North Stand Construction Discussion
- Thread starter awest
- Start date
Miles more possibly 100k? But only a fraction would buy a season ticket if offered.
In your feedback to the club via the questionnaire, did any off you ask for a hospitality area at the front of NSL2? (no, neither did I)
Cheers Danny!
You and the other City directors have well and truly shafted the fans on this one.

Would they hold up telescopic flags and wave them, 2 stick flags, and spend their own time to setting up a display, and putting up, dropping down, and taking down a 100ft banner along the front of NSL2?
Just had a thought the extended ground was one reason the Etihad was chosen as a venue for the Euros 2028 bid I wonder if they were persuaded or chose to add more corporate areas to maximise the bid ???In your feedback to the club via the questionnaire, did any off you ask for a hospitality area at the front of NSL2?

Why are we surprised though? The club carved a middle section of L2 in the South stand and turned it over to corporate, moved fans from long established seats to create a L2 ring of corporate seating, removed pitch seating for added advertising funding, created hosp on L1 in the centre sections, etc etc
Like UEFA, legacy fans are to be shoved in around corporate areas to provide 'authenticity'
Think of those dollars to be made placing more corporates in the new stand, with a direct path to pre-drinks / canapes in the new hotel etc and a lovely sky bar (that no normal fan will ever see) that raises the roof so any noise made in the stand doesn't funnel back into the ground.
Looks yet again like a real kick in the teeth for those campaigning for a true home end if 12 front rows are now corporate.

Yes, thats being ignored, I expect they will be 93:20 / Joes type seats, which are no different to any other fans, just get access to a separate bar area. Not corporate at all.

Don’t like the look of that at all.
Imagine Rags or Scousers in there jumping up when there are 8,000 nutters in the stand behind them…

So it appears that it’s initially going to be seated?
They fk off 10 minutes before half time and reappear 10 after the restart ! That's going to improve the atmosphere!

Exactly this.
You can do a surfer flag instead. :-) But it means missing the players coming out. On second thoughts forget it. Works on SSL1, so might as well do it there, unless that’s going to be changed by the club as well into another hospitality area after the move to the NS?
