They would have to tackle the problem of road infrastructure but when they originally decided on a new stadium they tried for a 75k seater, but the council knocked that back because of the road layout,so they know that, but with Mr Hicks & Co you have the extra money to maybe widen roads or even possibly build a new road system to accomodate.

I think making the ground bigger can only be a good thing, as to transport isn't there plans to put a railway nearby and other kinds of transport???

This decision wouldn't of been taken lightly, so it all sounds good to me.
I just hope that they built it so the atmosphere is electric.

Reds owners suspend stadium work
By Phil McNulty
Chief football writer

Liverpool have put preparatory stadium work on hold
Liverpool's new owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett have suspended work on their proposed new stadium and ordered a review of the plans.
BBC Sport understands the pair want to examine ways of increasing the 60,000 capacity of the arena in Stanley Park.

Liverpool have targeted 2009 as an opening date for the stadium, but if major changes are made, there would need to be a new planning application.

It is expected the review will take weeks rather than months.

Would you prefer 70,000 or 75,000?
