When Purslow first talked about redevelopment he talked about two phases over ten years and I definitely recall seeing a 60,000 target. It went quiet and much talk of 50,000 but they must have kept the bigger plans on the background

It won’t be the Trinity, they are just about to spend £8m on new dressing rooms. Let alone the new corner seats and reprofiling.

Witton Lane will have the space to build big, while only losing 10,500 seat for part of the season.

Well I can’t see much movement at all in sale of houses on Holte Road (the appropriate numbers) or McGregor Close so I think it’s only a log term plan atm.

Its amazing they’ve owned that land to the east if Tame Road since 2018. It fits in with local area plan but there’s no sign of any movement forward since before NWSE.

...if that's the case we need to send Dion Dublin and the 'Homes under the hammer' lot around there and get cracking!!
...a 20,000 Witton Lane stand would be San Siro size..enormous

I think the main stand at Old Trafford is 25k

After checking, Liverpools new Main Stand is 20,500...and I'd imagine it would be something similar that we are looking at? Don't think they demolished the old one and built around it?

They built around the large lower tier, we don’t have that on witton lane, so it could compromise the capacity of any new stand.

Interesting times though.

The North Stand is slow going, from what I saw on Thurs, not much done to the actual stand.

Yeah, but the Corner flag building is still half-demolished for example, and nothing else done on it since Nov.

Yeah, would seem a harsh reaction - demolishing WAGS and kids just cos the players blow kisses and wave up at them every game.
