Rick Parry has revealed intensive work is taking place behind the scenes with George Gillett and Tom Hicks to help ensure a bright new era at Anfield.

The Reds' chief executive recently spent time in Dallas with the club's new owners and returned full of excitement about the plans taking shape for the future of the club.

'There was a lot of brainstorming and good ideas to come out of that,' said Parry.

'There's no intention of copying everything they do in America because it's different. The nature of the sport is different, the nature of people who attend events is different and the culture is different.

'But, undoubtedly, there are things they do phenomenally well which we can learn from. The quality of arenas in the states is by and large truly inspiring.'
