If there are any extra seats at some stage I doubt they'll go as season tickets. Same as Liverpool are still at 27k ST holders despite their capacity increases.

I’ll say it again, anyone hoping that a North Stand redevelopment will help to get more GA fans in (or reduce the ST waiting list) is in for a rather nasty shock.

I’m not sure the new seats lend themselves to GA+.  The extra space from moving the offices was probably needed just to get the stand up to current standards to buy burgers and whatnot.  I could be wrong but I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt.

The new wedding marquee in the Trinity car park could easily host a few hundred GA+

I assume the extra rows on the upper tier would replace the existing boxes and, with that, the space vacated by boxes would become GA+.  However I consider that a like-for-like swap, despite an increase in capacity.

Well I had a nice complimentary stay in the 150 club for Saturdays game.  Soup, burger, cheesecake free beer.  To my amazement some people stayed in there during the game.  By the way they need to do something about the sun in the evening.

Stolen from another thread, but mcateer kinda confirms plans for the North Stand.  No big surprise I suppose.

I thought he was infamous for being stupid but he comes across as articulate and knowledgable in this clip.

Can't see how he would know any more than reading the same things we have?

In the interview he mentions having recently met with one of our head honchos (a guy from Man U, can’t remember his name).

He's talking shite, isn't he? He said Emery (or Emeré, as he calls him) didn't work with Monchi (Munchy) at Sevilla. They were there together for three years.

He was wrong about Emery and Monchi not working together but what he said about his conversation with our COO was interesting.
