So Man City, the club that have 115 charges against them for FFP. Are now spending £300 million on a ground extension. To update the already world class stadium. Yet this is allowed because FFP allows owners to spend as much of their own money as they want on “ infrastructure”. Hmmm

If they put in standing then it's worth it. Lord it's quiet in there!

 

[Crazyface]

Anyhoo, surely we should be discussing the Euros? Will Scotland finish last, bottom or fourth in their group?

Are they extending the number of people in the ground on match day or just seats available to remain empty?!

I'm not be cheeky here but is it not the right size now? What are they doing that costs £300m?

My son has done the stadium tour and he said it was top notch. Intrigued to know what they are doing to improve it.

The north stand is only two tier. They are making it three which means pushing the stand back towards the mega store. Which has been flattened and will be moved. City have clocked into getting the fans to have a beers and pie there before the game. They must be making a fortune out of hospitality

They can’t fill the stadium as it is but a lot more seats will prob be corporate box’s that can be sold for over inflated prices to multiple Middle East sponsers to ensure FFP is met

What’s the crack with watching the CL final?
Apparently I just needed a Discovery+ account that I’ve successfully signed up for but when I try to watch the free stream it says I need a TNT account

You should be able to watch it via discovery plus via the Sky box apps ?

 

[Tashyboy]

gonna paint half the seats red and ground share with Man U.

At the moment it’s the nearest thing Utd fans will get to a modern stadium
Plus it’s not the first time
They would have to ground share

Yeah I’m trying that, it said I needed an account first and now it says I also need a tnt account to watch the stream.

That’s poor when they are saying it’s free to watch - can you create an account without paying anything ?

I created an account on Discovery + then signed in on the app on my TV and am watching it ok...
