Ok, here’s what Wikipedia says:
Phase III of the renovations are [b]yet to come[/b], in which constructors [b]think[/b] another deck will be added over the North seats, which will accommodate 10,000 seats.
The overall capacity will be 35,000 seats.
1st of all, I would not trust all the info on Wikipedia. It’s an encyclopedia written collaboratively by many of its readers, as their site says.
So any “moron” with a computer & a keyboard, can write up anything, until someone decides to change it or validate it !
Where are the real sources on this Phase 3 ? Give me some news link ?
All I can tell you from “sources” within the Al’s office, phase 3 went down the drain !
Since you’ve NEVER been to McGill, Phase 2 will already add another level on the South Side.
How the heck are we gonna put up a 3rd level, as we are currently having “problems” with the “tree-huggers” just to add a 2nd level !
I know engineers can do miracles…but that would be plain stupid to have 3 levels on McGill South Side !
You said we’re loosing money like water ? Well, I know a couple of things in Finance, and let’s just say that Wetenhall can make his books say what the heck he WANTS !
As far as I’m concerned, you & I never saw the books ! So don’t speculate, if we are losing money or not !
As for us hosting the Grey Cup, we will host it in 2008 in the Olympic Stadium, so I don’t see your point here ! Big O already hosted a couple of Grey Cups (i.e. 2001, 1985, 1981, 1979, 1977).
Big O is our joker card to host the Grey Cup, we could do it every year if we wanted !
So what we play in a stadium (McGill) with 20000 seats now, which is smaller than most HS stadium in Texas.
Hey, Montreal doesn’t close down when the Al’s play, compared to some small cities in Texas (i.e Friday Night Lights).
My point is I don’t care if we have the smallest stadium in the league, We have the Big O to have the Grey Cup game (even if it $ucks to watch a game there !).
You’ve never been to McGill or Big O, stop arguing on stuff you’ve never seen from your own eyes !
