I'm pretty sure we can all survive a few days guys, plus not much changes every day. I feel for you both sometimes, the monster you created with the need now taken for granted that you guys do this in your spare time and for the joy of it. Great stuff, but don't let it turn something you like doing into any kind of burden.

Thanks Coatigan I enjoy seeing the changes to the stadium and suppose we are documenting it for generations to come. The mancunian way car park can be a pain but being appreciated is well worth it. Cheers
 
does anybody know what the plans are for the circular area at the start of the video are please??

Interesting that when they cut off the old roof they left the support for it , and I am not talking about the tension net the actual bar that connects to the tension net is still there .

removing the old roof seems to be taking a long time, Those very expensive cranes on the pitch do not seem to be doing an awful lot.
 
it looks as if they are doing one roof section at a time and taking it apart on the pitch before starting on another roof section. Either that's the plan or it's no going as fast as they thought it would be going. We'll see next week, which will be a better indicator of what the plan is.

It's taken a week to take down that old section. Be lucky to take them all down and repair the pitch in time for the new season

It's not just about taking the old roof down,there is lot of preparatory work goes on before each section can be moved.
And they are also working on the new roof at the same time.
Check in again on Friday and I think the majority of the old roof will be gone .
They've got another 3 weeks before the handover

Watching the videos , Sisk seem very relaxed about the whole build , dread to think what’s in the contract if they miss the hand back , agree look again Friday /Saturday and I’m sure you’ll see a massive difference

It only pays well if you provide excellent content and people want to watch it.
You and ss provide the excellent content and we want to watch it, which in no way implies you will be getting a redundancy package at the end of the project.
Keep up the good work.

As I commented on one of Colin's videos, even if they're ahead of schedule, this is Manchester and they should be pressing on as quickly as they can. You can't take the weather for granted.
