LIVERPOOL | New Anfield | 60,000+ | Approved

i've heard 60,000 and 61,000. can anyone confirm either way?

anyway, there's been (at last) a positive development with this project. thanks to Paul D of the uk scouse forum for posting the news:

New Anfield is back on track after Ģ10m grant

also note that the images on the official lfc website show the single-mast design as the real proposal, as opposed to the double-mast design which is also doing the rounds. example:

single-mast:

The double mast in the old design....it only had a capacity of 55K

LFC wanted the corners filled in.

So that was done, and it's now 61K.

Look like a big Circus tent, I like it.

Does it depend on Anfield Comp school being bulldozed?

The red circle is where the New Anfield will be built.

It'll be further to the south-east, over the car park and sports centre.

Yes as Bunnyman says its slightly further southeast as can be seen from the technical drawing below (taken from the planning application).

I had no idea to be honest.

So I just drew a big circle, in the hope that some of it would be over the area where the stadium will be built.

a great stadium for a great club.

i was very disappointed to see liverpool go out of the champions league. in my opinion they're the most passionate club in the premiership and it's hard not to feel a soft spot for them. of course, i can say this only because when ipswich were last in the top flight we beat liverpool at anfield

get a world class striker and i'll even consider buying a shirt.

Sorry, LFC would be my 2nd team, but why copy what's just down the road if you can't make it bigger? (although it is prettier)

I don't think it looks like old trafford at all. Although you are right about the prettier part. Once again though, potentially another new stadium in this country that doesn't appear to have any scope for expansion.

It might take time but I think it will happen. Now that The Emirate's is just about finished Club's like Liverpool, Everton and Tottenham will be under pressure to increase thier revenue streams. If the finances and demand are right then long term, the best way to do this is to build a new stadium.

And before someone say's "they can't leave thier sacred Anfield and the hallowed turf" and "a new stadium won't be the same". No it won't be the same but why settle for a church when you can have a cathedral.
