If the UK wasn't so archaic and allowed drinking in your seats then there wouldn't be an issue with all the queues and delays... it would also mean staggered toilet usage. There would still be halt time spikes, but not as bad. The other issue is that with improved choices a higher percentage of people will be going to get food/drink than compared to Goodison. That novelty will probably reduce, but the biggest factors need legislation change.

Nobody likes their beer more than me, but I have never got my head around the halftime pint, I go to watch the match not miss big chunks either side of halftime. Even if you make it back in time, where’s the enjoyment in drinking out of plastic and paying £7, then necking it down in 5 minutes!

I like a pint don't get me wrong, but not sure I'd enjoy being covered in beer when we score.

I go to the match to have a pint and put up with the two lots of 45 minutes i have to deal with in-between pints.
We've just built the best bar in Merseyside in that South Stand - i intend on using it

Ha ha, don’t get me wrong, I have plenty before and after the game.

New fifa out soon.

Will be good to see the new ground on that.

Looks to be missing some of the late detail, like the ad boards around the middle of the stands, and some of the last minute branding like the South stand wall paint and the players tunnel walls. They eventually updated Anfield in FC25 with the toaster extension, but not sure if they'll touch HD again.

I'll spoiler the clips for anyone who's waiting for release instead.

Limbs!

Crying laughing

That last one is so funny.

Lots of hate in the comments around "games gone" and telling folk to just enjoy the footy... fact remains that there is a demand for this high-end experience and we as a club need to be offering it and reaping the revenue benefits.

I don't get why people get upset to be honest, it's not as if it's all the seats in the stadium - you can still have the 'proper' footballing experience, why let the fact this exists get under your skin?

I do think it's a case of people moaning about literally anything and everything on social media.

It annoying all the inconvenience we have to put up with in the name of stopping that kind of thing - only for it to be having zero effect.
