It looks like they have one set of straps already in place, just some early work by the guys in the swinging cradle should see it lifted in the morning, hopefully. Good luck! Appreciate your commitment.Im hoping so, i can spend some time there tomorrow morning and hopefully capture it being put on the pitch
They need to vacate the pitch six weeks minimum before first home game v Spurs.What final timeframe are we now looking at for this to be completed and ready for a game ..
What did the CFG ever do for us?Another fantastic video. Got me thinking, apart from removing the old roof, completion of the new roof, installation of new South stand screens, painting the East stand steel work, installation of new turnstiles throughout, reconfiguration of the Levels, Blocks, Rows, re-laying the pitch and installation of self serve bars, what exactly are the club doing to improve the stadium in the closed season ?
Probably January, my guess. Finished in December, teething out the way and used proper in the new year.What final timeframe are we now looking at for this to be completed and ready for a game ..
As for the hotel that’s what another 18 months roughly is it ?Probably January, my guess. Finished in December, teething out the way and used proper in the new year.
DockoffWhat's another word for huge?
We play Chelsea and Brighton the Wednesday after both at home early January, it would be nice to have it up and running for those games.Probably January, my guess. Finished in December, teething out the way and used proper in the new year.
It would also be a bit of a coincidence as the opening of the new South Stand was against Chelsea.We play Chelsea and Brighton the Wednesday after both at home early January, it would be nice to have it up and running for those games.
If not Wolves at home towards the end of the month but you'd imagine they would be aiming for the Chelsea game for the opening.
I wonder when we last had a 62k attendance ? @GaryJamesI'm sure it won't be long before we get some 'the ardwick' little bits to top the 62k
Wet weather drone will come into play ( well my oldest drone, not actually waterproof but is insured)Leathering it down all morning. Maybe into the Afternoon as well? BBC weather.
If that game had been played two years later when Swales was Chairman the crowd would have been about 38k.Manchester City vs Manchester United

Was it this?
There’s also potentially a home FA Cup game on 10 January, so a run of possibly three home games and the extra revenue that would bring is quite the incentive to have the stand finished by the end of the year.We play Chelsea and Brighton the Wednesday after both at home early January, it would be nice to have it up and running for those games.

Won’t even pay the late KO fine In realitythe extra revenue that would bring is quite the incentive to have the stand finished by the end of the year.
This time next week I think the North stand's old roof will be gone.
If we are adding 7,910 seats to the pre-existing 2nd tier, then the single 2nd tier must hold more than 7,910.
I saw in some SISK documents that they were talking about a December finish for the stand but might City open transitionally i.e., add blocks of additional seating when the seats and the supporting concourse are ready? Liverpool opened sections of their stand before construction was complete.What final timeframe are we now looking at for this to be completed and ready for a game ..
Maybe not, but the club won’t want to miss out on the thick end of a million quid for the sake of being a couple of days behind or ahead of schedule- it’s all about the money.Won’t even pay the late KO fine In reality
