      With the club now taking control and able to appoint another contractor, it'll be open fully by end of November at a guess.

      Can't help feeling we should have built a new stadium from scratch, our stadium looks all over the place, roofs at different heights, crap corner fills or no corner fills, access etc. Just looking at Lyon's new stadium being used at the Rugby World Cup, now that looks a proper stadium. I don't even like the architecture used on the two new stands.

      Don't get me wrong, love Anfield, it's history, it's tradition and the Kop, I just think everything becoming a bit Adhoc and no foresight. I always feel you lose a lot of atmosphere with no fans in the corners.

      I’ll take what we have now over any modern stadium

      No no no no and definately NOT

      Anfield is full of history, it means so much to so many people, the games that have been played there over years and years would all be lost if we moved or built a new ground, there is nowhere like it especially on a European night under the floodlights, oh all that passion would be lost, I've lost count of the amount of times that players from the opposition have froze in front of a baying kop, it's exactly perfect as it is, it's not meant to look like a pristine ground, it's Anfield and home and that's just how we love it  ;D

      There's so much cultural heritage attached to Anfield and especially the kop, that it would be an almost impossible wrench for most fans to leave it. You make some salient points, most matches at Anfield these days are no more imposing than anywhere else, with the real power of the crowd reserved for mostly later stage European fixtures. Could that unique atmosphere be recreated at a new stadium...I'm not sure.
