I think (whatever we think) we all know there is no chance of a new stadium under FSG not a hope in hell. But this thread is about the anfield road stand rebuild which correct me if I am wrong that until a year or so ago was part of the anfield refurbishment plans following the decision not to rebuild the stadium. John Henry claims this is because of the fans not paying as much as he wants. Apart from being hugely disrespectful to the supporters (some of whom have supported the club for a lifetime) it does not hold water the marginal cost of say a £70 or a £60 ticket price within the context of TV and sponsorship money is peanuts. It may be good news it might signal FSG,s commitment to the club is going (not that they had any) and they are positioning to sell up
Maybe JH is trying to play us? He says he might not build it because of a possible ticket price rise then all of a sudden they'll build it and keep ticket prices static so they can try and win favour? Gotta love a good conspiracy!
Or, like you say, they're in negotiations to sell and don't want to start anything until that's sorted one way or another. I'm not entirely convinced by the Chinese rumours from the summer but you never know.
