Be interesting to see what other blocks of south stand would be given to away supporters with the increase allocation

They wont the club side that months ago that the away allocation will stay the same. They could give them the bottom tier depending if loads move to the new tier in the north stand !

Travel Plan Management

4.1 Overview

In order to maximise the chances of success of the FTP, it is important to have an implementation strategy with clearly identified roles and responsibilities to maintain momentum.

The most successful Travel Plans have management support and dedicated staff resource to manage and oversee them. It follows that the decision to develop and implement a Travel Plan should be a formal commitment at the highest level of the organisation in liaison with TfGM and Manchester City Council.

That’s one of the biggest things I wrote in my responses to the club.

I talked about the need for more transport to Victoria Station as well as Piccadilly and mentioned green buses going to/from each station before/after games so that not everyone getting on the small number of buses now are all just going to Piccadilly and it would free up some Picc bus space for those who are only going to Picc.

It’s not 600 hospitality seats. It’s 648 hospitality seats. And if we’re being really persnickety about the proposed hospitality numbers in the North stand expansion, it’s 1224 seats.

Front 648 seats.
Back 120 suites.(seats)
Sky Bar 456 seats

Safe standing is listed as an ‘option’.

That aside, there are already 13 hospitality venues inside the stadium. (and 5 hospitality venues offsite)

Yes, but don’t confuse GA + with the ‘suites’… they are likely to be boxes/fine dining.

I’m interested in the suites. Has anyone found out any info about them. Looking through the PA over the last few days has worn me out. Lol!

This is a massive own goal from the club, as many posters have said give the North Stand to the core support, you only have to have seen the game yesterday to see what GA+ sections are doing to football. Look at what Club Wembley has done , sorry tried to get a photo of the section.

Another thing having this section in the North Stand will play to the empty seats jibe that we get all the time as these 648 people will having there Joe's burger when the second half kicks off

Again, you don’t understand what ‘Joes’ is. Normal fans, paying for normal food. It is not a corporate set up where everybody fucks off for a meal

How can you say it’s ‘normal’ fans? It’s not… it’s fans who can afford stupid prices for shite food and an extra comfy, padded seat.

‘Normal’ fans don’t spend that much. ‘Normal’ fans do not buy a hospitality season ticket.

We already have tons of ‘hospitality’ and they are the most sparsely attended areas of the stadium - hardly conducive to a good atmosphere!!

Fans that can afford a padded seat and a few extras can be normal fans with spare cash. As for the expensive food as in 93:20 doubt it’s any more expensive than the rest of the ground. Sounds like you haven’t been in there and are confusing premium seat options with the hospitality restaurant options.
They’ll be just as conductive to the atmosphere as somebody in any ‘normal’ level 2 block or in the middle of a third tier block, or will you be saying they can’t move to the North stand either as not conductive to a good atmosphere.
Sounds like judging fans on how much cash they have, bit daft, seems to me.
If those 600 seats do become premium seats with their own bar area I’m sure those fans will join in same as any other fan moving to that section.

Your wrong mate, plenty of people can afford 93.20 and Joes, it's basically a bar with basic food, hardly the Ritz...
