Maine Road

Maine Road was a football stadium in Moss Side, Manchester. It was home to Manchester City F.C. from its construction in 1923 until 2003, when they moved to the City of Manchester Stadium.

Pitch

For long periods of its history Maine Road had the widest pitch in England. However, the width was changed several times by managers wishing to alter the pitch size to suit their style of play. In the final season before the ground was closed, the pitch size was 107 x 71 metres.
