Or people are underwhelmed by what the club has proposed for the NSL2 home end.

Dear
Manchester City Football Club is exploring options to expand the Etihad Stadium.
The vast majority of matches are sold out and further demand for tickets remains. An expanded Etihad Stadium would allow more people to watch City with a range of new facilities and ticket prices to cater for all budgets. Extensive supporter research clearly indicates that there is a strong desire for more general admission tickets and a variety of matchday hospitality offerings.
Should the expansion go ahead, some areas of Colin Bell and East Stand Level 2 could be upgraded to enjoy an enhanced concourse and access to a private bar.
This could mean a direct impact on the area in which you currently sit. With this in mind we wanted to inform you of these proposals before they are communicated to the wider fan base.
On Friday 12th July, the exhibition which forms the first phase of consultation on the Club's proposals to expand the Etihad Stadium will open. We pride ourselves on our positive relationship with our fans and are therefore keen to seek your views on these proposals.
Just as we did at the outset of our plans to build the City Football Academy - now midway through construction - we have created a consultation facility to inform you of the Stadium Expansion proposals and to gauge your feedback.
There is nothing you need to do at this stage. We will contact you in the coming months as part of the on-going stadium expansion consultation process to provide further details of these potential changes.
Details of the potential stadium expansion can be viewed at the Etihad Stadium or online at mcfc.co.uk/stadiumfuture. The consultation space will be open to the public from Friday 12th July.
Kind regards,
Danny Wilson
Director of Sales, Service & Operations

Briefly looked at the thread and it was 2010 when the original new expanded padded areas were being proposed and Garry Cook dismissed the assumption on here that the entire East and CB level two would be padded

I’ve got friends in 204 who left their seats to be on the front row if CBL3 a few years ago because they knew the premium ticketisation across the rest of East Stand L2 Colin Bell L2 was inevitable.
It’s not good for anyone to be forced out of their seats but my thinking is that it would be better to complete the Joe’s / 93:20 and Kits of the remainder of East and Colin Bell L2 and leave the front of North Stand 2 as regular seats. E.g. 93:20 goes behind the South Stand without interrupting the seats in the stand.

Yip and as I've said, not a chance they're not going to hugely expand premium seating

Which has absolutely nothing to do with whether fans expectations are met in the designs for them to consider making the move over.
