You can hardly move after the game coming out the Kop trying to get down the street, you get a massive bottleneck of fans trying to get both ways on the corner, that’ll surely be even worse with a few thousand more to the capacity so it’s hard to imagine how any upgrade to the Kop would be even possible, where is the space coming from when the current road only just manages as it is?

All the bars and other concourse facilities are closed after the game.

Which I always found odd. The odd person is going to want a four pound pint of warm carlsberg for the walk back. They should staff it and see how they get on.

You're allowed to drink at all sports in Oz but virtually all bars in the stadium close about 10 mins before the end of a match. They want everyone out of the stadium as soon as possible for staffing/security reasons and they don't want people to take travellers when they leave.
And all the world is football shaped, It's just for me to kick in space. And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste.

Works well at Brighton, I think they do it to help with congestion on the trains after, they leave all the TVs on and the bars open for a fair while afterwards and it's always busy.

Found the selection helps at Brighton as well - I'd stay for a better pint than a can of Carlsberg poured into a plastic pint glass like the Kop is at the moment

Think half the problem, certain with 3/4 of the stands anyway, is the concourses are so small that it prob wouldn’t be all that safe having some people trying to buy drinks / standing around whilst the majority try to get to an exit.

That drone footage and the others last week really show how quickly this is progressing. The entire stretch of Anfield Road that runs along the outside of the stand has been dug up and new foundation structures are now in place. No home games for almost a month have obviously allowed the contractor the time and space to do this. It'll be interesting to see how they reinstate the road ahead of the next home game on the 30th.

They have definitely trialled keeping bars open in the main stand in previous seasons, as well as the kop bar which was great after weekend matches (or after the Barca match) but that's currently being used as a vaccination hub.

Also the local public transport arrangements are terrible, especially evening kick offs so you're lucky if it's a bus an hour.

Getting back on topic to the ARE construction, I must say the overall coverage of the construction and build has been shite from LFC. Contrast that with Evertons excellent coverage of the BMD build. They have some very interesting videos up on social media regarding particular aspects of the build. If it wasn't for the few individuals doing drone footage we wouldn't have a clue what's going on. LFC just couldn't be arsed it seems.

Used to talk here about how little Anfield earned per seat compared to some other clubs. The Main Stand hospitality areas have gone a long way to fixing that but 'keeping' people in the ground after the match increases income for the same capacity and eases traffic after the game (but buses are definitely the way to go rather than hugely expensive bits of railway and the like).

That said, I'm not sure how popular afters in the ground are. I suspect the facilities and the beer is not good enough snd the prices not sufficiently attractive. Also too many wanting to get to the local and out of their cars or out in town.

That's because BMD is all Everton have. They also dress the diggers onsite up in Everton crests and blue paint. Liverpool don't give a shit about the ridiculous posturing, they just get things done. The Bitters have nothing to get excited about when it comes to actual football, and needed to get an LFC legend in as manager in order to sort them out. All their eyes will be on BMD and the club will milk that for all it's worth because it deflects from the abject state they've been in since the 1980s.

Everton make pretty pictures and videos and talk a lot. Liverpool just get on with building stands, teams with winning mentalities and winning trophies.

I don't know much about the rail link concepts.  I seem to recall, either during the proposed Stanley Park move or shortly after FSG taking over, that serious expansion beyond 60k would require the club to put in a rail link.  Think the council were adamant on it.

I distinctly remember this being the case for H&G's "futuristic" monstrosity. If I remember correctly, the initial plans were for a stadium capacity of around 60k but the stadium would be sufficiently large enough for around 71k.  If you look at the first pics of the proposed design, one end of the stadium had a massive TV screen because most of that end wouldn't be occupied by spectators. The 71k capacity would only be permitted if transport links were improved and that included a rail line.

Edit: initial design

I'm interested in seeing the thing go up but there is fuck all to see at the moment. They're forming the ground beams for the cores and the column bases for the upper levels, the new seating and roof supports, but there's an awful lot of rebar to be put in place before they actually start pouring the ground slab.

I saw the comments about the amazing job Everton are doing with their coverage of Bramley Moore Dock... Err... some pictures of the dock, a piling drill and a few branded diggers.

I know, when some people comment on the coverage, they never bother to think of why. Liverpool have delivered the Main Stand on time and on budget, the same with Kirkby. They've built a track record of delivery on big projects. Nothing to prove, no need to make a fuss.

Everton on the other hand have fucked up a few new stadium moves prior to announcing BMD, they've then prevaricated for 5 years and still haven't got confirmed funding. Given that even their own fans expect a stadium update after a shit result, what they are doing is a completely obvious move. As we know, they'll spin absolutely anything.

It's all about placating the natives by convincing them there is progress.

I just think Everton have done a good job with putting up updates on the phase of development thats going on at BMD. There clearly is work going on there. The interview regarding the dredging and the engineering re the dock itself was quite interesting I thought. If ye want to take the piss out of me for saying that then off with ye. LFC have posted a total of 4 photos since the spade in the ground event by Jurgen which is poor coverage I think. Especially when third parties are doing lots of drone coverage to show the construction advancing every 2/3 weeks. Would it be so hard for the club to buy a f**kin drone and do that? Their coverage of the Melwood development was also rubbish. I also work in the industry so have an interest from that perspective too.

I did enjoy the comment that the only reason Everton are doing so much coverage of BMD is that they have f*ck all to show re the on field stuff so this is a nice distraction for them!

There's bit more to it than that! :D Like I said they could do some simple drone footage of it. Maybe talk to one of the senior contractors on site and give an update etc. Not sure why I'm getting such a hostile reaction from people on here about this.

Because it’s a tad weird to be critical of a lack of updates for what is prob the most boring part of this - all the site prep, etc.

Weird? How so? I dont think it's boring. You may do. There's lots going on. I could say you're weird for not thinking the way I do. Its something I'm interested in and clearly you're not so no hassle.

There's bit more to it than that! :D Like I said they could do some simple drone footage of it. Maybe talk to one of the senior contractors on site and give an update etc. Not sure why I'm getting such a hostile reaction from people on here about this.

Everton started the Bramley Moore Dock in 2018. Three years later they haven't even filled the dock in. Their only drone footage is a dock full of water. If you find that exciting then maybe you should fill your bath with water and take pictures of it for the next three years.

They've only started filling it in now sure. :D Clearly you didn't see that video. Whether BMD is ever completed or takes 5/10 years I couldn't care less but at least there is a bit of coverage of it. No need to throw out insults.

The reason the club hasn't bought a drone and interviewed a contractor is evidenced in the responses to your posts. About one in a million people is interested, mate.
