Man City building their new stand behind the current one as well. £17 odd for a double pint of Moretti at Leeds Arena too.
Looks like the Corner FLag has been resurrected for next season.

Quote from: Duncan Shaw on June 28, 2024, 01:28:31 PMI was there last night with my best mate, who is football agnostic, and his brother who is a Blues ST holder, but otherwise a totally sound guy. As we were walking up from Aston Station he quipped "this will be one of the last gigs at VP" cue we had a bit of bantz about my skepticism that they will never build it, and his belief that they will. But we had a really good chat about things for both of us, and from his POV their new owners have got everything right off the pitch (apparently have spent millions on the shit-tip) but are a car crash on it, and ours recently are the other way round. We both agreed concluded that VP is a great "arena" when you are sitting watching the game, but so much of the rest of the experience is really not fit for purpose now for a major sporting establishment, and if they actually ever do build it (I said IF!!) , we will lose any "leisure" stuff like last night to a more modern arena. Even he was peddling the line that it will be a "city centre" venue though, which I just don't have any truck with at all.I've been to 2 of the Foos gigs on this tour and I would imagine plenty others would have been at London, or Cardiff and many of the concert goers would have found our facilities wanting.Which is why I do not understand how so many here are perfectly fine with Heck coming out and saying that he decided last November that doing the new stand was a bad idea and we are instead watching them invest in making our shittest stand a more of a GA+ experience. What are they playing at?
