How do you know this
Are you an expert from 10 miles away
Could you please stipulate exactly what is still to be done
How long does each particular part of the remaining work take
Will the weather play any part
Did you change hands at 99 and are the baby wipes to your left or to your right

| Quote ="theredshed"I may be wrong on this arliebird but I'm sure both standing ends behind the posts will hold the same number of supporters. (From the images I've seen the terracing at both ends looks identical to me) The only difference is one end is deeper due to adding changing rooms for the two community pitches opposite. My guess is both ends will hold in the region of 2000 - 2500.'"
If the stadium holds 12k then I reckon each end will be 2k. They look tiny really. I'm not sure they will hold that many in practice.
The main stand looks around 5k with the other stand about 3kish.

Though with all that sand the drainage has got to be top class.

| I have this theory , I drove past Barton the other day , what is that big compressor for , with that big air line into the side of the main stand ?
I could swear the whole thing was rocking in the wind as I drove past
It's a big inflatable stadium , isn't it , go on come clean , their going to pull the ' plug ' out on Wednesday aren't they ?

| Something just occured to my while posting on another thread.
Would it be a good idea to encourage RL fans to come to the game and maybe bring their families to shop at the TC? If someone at Peel could find a passenger carrying barge to ferry fans to and from the game then cars could be left at the TC. It was only the other week when I rode around the new site that I realised just how close the TC and ground are and how easy it would be to get to and from each if there was some form of passenger service, this might also tempt fans into useing some of the TC facilities for drinks and meals before the game?

I assumed from the very start that this was the point of using this location. Shocking decision to put the stadium there if they are not intending using the TC.

Agree it would be fantastic but the problem could be that the Trafford centre is no longer part of the Peel empire it was sold to Capital Shopping Centres Group in January.That's why our new sponsor will be Media City and not the Trafford Centre.
So we would need to get the new owners to see an advantage for them, but I'm sure it should not be beyond the marketing people to show that rugby fans bringing there family to the Trafford for a days shopping while attending the game would be worth there while

Think it's owned by the same guy so think the commercial viability of it would be all that mattered.
Not every family wants to watch RL but I'd suggest that if you said to your partner and kids do you want a trip to the TC to do some shopping if your say from Huil where they don't have the same massive shopping complex it is an enticing prospect.
Free secure parking coupled with a free transfer to the game would be a good idea.
There is also the fact that many of us who like a drink at the game would find it a lot easier to get to the TC than the ground, a few drinks in either of the Weatherspoons at the TC then over the canal to the game would make for a good game day experience.
