Leaving the M62 and heading towards the stadium, you pass a number of familiar eateries such as McDonalds, KFC, OK Dinner and a pizeria. Around Anfield is a number of burger vans. In the away end, the catering is of a good standard.
The Arkles is only staggering distance from the away end. Or the other side of Stanley Park, near Everton's ground, try The Spellow, Wilmslow and Stanley Park.
Along the pitch is the two-tiered, Centenary Stand and opposite the older, single-tiered Main Stand which has a number of pillars. Behind the goal is the legendary Kop Stand, which is massive!
Eagles fans will be seated behind the other end in the right half of the Anfield Road end in the upper and lower tiers with an allocation of 2,000.
The view – apart from the very back where it's a bit restricted – is good, along with the food and drink options.
"You'll Never Walk Alone..." and "Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool"
To the tune of You'll Never Walk Alone:
"Sign on, sign on,
With a pen in your hands,
Cos you'll never get a job,
You'll never get a job,
sign on sign on..."
"In your Liverpool slums
"You look in a dustbin for something to eat
"You find a dead rat and you think it's a treat
"In your Liverpool slums
"In your Liverpool slums
"Your mum's on the game and your dad's in the nick
"You can't get a job 'cause your too fucking thick
"In your Liverpool slums
"In your Liverpool slums
"You wear a shell suit and have got curly hair
"All of your kids are in council care
In your Liverpool slums
"In your Liverpool slums
"There's piss on the pavement and shit on the path
"You finger your grandma and think it's a laugh
"In your Liverpool slums."
Everton and Manchester United.
