New Anfield



LIVERPOOL FC are to unveil a new planning application to make their stadium the biggest in the Premiership.

If approved, the 80,000-capacity ground might not be open until nearly 2010.

The Reds are planning to reveal changed blueprints for the stadium to city planners on July 25.

They will showcase a 60,000 cap-acity stadium, with the design able to accommodate a 20,000 extension later.

Liverpool’s new billionaire owners are keen to push the Reds’ total event-ual capacity to close to 80,000.

If that went ahead, the new Anfield would be bigger than the Old Trafford home of rivals Manchester United, which holds 76,000.
