North Stand Construction Discussion

[Stretford Born Blue]

Is there hospitality in the corner of the South stand that hasn't got a large led screen, and where the concrete mezzanine floor had been extended outwards? Thanks.

Yes, a pub like bar, been there a few seasons now, behind the seats.
We all sit in block 120 below it in the second tier.

The pitch is to the right pal.

Was at the stadium today for a meeting, got these three shots


View towards lobster claws next to the Arena





No photo but I also did notice a couple of the panels in the roof step down from new North Stand Roof to East Stand Roof were in place too

Not all of the pictures are off the North stand, but I decided to post all the pictures.

Sorry, something went wrong with the video I took inside the ground yesterday.

The video started off ok, then for some reason it went into slow motion as I'm panned around the Etihad. The sound was f*cked up as well.

I had to delete the video.

I’ll try again against the Rags.

I did take some pictures which I’ll post later tonight.

I honestly thought that you'd done that on purpose to be artistic.

What is the projected capacity in the upper tiers of the North and South stands?

 

[ssskies]

I have hundreds of these

Video from today, I'm away for a few days now so next one will be Friday.

Didn't realise I deleted my sound file in error, video re-uploading. Holiday and rushing round doesn't help!!

I noticed that Everton’s new stadium has the steepest gradient in the stands allowed, nearly 35%. Does anyone know what the gradients of the Etihad stands are?

That is just one end at Everton

Fuck, she looks beautiful!

Once the hoarding separating the new from the old is away and it joins seamlessly to the existing, it will look spectacular.

Was thinking exactly the same.

It’s a pity the powers that be don’t want a dare I say it a proper kop end for all the singers.

At least they said they are willing to extend the safe standing if the demand is there. So that's something.....I guess.

Surely the demand is there. It would make more sense to me, to make these changes now, before people get seated and used to not being stood up.

Surveys or something similar would make sense, if we want to find out about demand.

The entire middle section should be standing as well in my view
