LIVERPOOL
are set to unveil plans
that will make their new
stadium the biggest in
British club football.
American
owners Tom Hicks and
George Gillett will
submit a revised design
to the local council
later this month for a
60,000- capacity ground
which could eventually
hold 80,000.
That
expansion will eventually
make the stadium bigger
than Old Trafford
Liverpool co-owner Tom
Hicks said: "The
city council's planners
will receive the final
plans on July 25.
"The
initial capacity will be
the 60,000 previously
approved, but the design
will accommodate an
eventual capacity in the
high seventies."
Manchester
United can fit 76,000
fans into Old Trafford
but further expansion
would be difficult. So
the news that Liverpool
are planning a £250m
home which could dwarf
that of their biggest
rivals will delight
Anfield fans
Look out
for the pictures
Coming
Soon...
