A lot of stuff around the stadium for the non-football-fan-fans who want to be Man U supporters but don’t want to have to, you know, actually do any supporting as such.

It depends how widespread the wider redevelopment is. Anything south of the Ship Canal/Docks (e.g. the current site and the adjacent proposed stadium location) is within the remit of Trafford Council; if the wider redevelopment incorporates areas on the the northern side of the canal/docks then Salford City Council will also become involved. |

Looks like it'll be Trafford rather than Salford then, judging by the maps/mock ups I've seen. Thanks for that info @Nelly .

Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham welcomed the plans. He said: "If we get this right, the regeneration impact could be bigger and better than London 2012. "Manchester United could, and indeed should, have the best football stadium in the world. "To me, that means a stadium that is true to the traditions of the club, affordable to all, with nobody priced out." Got to love the last 4 words, best joke Andy has made. |

Did they deliberately make the mock-ups look like a circus #ironyisnotdead

Did I not read somewhere though that club grounds cannot exceed the capacity of a national stadium- this would mean either United need to scale down a bit or Wembley would need an upgrade too - what’s Wembley 90,000?

I've not seen anything to that effect, @honestmackem . Some nations don't even have a national stadium though, and who would be charged with enforcing that? Can't imagine that being a thing that would fly internationally.

No. I can't see that being a thing at all either. Unless it's an FA target more than rule?
