New Seats Set For Current Season Debut
Fans who attended the 4-2 win against Fulham will have seen it for themselves: the expansion of England's biggest club stadium is continuing apace.
Construction work on Old Trafford's new North-East and North-West quadrants is going so well that club officials and building contractors Laing O'Rourke are confident fans will use parts of the new stands before the end of this season.
United's project manager Gary Hebblewhite says the club is delighted with the progress, especially as building work has had to be stopped - and a clean-up job done - before each and every home match during 2005/06.
"With a development like this spectator and visitor safety is paramount," says Gary.
"But with our experience of expanding other areas of the stadium over the past decade we believe that there has been very little disruption on match days.
"There've been times when we've had a lot of home games in a short space of time but we've got a procedure in place that we feel has been a real success and we've managed to maintain the capacity."
Gary says fans will begin to notice changes inside OT during the next stage of the project, the internal fit-out.
"You can see the impact of the development externally but the real impact will come when we remove the gables between the North and East, and the North and West stands," he says.
"This will create a bowl effect, which is when fans will see the sheer scale of the development. I anticipate that being by the end of February."
As with previous developments at the stadium, supporters could be allowed into sections of the new stands earlier than the official opening. Birmingham in March has been mooted by the press but Gary insists it’s far too early to suggest a date.
"With any major development you've got to make sure that all the life-safety systems are working as they should do," he says.
"That means emergency lighting systems, fire alarm systems, exit gates, turnstiles and so on require testing.
"At this stage we allow stewards and other members of our matchday safety team to review the new areas. Only when these exercises have been done will we consider opening the new areas for spectator use.
"We've done this on all our major developments and we will be looking for opportunities to use these areas prior to next season."
It's not just the construction work that's making excellent progress. Sales of 2006/07 hospitality packages have gone so well that only a few packages now remain in the five new areas.
