They wouldn't be able to see this one either.

You would as it's at an angle and that's the most extreme position. The steelwork they're putting up isn't for any kind of additional cover - it looks exactly like the kind of support structure you'd erect for a big screen. Probably a repeater for the Kop end of the Upper Main.

The skyscraper ladz have put all the speculation to bed. It's an LED screen. Confirmed. They've won this round. The shits.

Well you should know then that Castle Grayskull was where He-Man and his mates used to knock about

Sounds like an Eternia version of Byker Grove.

Latest pics. pitch looking great

Just a bit of a bar I'd of thought.

Annie road seats could do with replacing.

Love what they've done with the name and number shirts

[Giovanni]

I doubt they are putting a score board up there given those who would benefit from it can also easily see the one already in place. Plus also not sure how much it would impact the view given the narrow nature of any (unlikely) scoreboard and the fact from that angle it probably stops a view of the lower kop seats more than anything else.

Were you on annual leave when FSG sent the weekly memo?

I must have been. Just seems a strange place to add one as surely everyone who can see that one can also see the one between the Kop and Kenny Stand?

Hopefully they haven't bothered replacing them because the entire end will be getting replaced soon.

Assume they must have had complaints, and you can see on that image further up the page not everyone can see the kop board - and this is angled.

Can't believe it's 70 mins gone and we still haven't scored

[Alan_X]

Can't believe it's 70 mins gone and we still haven't scored

That's what happens when you kick off at 9.50 in the morning.

That's what you get with Can and Hendo in midfield

I can't believe it's 70 mins gone and we haven't conceded!!! :-) have they not had a set piece?

Can't believe we'd have complaints about not seeing the scoreboard. It's not like basketball(yet) - can't people count? 

[RedorRed]

Have people seen the changes Manchester City have done to their changing rooms and the new tunnel club...... looks amazing. The changing room is what we should've done.... instead of having that huge kit bin in the middle of the room.

It's prob more to.do with people wanting to see the time remaining.

Need to know when it's 85 so they can get off

[Sevens and Eights]

*facepalms*

[Sevens and Eights]

One day  i'd like them to show the accrual of stoppage time, in real time. That should mess with people's minds... one clock winding down, the other winding up. 😜

You think, I thought theirs looks terrible. Like some dystopian futuristic meeting room.

You should always have lads closer together. its way too posh as well. not sure why people arsed about this

It will look amazing if you want to pay £200-300 a ticket. It has fuck all to do with normal fans.

I know I just thought the finish of everything just looked better....
 But as you say you pay for all that.

[Giovanni]

it still looks fucking shite all around the escalator and stair areas. Would have thought it'd have been sorted over the summer but looks lik its staying that way.

Wouldn't be happy if I spent millions on something and the builders finished it off like that.

Pic? Hard to understand what your seeing

[MikeD]

he's referring to the stairwells and escalators up to the top tier.

load of unfinished concrete joints and painted blockwork.

The stairwells to the upper kenny have a superior finish.

[Giovanni]

What Mike said.

[CraigDS]

The stairwells to the upper kenny have a superior finish.

to be honest these were only redone pretty recently. Until then they were looking pretty scratty.

Yeah, had a look at the Man City tunnel cam (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tabkbtHA5g) and the whole place looks extremely modern, and finished very well. Here's a tour of it, including the changing rooms: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6hR9TM-Hjo

In all fairness, as nice as all that is, I do still prefer the older days (I'm in my 20s ffs, I shouldn't be saying that!).



All that tiling, giving it an authentic bathroom feel.

[Brian Blessed]

Why does the pitch look so mottled, because it's very new grass? I'm sure it's smooth as.

[TepidT2O]

Seeing the whole area begin to look so much better is great....

[sms1986]

Probably, isn't it also partly artificial?

Was that the first time we've had spider cam at anfield?? I've never noticed it before anyway!!
