays.Serious question: are the grass roots fans important to the club anymore?

said the same mate! seems such a wasted opportunity with little to no disruption as there were no fans allowed?
barely anyone in the north stand during match days so could still do it now :-D
A mates been on the tour and the guide told him City are working with architects as to the best designs ! Also said expected to happen after the arena is finished as will need to use the arena for temporary housing City Sq entertainment whilst the new stand is built !You can’t just say ‘hey, let’s build a new stand while everyone is away’. It takes months and months, if not over a year, to organise such a project in order to begin construction.
