We’re going to the City women v Arsenal game tomorrow and plan to park in the stadium car park. I know this can be madness for the men’s games but does anyone know how busy it is to get into and out of the car park for the women’s games? We’ve bought the ticket already so I’m just working out when to arrive.
I realise this may be impossible to answer but I think about it whenever I walk down this street.
Behind Piccadilly, New York Street has some nice places to eat and drink.
But what is the meaning or origin of the name? Is it NEW York Street i.e. an updated or relocated version of a previous York Street, or is it NEW YORK Street i.e. a reference to a large metropolis on the east coast of a former British colony?
We just came back from the pre-opening test event for the extended North Stand. The whole stand is just two tiers; the one next to the pitch and then a single run from above there to the top of the stand. There is no dividing line from hospitality suites like the one that creates a third tier in the other stands. Concourse areas are nice - smarter (though I think some have been temporary while the works been going on). They’re hoping to sell tickets for the Villa game on Sunday. Photos are from the back row - one wider angled than the other.
At a lot of Premier League matches there are huge banners covering the centre circle or portions of a stand. How are these manufactured? I haven’t been up close to one so am not sure if they are stitched together from lots of pieces. But even if they are then the pieces must be big in themselves. Can anyone explain please?
