Title: Manchester Utd increase Stadium
Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, February 3, 2005, 23:01:34
By 7,900 seats including new exec boxes.  Thought to be worth an extra £5 million a season in income.

Work will start at the end of the season with the development due to open in August 2007

Takes the Mickey that sort of cash...

don't they also have plans to build the old south stand to match the new 3 tiered north stand??? or vise versa.
Think they have problems cos of the train track which runs beind the stand.
would be such an impresive ground if they get the go ahead for that too
