Liverpool submit new planning application – next phase in Anfield redevelopment being considered

With the new Main Stand still on course to be more or less completed in time for the start of the 2016/17 Premier League season, attention is now turning to the next phase of the ongoing redevelopment of Anfield.

According to the official site, we have now submitted another planning application to Liverpool City Council.

Sadly, it is not an application for an expanded Anfield Road end, though that remains the club’s long-term ambition. Instead, it is for a new “fan zone”.
The club wants to create a “dedicated facility” for the supporters to gather and enjoy festivities before and after games.

It will include:

• Food and drink stalls
• A stage for pre-match entertainment and interactive fan activities
• Pop-up retail units for the sale of official club merchandise and matchday programmes
• An LFCTV matchday television studio
• A new club store

Aren't we getting a new pitch as well this season?

 

[FoxForceFive]

Meant to be done once the stand is finished, so as long as it's not late, yeah.

Yea we were getting a new one in last season but it was postponed due to cranes on the pitch this year. And I think we've asked for several fixtures to be played away right at the beginning of the season to let the new pitch bed in, not really to finish the stand.

Apparently the head engineer of the project was quoted as saying that "They have 99 problems but the pitch ain't one"

Don't really speak to the lad on the groundstaff there that I know anymore, but I know someone who occasionally drinks with him. I'll endeavour to find out what the plan is.

I hope to pour some water on it is part of the plan.

It looks thirsty.
