There are lots of words it could spell, I prefer this one.

Livvy can you do me a favour and put that photo up but rotated 90 degrees to the left so that you can see what I mean about the LFC

My PS3 doesn't have a kop end! WTF!

but can it seat 60000 people?

[Dero]

I am glad that the corners at the sides of the Kop will not get filled as that would take away some of the imposing nature of the stand.

[dom9]

That is exactly the point.

Anyone know which way round will the ground be?

Will the Kop face (and don't say the pitch! ) Anfield Road with the "Anny Road" end facing the Crem on Priory Road?

The Kop will back on to Anfield Road I believe.

Racecourse car park plan for new football stadiums

Aug 1 2007

by Larry Neild, Liverpool Daily Post


A HUGE park-and-ride scheme based at Aintree Racecourse could provide a solution to transport problems for Liverpool and Everton FC’s new stadiums.

Transport chief Neil Scales last night confirmed that talks were under way with the owners of the racecourse about basing a major park-and-ride service at Aintree.

It could mean thousands of motorists leaving their cars at the course and heading in shuttle buses to the stadia, easing traffic problems around the two grounds.

Mr Scales, chief executive of Merseytravel, says the park-and-ride scheme is one of a number of major solutions proposed to ease matchday parking problems across North Merseyside.

With the course used for racing on only on a small number of days a year, it would avert gridlock in the main roads around the area. The course is within easy reach of both the M58 and M57 motorways.

Other schemes which could help carry supporters to the proposed new grounds could also include restoring the Merseytram Line 1 project from Liverpool to Kirkby, using the potential arrival of Everton FC in the town as a catalyst.

The existing Merseyrail electrified line is also to be extended by about a mile to serve Tower Hill, with a new railway station within walking distance of the new ground, should it be built.

The Merseytravel plan also envisages a major new transport interchange close to Kirkby town centre. New user-friendly cycle and walkways will also be developed.

Last night Mr Scales said: “I cannot be drawn into the debate about whether Everton should or should not move to Kirkby. However we see major improvements taking place across North Merseyside as part of the regeneration of the area.

“Of course a firm decision by Everton to move will change matters and will give impetus to the regeneration and improved transport links. We are already involved in talks with council officials in Liverpool and Knowsley about transportation.”

Around 38,000 Everton fans will vote this month on the crucial ballot which will decide whether the move to Kirkby goes ahead.

I don't know Liverpool like the back of my hand, but it sounds like these developments could help us in our quest to get an increased capacity stadium in Stanley Park.

I have to disagree. While I like the imposing steep nature of the Kop, it looks like a half done job with those corners left open. Please fill them in as soon as possible Mr Architects and Mr Planning Approvers.

The designs for the inside of the ground are yet to be completed but the club are still looking at starting work this season.
