Really surprised that the main stand is still not finished!!. Nearly two years to complete one stand is a joke. How long does refurbishing changing rooms actually take.

First it was summer 2016, then December, and now by end of the season. Ridiculous.
No wonder we can't make decisions rapidly on the ARE, or our transfer targets.

Yeah - spot on. The board members need to pull their fingers out and get on with the final fix.

You do know that one thing has nothing to do with the other.

I'm trying t find where the 'state of the art' comes into the dressing room? A USB port? And a leather seat.

Months of waiting.... and discussion about all the input the players have made.... a little underwhelmed

You're seeing just 2 pics of the bit they get changed in. There is a hell of a lot more to the whole dressing room 'complex' than just that room.

[sms1986]

It looks fine and if the players are OK with it and it does what it needs to do, then I don't see the problem.

It is currently 'state of the art' all the newly built changing rooms look that way. Look at Wembleys.

[Jake]

The new shop looks way bigger in person than on the photos. It's gargantuan. They're building some nice new builds across from the Sandon at the minute too which will hopefully bring a bit of buzz and business to the local shops.

[Kopout]

was there any pics of away dressing room or are they still using temp dressing rooms?

Previous room was a set of wooden bench in a tiny room with coat hooks for the shirts.

New room has more room, media facilities for half time and pre-game analysis, a seperate room for treatment (hence the lack of treatment table) which also has further area for ice bath area and showers and so on.

You're looking at once picture, that's all, All modern changing room are more than just a sitting area.

What's the story with the dodgy brickwork?

[TepidT2O]

It's a pattern isn't it?

[Kopout]

[Brian Blessed]

I think he means the column on the left doesn't have the pattern all the way down. Presumably it's not finished or it's the angle.

[CraigDS]

Neither end column has it all the way down. Looks like a design feature.

I can only go off the photo posted and referenced, not in person, but in that the column on the lefts pattern stops before the bottom of the top windows. Not so for the other three columns.

The left column looks smooth in the visible bottom third. Not so for the far right column.

[Big Red Richie]

If you look at the bottom of the middle column, just above the hoardings, it goes smooth in the last couple of bricks.

Presumably the columns design, smoothness/rustic look is staggered at different hights, over several columns.

Glad to see the club reintroducing the rustic staggered smoothness bricklaying style that the city of Liverpool was once famous for.

Not entirely true, you can also go by the photos on the link provided above, which includes this one which shows the right hand column...

You've got to love a pedant. 

[Durlmints]

Columns are looking good.

Looks like something's run into it.

[Big Red Richie]

Ah. Stevie G's back.

Run through brick walls for the club, would that lad.

What has happened with the plans to fit out the ground floor of the new Main Stand with the mega store? Is that still happening? When's it due to be finished? Any pictures of it?

Not the standalone store near the Kop..... the one in the Main Stand.

Thought it had been binned as a result of the standalone one?

[Welshred]

Correct.

[RedorRed]

So what's going into the massive space now then? Another restaurant?

[Jonny-B]

I think there was a large indoor warm up area mooted at some point. That may have been binned and i maybe misremembering however.

The indoor warm up area is done nearer the tunnel.

It's currently marked as 'future expansion space' but possibly will be player's car park in the meantime, one of the ideas that's been floated.

[RedorRed]

Players car park? They arrive together on the new Team coach............. a big pub would be great!!! Create a Planet Hollywood type place with loads of memorabilia pictures, video screens and the worlds longest football stadium bar :-)

And they got the shop in the Kop too... is that closing when the shop shop opens?

Funny that, they all drive home in their own car's which are parked in the Centenary car park. Wonder why that is. As for your planet hollywood suggestion, is there something wrong with the traditional pubs of the Albert and Park and numerous others around the ground? Or you want a club-owned, sanitised modern football, Soccer AM style pub? Sounds amazing.

[RedorRed]

No nothing wrong with the local pubs other than sometimes difficult to get served. The big pub doesn't have to by shite...... if it's the fans that have the input in how it looks a feels.

At the end of the day..... it would be what we make it!!! If it's a shite soulless corporate pub.... no one will use it

[CentenaryBoy]

Slightly off topic but when I saw those images from White Hart Lane on Sunday, all the ex-players and supporters saying goodbye to their old ground, I can't tell you how great it felt knowing we wouldn't have to do the same. Spurs are hoping to build a 60,000 seat stadium; if the Anfield Road End redevelopment goes ahead, we'll have the same size but still be at 'home'.
