Hicks seems to to have a
very sure and
well-plotted plan for
exactly what the 'new
Anfield' will be and it
would seem his ambitions
for have no bounds.
Liverpool
"First
of all it's going to be
unique to Liverpool. It's
going to be built where
the most prominent
feature will be the new
Kop.
"The
new Kop will be bigger
than the old Kop. It'll
be more prominent. It'll
be, our architects
referred to us, like the
symphony stage to the
rest of the symphony
hall. playing
"We'll
create the stadium where
it is an entertainment
hall around the Kop. It's
not going to be
symmetrical. It's going
to be unique.
"Each
side is going to be a
little different, which
is the way stadiums have
grown up in England. I
think it'll tie into the
tradition. But it'll be
centred on the Kop.
"We
have to get permission to
let it grow, we're going
to build it where it can
have a much larger
capacity than we have the
approval for now. right
So it
may be even bigger than
the proposed 61,000
seats?
"We're
going to build it where
it has the capacity to be
much larger than that.
We'll build it at the
smaller size to start if
that's what we do, but
somewhere along the line
we hope to get the
approval from the
transportation
authorities to be able to
handle more people.
Somewhere in the mid to
high 70s."
