Former Liverpool CEO Peter Moore reveals his Anfield Road wishes

Ex-Reds CEO Peter Moore has revealed he pushed for two key changes during the redevelopment of the Anfield Road Stand, but ultimately lost both battles.

One of those involved relocating away supporters higher up in the stand, rather than keeping them in a more traditional lower-tier position.

I also thought Anfield Road expansion would be a good opportunity to reposition the away fans a little further up, but I lost that battle as well! Hope you are well Ian.
