A construction worker working on the latest upgrades to Liverpool's Anfield stadium has claimed he's been sacked for posting videos inside the ground.
With the season over for clubs for a little while it's time for everyone to get their upgrades ahead of the next campaign, and Liverpool are no exception.
Whilst most of the reconstruction has to be done inside Jurgen Klopp's midfield there's also plenty of it taking place at the stadium too.
The Reds are continuing their development of the Anfield Road stand and increasing capacity inside the ground to 61,000 with work that began two years ago.

One of the workers on the site, Kev Moore, took to social media to claim that he'd been sacked for a video inside the ground that he didn't even post.
In a video after the sacking Moore appeared to call out all the things that were wrong with the site as he left the ground, as you can see below.
"Sacked by Liverpool for a video I didn't post," he claimed on social media, adding in the replies, "I'm sorry, but I was just chilling on my break admiring the new view .... what's the big secret.
When people gave their sympathy to Moore he revealed he already had a new job lined up, replying: "Wouldn't worry about it mate few days off new start next week better doe."
In the original post, the worker showed off the view from the upper tier saying: "Look at the view of the pitch. You're in the f****** nosebleeds here. Like Newcastle away."
In his follow up on being sacked he took in one more look around the ground and spoke to some colleagues on the way out, telling one to stay out of his video or he might get sacked.
Moore also pointed at some loose cables and 'trip hazards' and also appeared to question a 'ton of bricks' that fell from some scaffolding.
The work on Anfield is expected to go on throughout the summer and will affect the fixture list that comes out on Thursday morning.
The club have been in contact with the Premier League to request an away fixture to open their season whilst the building work continues.
A leaked look at the opening round of fixtures suggested that they would get their wish at newly promoted side Luton Town.
However the Hatters are also said to have requested their start to a first ever season in the Premier League to be away from home, suggesting the leak was fake.
SPORTbible have contacted Liverpool for comment.
