That matters not one bit to us in England, it's only a PR exercise to try and protect The Rangers and Stars from getting any idea of beginning to protest against him, Hicks is on the back foot.

Yes. And for drinking. For fuck's sake, we go in bars! We should be ashamed.

I received a reply this morning to an email i sent her, which was good of her, but very non comittal to almost all of the points i raised. The apology i requested was almost there though...

I never said they were fantastic owners merely better at soccer than hockey and baseball.

To be fair, she probably doesn't know Liverpool is its own country...

I got a reply too.

I never said y'all hated him for no reason, just simply noted that you hated him and way more than Rangers and Stars fans who have way more reason.

Some Americans think Liverpool is in London, just two blocks away from Wales.

Re: I don't know whether to laugh of cry......
Ive just sent her the following:


Jennifer

How much money is Mr Hicks paying you to spin off such garbage?

Perhaps in America, where the fashion is to Sue by Lawsuit whoever you can, it acceptable to Syphon what you can from Your Sporting Clubs. Here we care more about Our club than just the money.

Thats why i personally spend over £4000 a season following the team i Love. I understand that it's important for the Club to run as a business so it can earn revenue to keep it a float, pay players salary's & too compete. But when it's Greedy Owner(s) Who have a History of failure in other sporting Projects, who syphon what they can from the club for personal greed & who ultimately drag the team down, then i do find myself having a problem.

If Mr Hicks had kept his mouth shut (like the other co owner) then i can assure you that the under achieving team would have more points on the table than at present. Destabilising the club with his outbursts for whatever personal agendas he has does not do him or the team any favours at all.

When the New Owners first took over most of us loyal fans were prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt. Now Mr Hicks has put huge debt onto the club which he & Mr Gillette at first promised they would not & publicly humiliated the Manager, then there is no way back.

We all know what the Owners are about & yes we do not like it one little bit.

Perhaps this is because there is a huge difference to what is acceptable in American Sport & what is not acceptable in OUR sport here in England.

Regards

Re: I don't know whether to laugh of cry......
Do the Rangers or Stars have any kind of fansites/groups like we do? Maybe they should be trying to get some protests on the go at their games too. SOS could contact them and see if they'd be up for doing something.

If they follow our lead Hicks won't be welcome at any of his 'franchises'.
