Liverpool FC stadium move granted
-
Liverpool Football Club's plans for a new £400m stadium have been passed.
The 60,000 capacity ground at Stanley Park has been unanimously approved by Liverpool City Council planning committee, after a five hour meeting.
The premiership club's new stadium will hold 15,000 more fans than the existing site, but that could increase to 75,000 in the future.
The plan was resubmitted to planners after American owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett were unhappy with them. -
Nice stadium but the name Stanley Park is just sucky
