New Stadium and Training Ground - Pg 104 Northumberland Park master plan

Jordinho said:
Early on there were plans for a new massive 80K, maybe even 100K, stadium. After struggling to sell out as it is they probably changed their mind a bit.

I'm hoping our new stadium is being built with possible future expansion abilities.


Have not really heard much about it, but would seem silly to build a new stadium now, and then if we ever want to expand to have to build another.



This may have been mentioned before, i just may not have been paying attention..

I've often wondered this but not seen any other posts/comments on it.

As long as we arent using the same designers as Wolves did for their new stand.....
 
Why dont we include a state of the art medical and physio suite at the new training ground. That way we could do medicals there away from prying eyes and could also perform minor surgery etc there. I read that Man U have one and it allows for much quicker treatment etc

I would be astonished if there aren't top class medical/physio facilities at the new complex.
 
United plan ?ú25m hospital to ward off injuries

MANCHESTER UNITED are spending a staggering ?ú25million to build a "virtual hospital" at their Carrington training base.

The Glazer family, who own the club, have already given the green light for the stunning state-of-the-art complex.

Sir Alex Ferguson is convinced the pioneering project will keep United one step ahead of their European rivals.

United hope to start work on the project next season after conducting a feasibility study into the benefits of housing medical facilities on site.

It will include a new sports science unit dedicated to developing ground-breaking training schedules and tailor-made programme for injured players.

United's remarkable plans also include rehabilitation facilities and top-class fitness and gym areas.

There are even plans for injured players coming off the field at Old Trafford to be whisked straight to the new centre for scans.

United are investing in the latest CT scanning and MRI equipment to make instant medical assessments on occasions such as when Wayne Rooney damaged his ankle against Bayern Munich in the Champions League in 2010.

If the injury requires an operation, then United's players will still be treated at a private hospital.

Back at Carrington there will also be specialist rooms kitted out with dentistry equipment, osteopathy tables and yoga suites.

United intend to conduct medicals there as part of a plan to protect the privacy of new signings. Despite spending nearly ?ú20m on Atletico Madrid keeper David De Gea, he was shielded by minders surrounding him with a white sheet when he arrived for his medical.

Ashley Young was also captured by photographers when he arrived at the Bridgewater Hospital in Manchester last week.

In future, new signings will be assessed on site in the new medical facility.

United have committed the funding for the project as part of plans to reshape the future of European football.

Despite Fergie's 25 years at United, he wants to keep them at the forefront of modern technology and development.

United officials have been stunned by his enthusiasm for the project, but he is convinced it is in the club's long term interests. Although rival clubs have similar facilities in-house, Fergie has told friends that nothing in Europe will compare when it's built.

Milan's Milanello complex has long been regarded as the forefront in player development, but Fergie is convinced United are ahead of the game.

Yes, we will. In fact, here's a picture of it going up now, on the eastern edge of the development;

First non league club to win the FA Cup 1901.
First club to win the Double in the 20th Century.
First British club to win a European Trophy.
First club to host a live English league match.
First and ONLY non league club to win the fa cup.
first club to put ribbons on a trophy.
First club to floated on the stock market.
First english club to win 2 European trophy's.
First club to have jumbo screens.
First British team to play a Black outfield player

Stole some of these (and haven't checked! *brace for impact*) but that's a pretty good list of things we've done first.

Tottenham don't follow, they lead.

I dont even know how they can even count Preston as 'doing the double' in 1888/89. They was only 12 teams in the League and 32 in the Cup, the 3rd round was actually the Quarter-final.
For me, we were the first team to do "The Double"
