- Liverpool FC. The evolution of Anfield Stadium from its origins in 1884. fgnwnfnf8393nn==dkf888mmdf-33
Anfield was built in 1884, but got initially rented by Everton FC. The first game at the ground, on the 28th of September 1884, saw Everton beat Earlstown 5-0.
In 1891, Everton moved out of Anfield after a dispute over the rent, and one year later newly-founded Liverpool moved in. Their first match at Anfield was a 7-1 win over Rotherham.
Anfield underwent several developments in the late 19th and early 20th century, among which in 1895 the construction of a new main stand designed by Archibal Leitch and a decade later the construction of the famous Spion Kop.
The ground remained more or less the same for the next two decades until the Kop got expanded in 1928. Once completed, it could hold about 30,000 fans.
Anfield set its record attendances in 1958 when 61,905 people attended a match between Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Further improvements were made between 1963 and 1973, when the old Main Stand got demolished and replaced with a new one.
Anfield did not host any matches during the 1966 World Cup, which were instead played at neighbouring Goodison Park.
In the 1980s, a start was made to convert the stadium into an all-seater, and in 1982 the famous Shankly Gates were erected. The last significant changes to the stadium were made in the 1990s, first with the rebuilding of the two-tiered Centenary Stand, then with the conversion of the Kop into an all-seater stand, and finally in 1998 with the construction of a second tier on the Anfield Road Stand.
Anfield was one of the playing venues of the Euro 1996 tournament, during which it hosted three group matches and the quarter-final between France and the Netherlands (0-0).
In the late 2000s, Liverpool contemplated moving away from Anfield to a larger and more modern stadium, and even obtained planning permission for a new 60,000-seater stadium at nearby Stanley Park. However, insufficient funding delayed the plans, which were finally discarded in 2012 by the new owners of the club.
Instead, the ownership opted to redevelop and expand Anfield. The first phase involved the reconstruction of the Main Stand, which increased capacity with 8,500 seats to a total of 54,047. Works started in January 2015 and were completed right before the start of the 2016-17 season.
If there is sufficient demand, plans also include a possible expansion of the Anfield Road Stand, which would result in a final capacity of about 59,000 seats.
my grandad was in charge of the 1957 floodlight work
Thanks for your grandfather...
Nick Sullivan they where probably brilliant ❤️👍
They did a great job, look at that photo 1:06 the entire pitch is clear as day. 👍
If you don’t mind me asking, is your grandad still alive? If not what year did he pass away?
I would love to know what the last Liverpool team was he seen.
Liking the song
Did your man swallow?
Wow that piano rendition of YNWA is beautiful!
I love that bill shankly picture when viewing the pitch 😢
The music is very emotional. My first taste of Anfield was going with my dad as a kid around 1970 in the paddock..it was the place fathers took their kids..it was infront of the main stand i think. Then when i was a teenager in the 1970's i went with my mates. Then again with my dad in the Kemlyn road stand in the 1980's...after that a few one offs and then i couldnt afford a season ticket or even the chance to a home game. Early memories Keegan & Toshack, Emlyn Hughes, Highway, Souness etc..then John Barnes Rush Dalglish. But the best player overall ability and what he brought to the game...Steven Gerrard...a one off...
Same at old Trafford when I was a kid,used to go paddock and get put on the pipes at the front.If it was chocka they even passed you down till you got to the pipes! So scousers are human?I never knew! Joke, take care dere lar.
Best club on the planet! YNWA JFT 96 GBNF.
Rather die with my clubs history, than live with your clubs!
Excellent music for a piano version of you’ll never walk alone. Excellent ground for the best team in the world to play in. YNWA!
What piano?
The history of Anfield is the history of Everton FC, the pride of the Merseyside 💙
Couldn’t pay their rent 😂
@@nikkisinclaire4185 That's why you are watching a Liverpool video on youtube ;)
Everton, attempting to latch on to LFCs success.
Pride of merseyside lol
Merseyside is and always will be red
thank you Mr.Henry for the new stand......
Whatever happened between Everton and Anfield Owner/Management team changed history in a positive way. LFC means so much to me, whether they win or lose I'll always stand by them. BTW that piano version of YNWA was so good, made me cry 🔴❤
What happened me little Dark Side cultist is the landlord tried to extort a 500% rent rise from us. So we moved to a stadium which became the greatest pioneering ground in the football world. Goodison Park! You owe us your existence! And you hate us for it! UTFT💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
@@martinkulkarni3569 You left just to stay in the red shadow but well At the end of day we can agree that day brought quality football to Merseyside
@@comradeyoshunov116 That ‘shadow’ only arrived in the mid seventies. For the previous seventy odd years, the Dark Side were very much in our shadow!
@@martinkulkarni3569 Yeah but still I don't see any CLs in Everton's trophy cabinet ;)
Here is why it was Everton’s stadium first is because we Everton was created it was there first ground but then Everton didn’t pay the tax so the tax man told Everton to go and get fined so then Everton went so then the tax man made a new team call liverpool
ynwa. love this club. from my grandfather, father and me and my next generation will always support liverpool.
Alteast your not a plastic like these other people that started supporting Liverpool like last year.
Anfield road end capacity 60001 thousand
Yes your grandfather will have followed the Dark Side when they were an obscure anonymous backwood club before Wankly showed up.
It was my grandfather then it was my dad then I started supporting Liverpool
8 unlikes? Have the closet Liverpool fans in Manchester been denying love for the club they secretly support again?? 🤣🤣
0:45 the two men just casually standing on the construction.
R2 DAN 2 ....obviously no Health & Safety back then!!😂
It's a long time since I visited Anfield. It had an air of a cathedral about it and was very like a big perfectly iced cake. A wonderful ground, club and city. ❤🎉
I can't believe just how small the original Kop was,as a kid i thought it was huge on tele, actually Anfield was quiet a small stadium in the heydays of the huge attendances.
Wasn't massively tall but was very deep and bigger in the corners than the current one.
Massive numbers of fans would pack in.
It was quite an experience for me as a little kid!
I'm a Liverpool fan from Malaysia I really want to go to anfield Liverpool Stadium, Hopefully one day I will be able to come there Insya Allah Aamin, You'll Never Walk Alone.
Yes you all are from somewhere or other. Very few from the actual city! The Tourist Club we call them, amongst many other names!
Nicely done!😀
so beautiful, had a tear in my eye YNWA
Remember the old kop. Best atmosphere ever YNWA
Great video
2:27 it's not the pic in 1997 as the Standard Chartard logo was there already
Wow!! U learn stuff everyday!!! LFC al thee way!!!
Did you know there was 100 steps from the bottom of the kop to the top
michael johnson wow no I never, can go to my grave happily now thanks Michael , not
I know for a fact there were not,cannot remember how many i counted them as a kid with a friend and recall it was well short of this total,if memory serves me 70 odd?
St domingo FC - Formed on breckfield road north in Everton
The stands were enormous back then.
A beautiful stadium referred to an historical and fantastic football team.
God please give my father a good health just like you give him today so that one day I can bring him here.
Liverpool ❤️
Great video.
Thank the universe that its still there, we havent sold out and moved to a modern soulless generic bowl. Pack in as many people as you want you'll never match the atmosphere and wall of sound that an old stadium produces
"Thank the universe that its still there"? Did you not watch the video? Brings to mind Trigger's broom.
The number 8 shirt would have been perfect for Bellingham, but I am sure Jurgen will find someone else capable of occupying it.
Who else spotted a spelling error on spion cop
David Stevens no no, it’s the Kop... how do YOU not know that, you’re a Liverpool fan
@@stefanetienney2666 I know I was just saying
I did
I like very much in 1965
We love u Liverpool we do
LEGAND YNWA 😘❤️❤️❤️
Anfield was originally Evertons ground
Rent dodgers

1:54 1973 jurgen klopp were just 5 years old😂
Why have you removed the Piano Version of YNWA and put that Rock Music in????
Copyright but it was actually a cover version so don't know why but there you go..
Think that cop was the Largest in the uk right at some point terrace wise
Bulldozed the old Kop, so it's not the real Kop anymore
Cool music , who is it ?
Good stadium
Anfield 👏👍🏻
You need a bolt on to this video in a month or two...
What is the music please
Nice but you spelt THE SPION KOP wrong
#youwillneverwalkalone
I have no recollection of the kop being bulldozed...Liverpool didn't play a season with no kop end did they?
They had something like 4,000 seats ready in the new kop stand for the new season after it was demolished. That resulted in around 10,000 regular's no being able to go, average gate season before it was demolished was 44,000.
I wonder if the US even knew what soccer was in 1900.
Liverpool weren’t really up to much prior the 1960s and a history of their ground displays that. The success of the 1970s and 1980s really galvanized the club. No disrespect intended to Liverpool which is now undoubtedly a massive club on a global scale, but Man Utd and Arsenal were always huge clubs in comparison as were Celtic and Rangers. Everton were certainly as big a club as Liverpool prior to the late Shankley-era.
They had 7 league titles up to 1966, you need to do your homework.
True. Pre war and even in the 1950s, it wasn't Liverpool that footy fans all flocked to see at their own grounds, it was clubs like Stoke, Burnley, Wolves, and PNE. These clubs were the big clubs up to and through the 1930s.....then Arsenal, and later Manchester United starting to appear. Liverpool only really became big club in the late 60's.
Dark Lord I’ve done my homework. I’m not saying Liverpool weren’t a big club, but that they were not a huge club then. Everton were bigger than Liverpool until Shankley, and had won more trophies to boot. Jeepers, Liverpool didn’t win their first FA cup - in an era throughout when the FA cup was seen as important, if not more important than the league - until 1965! They were certainly not in the realm of a Man Utd or the giants of European football. By the way, I support none of the clubs mentioned.
@@vincentmcnabb939 Everton had won one more trophy up to this point than Liverpool, the FA cup, that makes them bigger ?
Man United had the same number of titles as Liverpool up to this point, Man united where giants of Europe with one European cup ?
I don't have to remind you that Liverpool would have won the European cup 3 years before United did if it wasn't for a corrupt official, proven years later .
@UCD0SHQK7_4DdIWuTuAtSW_g I'm not having a dig at Liverpool, I'm just stating what was a fact. These clubs were all considered bigger than Liverpool right up until the 1960's. It may not be what you want to hear but it was the case - according to my late grandfather.
Also you have to take into account that attendances weren't recorded or listed in the early days. The turnstile wasn't around at first and didn't appear until about 1930. Before this fans were just let in though gates.....no checks, and no one counting the number of people at the grounds. So you have to take these 'official' attendance figures with a pinch of salt. The real number would have been quite alot higher.
Besides, it's a fairly modern view to be 'obsessed' with attendance figures in judging how big or small a club is. In the past people didn't think of this, they just wanted to see famous faces and well known names. And these names happened to be playing for Stoke, Wolves, or PNE.
The fact that PNE for example were the first English football club to win the domestic double (League and FA cup), AND also the first club to win the title in consecutive seasons, means that they a huge club at the time they achieved this, and it was enough to guarantee them 'big club status' well into the 20th century - right up to the 60's. What they achieved all the way back in the 1880's can't be taken away from them.
They'll always be proud to be the first English club to achieve what they did. Even if they've not won the top flight since 1890. Attendances are arbitrary, and as I said the 'actual' attendances were probably alot higher than was recorded.
What if Everton FC never skipped their rent payment at Anfield?

Was anfield Everton ground
Yes.
They rented it so never owned it.
Yes rented, until the crooked landlord tried to put the rent up 500%. Not before winning our first title at Mordor! You wallpushers can’t even claim that!
Everton’s stadium first
They rented it.

Your keeper had to!
I believe that liverpool deserved a bigger stadium
My grandad was in charge of reuniting Liverpool fans with their lost giros.
Was relatively small until the 90s really.
It would seem incredible for a modern Liverpool fan to believe today but, before 1970, the balance of power, off the field was very much towards Everton. Anfield was very poorly developed prior to the 1960s and even then, not a lot was done. Goodison, by contrast, was widely regarded in 1966 as the most impressive stadium in the land. The ethos of the two clubs off the field also reflected this. Up to the mid-60s, Everton was viewed as Footballing aristocrats and indeed often accused of not winning the trophies their status merited. Liverpool was the underdog team who often punched above their weight. Indeed it could be argued that this shaped Bill Shankley and the 60s Kop. This had an effect on the atmosphere in the two stadiums {remember this is an era where many fans would watch both teams} Everton held a sense of reverence while Anfield was more relaxed. Shankley encouraged the atmosphere and smashed the sense of knowing their place so to speak and in 1973, for the first time in history, Liverpool returned a higher average attendance than Everton, a role which has never switched back. Ironically, having overthrown Everton, he private expressed an interest in becoming Everton manager in 1975. In truth, Everton took the guts of thirty years to properly react to the power shift and they've left themselves a monumental task to even remotely start to try and regain a foothold. However, it should always be a salutary lesson for all Liverpool fans to never take their position for granted. The seeds of any Everton revival may rest in any future Liverpool complacency.
The record crowd at anfield is almost 62 thousand for a match against wolves in the FA cup in 1952. Until the early 80's the kop held 27 thousand. So we are still catching up really. YNWA
@@paulquinn8709 I'd say there was probably an era of off the field parity between 1973-2000, while Liverpool was much more successful on the field. Throughout the 20th Century, neither side had any great strength over the other in terms of support or identity in the city. However, certainly, in the last 20 years, the swing has {I think I read somehwere} gone as high as 7 to 1 Liverpool to Everton ratio and identity of Everton in the city has never been more difficult to find. No doubt a new stadium for the blue {1/8th, half now seems optimistic} will do much to help regenerate the blue identity of Merseyside. I would fear for Everton's long term capability to continue in the city if their new stadium and/or their immediate Premier League status were to be lost.
Do this for PSG..oh wait they dont have a history
Kalah ama barca
All these massive stands are useless, you can't see a thing, and what's the point of shouting anything, no one can he you scream in space.
Disgusting.
Great video
