The free, almost new, stadium would have played a large part in the decision.
Maine Road was a wreck. It wouldn't project a good image spending hundreds of millions on players yet playing in a ground that was so decrepit.
Mansour lucked out though. He was probably looking at spending a few hundred million to expand capacity. Alot better than spending nearly a Billion on a totally new ground. As it is he has spent a few million on a small expansion which is rarely sold out. He has no need to try to expand the stadium to 60K + as demand isn't there. Has saved himself a small fortune. .
Hello namco. Still obsessed and still delusional. Amusing!
