Stadium Expansion

[DiscoSteve]

I heard it was this model

roof off, north stand third tier done first ;-)

Lots on Twitter that the club have told some fans group (who I don't know) that they plan to expand the north and south stands to bring the ground capacity to 60k, your thoughts and opinions?

I beleive if City carry on like we have, it will be needed

when maine rd held 52000 it was rarely full but wasnt a problem, bring it on

Maine Road was nearer 60000 until the north stand became seats

It held 63,000 in the 1960s.

Feel lucky to have been seen a view of this whole thing, stadium, the surrounding areas last 24 hours.

All I can say is incredible. The area will make the Yas Marina look like a high rise in Hulme.

Any clues on what is on the surrounding areas?

Phase 3-5 most likely?

If Phase 2 is stadium and collar site as GXCity suggested.

That's some statement Tolmie...Yas Marina is pretty special looking.
Does it make up for your disappointment on the relatively functional nature of the training complex design?

Although I'm not asking you to give anything away, where there any clues (from the plans you viewed) as to the nature of the 'anchor' lesiure tenant?
And does the stadium lookin particualarly different or is it merely an expansion to the north and south (and possible new roof)?

BTW - did you track GXCity down and ply him with Magners to get this info...? :)

Another 2000 City fans camped in the away end again.
