It say's it restricted to 45,000 seats unless we can come up with transport plans. If so whats the point of moving, and why are the council being pricks?

That's probably just a standard thing. More improtant issue is, is it eligible for the CL?

Anyone heard anything about the deadline for the £9m EU-money which was the end of last month? We had to have the finances sorted before the end of the month, etc. In the above article they say that "......the North West Development Agency confirmed it will hand over crucial millions to the scheme as long as the club can raise the necessary private finance." Does that mean we've got an extention on the deadline (if indeed these money are the same as the EU-money)?

I believe the deadline has been extended..

And the dots after that post weren't meant to make it look all enigmatic. I read it on YNWA.........

Cheers. Did they have any references?

I think someone said that it was hinted at in the Echo, so nothing concrete I guess.

NWDA, said weve got to prove we can afford it by the end of the month.

They said that at the start of last month. Have they said it again this month?

Think so, i think it's on the second page of the article.

Your god damm right!

with the mancs capacity going up to 78,000 were something to the tune of £35M behind in home league games revenue each season. Arsenal is now at 60,000 so something will be done either way soon.

I want a single tier KOP style stand

I want stands as close to the pitch as they are now

I want a stadium that does not resemble a big Reebok

 

This 45,000 thing would be temporary of course, but it really does show how difficult the whole new soccerreebokdome project has been so far. It's just another hurdle.

I think the third one is already too late. The first two are most important though.

I think he missed the word 'Classic' off the end of the third one..

Ah yes, my mistake:

 

I want a stadium that does not resemble a big Reebok classic.

 

Although the design would be quite revolutionary.

This worries me aswell. I hope they don't lose all the characteristics that make Liverpool FC such an enigmatic place to visit.

 

A single Kop tier is a must.

The crowd next to the pitch is a must.

The 'This is Anfield' sign as the players walk to the pitch.

Home changing rooms that exemplify the history and passion of the club and football.

A stadium that is designed to boost sound, if such a thing is possible.

 

We must not lose the feeling that the home of LFC is unique.

Between the new ground and Investment it is going to be a tense few months. I know the two go hand in hand but wouldnt it be nice to have a summer without a drama. I reckon we are due one - maybe next year.

As far as I know it is architects based in Manchester that have made the design.

 

That`s no good!

 

Think it looks quite awfull and I fear it will be out of date before we`ve even kicked a single ball at the ground. At that price it should be more innovative and not look like something that has been made the same day Bolton got their new ground. Is it part of the complete Reebok package?

 

And why on earth can`t the capacity be increased in the future?

 

And stick the 9 mill euros up the arse on the NWAD. Peanuts and shouldn`t be of any importance, but of cause a "nice" little bonus. We paid almost the same for Diao!

 

Think of how many "footballtourists" that come to the city to watch Liverpool. They spend a lot of money that benifits the community and the city in general.

 

I just don`t understand why there isn`t more support from the authorities to get the new stadium under way?

I want to stay at anfield :(

The architects and designs are a firm called buro happold, the building firm that liverpool lined up for the staduim are merseyside based, but have since pulled out.

I'm pretty certain that any opposition would be much diminished if Everton were in a position to do something similar themselves. And they would be too, ifitadnabinfor....

One group objecting will be Joe Kenny and the Anfield Action Residents Committee thought he had crawled under a stone and died but he is alive and well and ready for action :wallbutt: .

When the "kings dock" staduim was annouonced every counciller and his dog thought it was a great idea. The reason were not getting the support is because we've fucked everton off with all this ground share idea, and the council arent happy.

It looks like the funding is in place however there may be another 2 year battle ahead before we can start to build especially with kennycunt chomping at the bit
