Also here is a quote from Manchester united staff. Don't believe me, but here is what the clubs official stance is. Perhaps you know better than the manchester united staff does.
George Johnstone, United’s Group Property Manager, said: “There are two limiting factors to any possible expansion of the main stand – primarily the railway line, but there are also several privately owned properties beyond that which could be an issue if a new stand was to span the railway and have footings in that area."
So Manchester united group property manager says there are LIMITING factors, but Stanley Park, semi retired CA, Liverpool fan and avid Koptalk member knows better.
Do you ever know when to just accept the fact you might be wrong or are you now going to accuse me of not substantiating my post?
I am quoting united staff here.
if you would like a source I will gladly provide it.

Nice googling marko but surely those are temporary our limiting factors will be permanent unless they knock down the refurbed anfield and start again. I know which problem I would rather have. One other thing utds present capacity is 75k still well ahead of our proxy 58k

No one is disputing they have a bigger stadium at the moment, but you keep carrying on about how they will soon have 90k. They won't have 90lk soon, at least not as a certainty. Their limiting factors are temporary. Ok. SO are ours. We can fill the corners with stands.

I was going to, but then I decided it would be easier for me to just google it.

I drive past old Trafford at least once a month and often see it from the lowery centre it's immense anfield is not even remotely close had we built on Stanley park at least we would have had a chance of keeping on their coatails maybe to 80k. I have no doubt whatsoever as long as the demand is their United will go to 90k it's part of the long term plan for the stadium you can see by the shape look at it on google earth

Honest question: do you really believe that Herc? Do I really believe what Duncan? Are you asking me about the comparison debate with Maxi or about us possibly ending up like teams struggling at the bottom of the PL? I’ll take a chance on the latter: I believe that can happen to any club that doesn’t invest properly regardless of their resources. Even LFC was in the old 2nd division when I started following us, and we were a strong club relative to the rest prior to that calamity. Look what happened to Leeds, and there are others who dropped from the top down through the divisions. So yes it can happen if we don’t invest properly. Whether it will come to that I can’t say, I sort of hope our fans wouldn’t stand for it. However as we see here fan’s attitudes are changing, and not for the better unfortunately, expectations being managed perhaps. Yeah it was the latter, fair answer / opinion. Leeds is irrelevant to the investment side of the argument (unless you're an "FSG lover  ) It was over investment that took them down. Love them or hate them, FSG are money men and have acted quickly in their short time in charge, sacking Kenny & Comoli quickly when it was evident it wasn't working. They aren't in the business of losing money  The way I see it is, barring a total mismanagement of money (cough*) the worst we could do is mid table, more or less the same for Utd or Arsenal. The reasoning for that is just down to our marketability, popularity and massive fan bases. The same couldn't be said for Newcastle, Blackburn or even Tottenham, in my opinion anyway. As for fans attitudes changing, I only see it as being realistic. We all want the best for LFC, but the game has changed since Chelsea & City waltzed in with their cash. In the end neither of us can read tea leaves so this is all a bit out there - maybe it's hope rather than anything I'm clinging to here.
