RICK PARRY has admitted it is imperative for his club to move to their proposed new stadium as soon as possible in order to keep financial pace with their major Premier League rivals.
Figures released on Monday showed Arsenal's move to the Emirates Stadium has driven a near 50% increase in turnover with operating profits for the year ending May 31 up a massive 274%.
Liverpool's plans for a new stadium in Stanley Park are still on the drawing board as they wait for a new planning application to be approved and aim at an opening in 2010.
Parry said: "We have been saying for years on a match by match basis we are too far behind Manchester United and now Arsenal too. If we are to continue to compete then a new stadium is vital.
"The only reason we want the new stadium is to generate extra revenue. It's not about building monuments or vanity, it's about hard-headed common sense to generate more revenue to enable us to be competitive."
