What a great video. Thanks a lot.

The concourse areas of the newly developed stand reminds me of Wembley.

So we should be right at home!

It is impressive and fans will love it. Especially as you can goto both levels whilst in the stand. Well we did on the test event. Great view and a decent team to watch.

Does the North Stand Concourse join into East and Colin Bell concourses, or is it accessible only for North Stand fans?

From where I sat at the event it connects with the west stand

Will give it a Poznan on Sunday see if it's been built well.

Time for a thread title change

Officially announced as the Pep Guardiola Stand, hoping there's a physical sign constructed for it

Brilliant news!! Well deserved and a big fuck off statue outside the ground please!

Im really happy Mansour has spoken on Pep and the fact he fully agrees with the new name of the stand. I wonder if he will be there Sunday

 

[richards30]

I wonder if the Tifo fitting is ready in the stand and how fitting would it be for Pep to get the first one?

Not sure about "big fuck off", but

I started this thread a few years ago, and wondered at the time if the stand would be named after Pep eventually.

Well here we are. What a fitting way to remember the great man himself.

The BBC say that "the expanded section of the Etihad is set to open fully for the first time on Sunday when City host Aston Villa on the final day of the Premier League season."

I am not expecting the Sky Bar to be open for the weekend. That's quite a significant number of seats.

I think it’s safe to say the skybar will not open as it appears it’s just an empty shell at the moment ,reasonably safe to assume it’s opening will coincide wish the opening of the hotel ???

Is there any place in the stand for a permanent Pep Guardiola Stand signage? Bit like what they have at the swamp for the GPC. Or will it just be a tiffo on Sunday ?

[ashleycaulcott1]

Is a physical signage going up in his name?

 

[LEXSTARproject]

The East Stand would have been better for both, as it's not going to fit in with all the branding we saw for Medlock Square

But if you are doing the new North Stand, "The Josep Guardiola" to give his real name and use the sky walk to put the letters on

This AI mock-up would not let us use his name lol

Welcome to Bob Smith club legend lol
