      I'm now free from double thread madness. Rushy do you expect a complete overhaul or do you think they will go with existing design and try to accomodate an expansion at alater date?
      Just to be clear I hate Rick Parry with a ****ing passion and no I don't want to talk about it.

          Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

            He'll probably be there as well!

            My own gut feeling (and that's all it is) is that they will compromise with the existing design, maybe 'glam' it up a bit and enhance the corporate side. However, having preached for years that there's no way we can now build more than 61,000 as that's the capacity restricted by planning permission, building regs, fire regs and safety certificates, etc, I think the best that will happen is that the plans will somehow be 'tweaked' to be expandable in the future. Either that or we scrap the plans and go through the whole process again from scratch. Personally, I'd rather do it right than do it quickly...

            There is a light that never goes out. RIP Alan "Mally" Johnston and the 96. YNWA.

                              You're welcome.

                              Is that the car you totalled the other day? I'm no mechanic but to my untrained eye I'd have thought it needs more than a service.

                              Coincidentally my car is probably failing its MOT as we speak.

                                Liverpool hope any changes to their new stadium plans can be achieved within the same timescale and planning 'footprint' already outlined.

                                Revelations that new owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett have commissioned a review of the plans for the club's new 60,000-capacity Stanley Park home have caused consternation amongst Liverpool City Council and community officials.

                                But chief executive Rick Parry said: "A review is in progress, but the new owners are very aware of the current planning approval and it's link with the regeneration of the surrounding area."

                                Parry took almost five years of discussions with council and community leaders to get the current plans through a torturous planning process, and the club have no wish open up the debate again after so much opposition and appeals.

                                The whole scheme only won approval because it was part of a major EU-backed scheme to improve the area around the stadium.

                                An increased capacity would mean major discussions with regard to the infrastructure, parking and road network around the Stanley Park scheme, and that would be time-consuming and very difficult to achieve.

                                It is believed Hicks and Gillett have been made very aware of the intricacies of English planning law and the effect any major changes would have on the city's regeneration plans for the Anfield area.

                                Suggestions of an increase to an 80,000-capacity stadium have been dismissed by Parry, who said: "I have no idea where that idea has come from, seemingly plucked out of the air."

                                He added: "We are planning that the stadium would be completed within two or three years, and we do not want to alter those plans. There is no desire to start the whole planning process again."

                                Hicks and Gillett are looking to tweak the current plans, but are aware of the need to stay within the footprint of the current planning applications.

                                They believe there is some scope to add more seating, and part of that idea is one already voiced by the US moguls to explore the possibility of underground executive boxes, a familiar part of stadiums in the States.

                                If Hicks and Gillett can get perhaps another 5,000 to 10,000 into the stadium, that would be the very top level being considered.

                                Liverpool City Council are believed to have already been made aware of the new ideas and it has not been met with initial opposition.

                                But council leader Warren Bradley, in a Daily Post interview, has warned: "If Liverpool FC want somewhere bigger they've got to understand the planning process.

                                "The last thing we need is the regeneration of the Anfield/Breckfield area to be stalled if Liverpool brings forward a new plan.

                                "It could put it in jeopardy now that the plans have gone through the planning process and appeals. It is important that the people of Anfield/Breckfield see the plans moving forward that will bring a new park and district centre."
