      Yet I think (?) it holds more fans than the new Anfield Road stand. You would need (I think) a double layer stand which no one wants. Villa has one and it’s awful. Plus, the area cannot fit another 10,000 or so fans yet, more infrastructure is needed around the area first. Be patient….

    Billy Hogan said there are NO further plans for expansion at this point, that doesn’t mean that something might happen in in the next two or three years. generate some extra income from the Annie stand also they need to make sure they get the right construction company and the best architect out there to make sure that the KOP & SKD Stands are done correctly without anyone going into administration. I’m like everybody else I would love the stands done now, but think with in 10-12 years both stands would’ve been done.

    I've been saying this for several years. LIVERPOOL - SHOULD - HAVE - MOVED - AND - BUILT - A - NEW -STADIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And look what's happening now. Man Utd and Jim Ratcliffe have come to the conclusion that a new £2Bn 100 000 seat stadium is the better option. 'A Wembley of the north'. And Liverpool are now stuck in a 61 000 seat stadium, hemmed in from all sides by houses, a road, and a park.
    Now we're not going to be able to compete financially for top players, with Man Utd. Also, players will see Man Utd as the better option financially, but also because of the brand-new stadium with such a large capacity.
    People wanted to stay at Anfield for sentimentality, and for the heritage, but neither sentimentality or heritage buy world-class players, and they don't guarantee success. ffs.

But I'd be surprised if behind the scene the feasibilities for the next stage weren't being explored, including the transport issue.

      What do you expect them to do? They cant do the SKD stand until all of the people in the 2 streets behind it agree to sell up and leave, there is no infrastructure for trains to support the amount of people that go to Anfield now let alone if they added another 8-10K seats in the Sir Kenny stand.
      The club probably is worth 5 billion now, when FSG bought it the club were down, now they got a elite academy and training facilities and upgraded Anfield Stadium plus won alot of trophies with Klopp there, that just means there were smart in buying the right club at the right time.

      I don't agree with that.
      Anfield has an immense history and inheritance from its past and I think many supporters in England as well as around the world like me (Im from Tuscany,Italy) appreciated the fact that FSG property invested on the stadium.
      Anfield can be furtherly expanded and redeveloped to the modern standards requested nowadays.
      The proof is the Main Stand and Annie Rd expansion.
      Of course there are many issues and obstacles to take over like the A road behind the Kop and the Skerries Road houses behind SKD.
      It will take time and patience but Im pretty confident that in the next years they will find a way to complete the expansion.
      Now Anfield is asimettrical and both stands are not at the level they should and deserve.
      I think it's also an interest for the club making these stands more spacious and more profitable,with more seats,more services and amenities.
      Anfield will keep its history fascination but at the same time will be more modern and attractive.
      Hoping that all the protagonists involved (Liverpool municipality, local community and property) work towards the same goal
