North Stand Construction Discussion

[jrb]

Started cutting the steel framework on the gas holder down over the last couple of days.
Thats another project for Jrb to monitor.

I will probably down before I do my next set of pictures. Going to give it a couple of weeks.

Preview. Hence the watermarks.

May the 10th, so a little dated.

I think we will be surprised how much progress will happen in a couple weeks now. Off season, better weather, longer days, cruicial elements already complete. We have been spoilt with the photos and drone videos, hope it continues over the coming weeks when some really interesting works take place.

This week and next is pretty crucial to the off season programme, Lots of strip out going ahead so demo can move forward, Vent plant coming out this week (and then reinstalled). I think it will be w/c 3/6 where we start to see some big changes.

Found out last week that Sisk are putting up some of the sample areas in the CFG not sure about the facades but they are doing a full sample hotel room over there.

Where/what is the CFG, sorry? If not the obvious. Interesting how early they are doing the sample rooms. Take it they are not doing provisional sums for interiors then. I also take it you know the brand then that's on board for it.

Sorry wasn't very clear, by CFG I meant the training complex where CFG staff are based.

Either they are keeping the provider a secret or City are planning on running it independently. There isn't a brand standards for it though which leads me to the latter.

Very interesting you should say that. Might pick this up via pm at some point.

As a place for potential mock-ups, makes sense, close enough but not through the main working site to get to for clients/planners etc. Think they can also leave both up for a fair length of time to use as control sets.

Any news on the North Stand being re-named once the expansion is completed?

No

It's a no brainer isn't it!

6 PL Titles.
The Treble.
This Means 4.
World Club Champions.
European Super Cup Winners.
The English Domestic Treble.
The English Domestic Quadruple.(*Community Shield)
5 Trophies in a calendar year.
4 Carabao Cups in a row.
100 points.
A possible Double, Double.
The list goes on and on.

The Pep Guardiola stand.

I will be absolutely amazed, unbelievably disappointed, and annoyed if Sheikh Mansour, Khaldoon, and Soriano don't make the decision to name the new North stand - home end after Pep.
