The redevelopment of Anfield's Main Stand has been postponed due to bad weather conditions.

A significant milestone in the extension of Liverpool's home ground was scheduled to get underway on Thursday morning, but changing wind conditions have led to the roof truss fitting being delayed.

The 650-tonne structure will be hoisted into place in an operation that takes around eight hours to complete.

Unfortunately, due to changing wind conditions, Anfield's new Main Stand roof truss lift has been postponed. Updates to follow.
