yes - 2.5 to 3 hours before. 

Legend, cheers!

It was probably made worse by the fact it was a Manchester Club and likely that more away fans than normal would also be driving in your direction. If it was a London club they'd likely be heading for the train. I think that the traffic in all directions is heavier these days. Going to the game, I used to take the M53 direct to the Wallasey Tunnel entrance. Now I stick to the side roads because you can hit the end of the queue at Bidston.

And the fact it was a huge game on a knife edge, and a great performance, would have meant a minimal amount of early leavers.

It needs better public transport though. You don't want thousands more leaving early to beat the rush like in other grounds (that are better served by public transport than Anfield).

A new league attendance record set today. 60,061.

A new league attendance record set today. 60,061. 

So the away section corner to complete and the back rows of the lower to top 61000.

[LOHAG]

Let’s just imagine that the current ground was sitting  on a footprint which was relatively unrestricted in terms of further expansion.
If we were to repeat a MS on the SKD and a AR type single tier replacing the kop.
Anyone have a clue what capacity would be then?
Would look amazing but would have thought that capacity would not improve massively given the upgrade would be to modern standards.
I’m not dismissing the fact in cannot happen. I’m just bored really and a little curious.

Personally don't think it'll ever hit that number

There's always a lot of unused corporate in main stand and there's segregation between home and away fans

I think there's 500 ish more to come from the corner being filled in and the disabled seats at the back - I think.... The away wheelchair section is moving to the back too and the front being filled in with more seats but I could be wrong

I'd be amazed if we officially hit 61k though

The official capacity may well be over 61k but as you say it'll never actually quite hit that number on a matchday due to segregation etc

i feel betrayed and/or cheated.

[William Regal]

What's the reason behind us not finishing off that little corner bit of the lower tier Anfield Road end?

[laddo]

It's currently being finished.

Ban the Manc c*nts until they sort their vile c*nt fans out and have a 100% home crowd. That'd do it.

Found mine tonight with a little help. The rain had been that heavy that it was a bit difficult to see the writing.

Yeah, some of the stones are in bad condition.

Some literally bad no writing visible on them, I was looking in the wrong area for mine (doh) but will have a look Sunday

Even knowing the area, it took a while to find it.

The highlight of an otherwise depressing night.

I spent hours looking for ours! Unfortunately I wont be at another game before the end of the season and it's closed other than match days. Hopefully it'll be open before the end of the season. I wanted to take the kids on the tour but I'd like them to go when the pitch is looking green.

Thought it would be quite nice to get a replica of mine for at home but they're charging £70 for it! I've spent enough already and its only one of the smaller stones!

[Danny Boy]

Is there any further news on the fan zone which was supposedly opening underneath the stand?
