I think to be honest unless DIC are going to send these yanks of with a considerable windfall we can kiss goodbye to any notion of DIC taking over. Man utd have massive debt against them so it wouldn’t be a total surprise if we ended up that way too. All we can do now is revolt against the fans. I think next time Foster Gillete is over in the UK he should be personally targeted.

That is absolutely fucking outrageous. He is basically using us as a front and a cash mule for his fecking Baseball and Hockey teams.

How the fuck Rick Parry can:-
a). Sleep at night
and
b). Still show his fucking stupid ugly friggin clown face at Anfield
after he basically fisted every single one of us by dealing with this asshole and selling us down the river I'll never know.

 

These are DARK, DARK days to be a Liverpool fan.

Unbelieveable my hatred for this man grows by the day.

When Tom Hicks started “losing” money because of his bad decisions, Tom Hicks tried his best to cut his monetary losses at the expense of the Texas Rangers. He tries to trade A-Rod but finds no immediate success. He settles our fan outrage about attempting to give away our best player and league MVP by telling us “Obviously, absolutely there are no trade talks and this trade has been put to bed. We are in a go-forward position with Alex. He is here for seven years and we will go forward.”

This, of course, would be a blatant LIE to the fans as 2 weeks later A-Rod is dumped to New York… this of course will allow the Texas Rangers “Financial flexibility”

So there is hope he will sell cause he is a lying .

“Hicks could have purchased Dallas’ MLS franchise but decided not to. ‘In hindsight, I probably made the wrong decision,’ he said. “. That’ll make ya feel better Liverpool fans, your new owner is now thinking he’d rather have purchased a running punchline in Dallas than your franchise.

Liverpool faithful: I invite you to “The Tom Hicks Era”

WE ARE At WAR WITH HICKS

Let's be under no illusions. It looks like Hicks thinks he can ride thru the storm. With the reaction of some softies within our ranks he might just manage that - i call to our fans to become Ultras in the real sense and get rid of him any which way that it takes

Fears that Dubai rescuers may be scared off as Liverpool tip towards crisis pointOliver Kay
The turmoil surrounding Liverpool continued yesterday amid growing fears that the proposed “rescue plan” from Dubai International Capital (DIC) will be abandoned if Tom Hicks, the unpopular co-owner, proceeds today with a £350 million refinancing package that will plunge the club deep into debt.

Despite the grave misgivings of George Gillett Jr, his co-owner, and of the Liverpool board, Hicks intends to press ahead with a refinancing plan that has been agreed in principle with their bankers, the Royal Bank of Scotland and Wachovia. That plan, to transfer the duo’s existing £300 million debt to the club, will leave Liverpool facing annual interest payments in the region of £30 million, but the greater concern in the immediate term is that it may drive away DIC, the private-equity investment arm of the Dubai Government, which is regarded by many at Anfield as the potential “saviour” of the club.

There was optimism at Liverpool last week that Gillett, who is regarded as the more benign of the two owners, may be persuaded to veto the refinancing plan or that he may join forces with DIC in a bid to buy out his business partner. The expectation now, however, is that Gillett will reluctantly put his name to the refinancing package, which is regarded by the Americans as a means of stabilising their troubled regime at Anfield, at least in the short term, allowing them to proceed with plans to construct a new £300 million stadium on Stanley Park.

There is little doubt that Hicks and Gillett, faced with spiralling costs and hostility from the club’s supporters, are losing their appetite for the challenge they took on at Liverpool only 11 months ago, but they will not be forced into a quick sale.

Although they have held informal negotiations with DIC through a third party, they have no intention of selling unless they make a profit on their initial £234 million investment. They have already informed their bank that a proposed £300 million offer from DIC will be rejected out of hand.

The uncertainty at the club – not least over the future of Rafael BenÍtez, whose long-term position as manager appears untenable under the present regime after his much-publicised fall-out with Hicks – made for an unusually hostile atmosphere as Liverpool prepared to take on Aston Villa in the Barclays Premier League last night. After recent events, many supporters headed to Anfield preparing to direct their anger at the owners.

The “Reclaim the Kop” campaign has been influential in orchestrating the protests against the owners. In a prematch statement, it said: “These two . . . are not fit to be associated with our club. The current situation is unworkable. Rafael BenÍtez, with his ingrained sense of honour, dignity and morality, has been publicly humiliated by Hicks and Gillett. Rafa would have walked away by now but for one small thing the Americans will never ‘get’: he loves it here.”

Regardless of his wish to stay, BenÍtez appears certain to leave at the end of the season if Hicks and Gillett remain in situ. The Spaniard’s position was severely unstable even before Hicks admitted last week that he had held talks with Jürgen Klinsmann, the former Germany coach.

Looks like Hicks is hated as much over there as he is here.

Posted a polite post last Saturday on a Texas Rangers forum to see what they think of him over there:-
