@ StanPark re: Stadium
Look at the financials of it.
A new stadium would be the best option only if money was no issue.
FSG stated that the target figure of 60k could be achieved at half the cost if we redeveloped rather than started new.
From a financial point, the best option is the redevelopment. To argue this is insane. Not only that but Anfield is our home, the heritage and history is unique, to throw it away is a horrible idea.
I was against the redevelopment, but now I support it especially if the wider area is redeveloped as it is a cesspit. It is a rough area but its the wrong location very poor transport link I don't get this anfield home business few supporters who attend anfield live in anfield and most are from outside Liverpool and many outside the uk. Given the way football is going it makes sense to build a stadium with quality transport links and that is not or never will be anfield as an area. Once again a club with no ambition and stuck in the past

I know Anfield is well cherished by the fans, however if we want to be a big club then we need a bigger stadium and one that integrates within the modern society.

Once again a club with no ambition and stuck in the past the stadium needed to be built around about Burtonwood, slap bang between both airports, two major motorways and main line railway station, tremendous oversight by the club to even contemplate building a new stadium in a densely populated land locked area with no infilstructure to support the current 45k stadium never mind 60k, sorry if this is too negative for some...

Aldo you are absolutely right the are building as per 1905 when the residents of anfield rode to the stadium on their bikes wearing cloth caps. We need proximity to an airport train and road links which to me is Speke which also happens to have lots of land. But moores rejected it for this anfield home claptrap

see how it works thumbs up JJ. simple really I would be more in favour of a 3 strikes type ruling, you get warnings when you overstep the mark, when you are two strikes and risking a ban you will tone it down because you will be on a probation for a month where u have to be careful what you say, after the month has expired you get your warning rescinded, if its open everyone can see how careful they have to be. The only problem would be for someone like me being on 2 strikes, people seeing it and then delibrately trying to provoke me so I get banned. I suppose every idea has good and bad points I suppose...

Burtonwood would also have been brilliant

this is the only site i use, ive made a few stupid comments but ive ignored hundreds, people get offended too easily, or get worked up to easily. i dont wind people up but there are people that i know i can have a discussion with.
you get the odd few people who are there to just annoy you but i dont respond, and that ends the conversation. Hooray back on topic ! Yeah this is the only one I use now too. I am sure there are better places for people like ourselves mate (a lot of others here too btw)but this is the best of a whole bunch I have looked at.

I actually agree with you on this one, a stadium with the best transport links that's easy to get to with parking would have been fantastic. But moving to far from Andield would also have been a disaster.

The Stadium was meant to be serviced by the Tram project that made some people a lot of money. It would have been like Milan. A real shame that greedy people abuse their positions.
The current plan is to reopen the old train station during match days, and improve the links (ie buses) from the city centre.
There was also talk about the East Lancs, but I never knew how that would work.
