I just hope DIC get this sorted out soon, hopefully before the transfer window closes

Even if DIC took over tomorrow I don't think we would buy anyone. I think they will wait till the summer, decide if Rafa will stay on, and only then give us out transfer funds.

I still think if we don't do well that even under DIC we will have a new manager.

I dont why you think that S@int.

They may come in, right this season off and give him the chance to start a fresh slate next season.

The sight of Liverpool playing in a totally empty Anfield will echo around the world. Hicks and Gillette will get the message.

If we want to make ourselves look like complete planks, destroy our credibility as supporters, inflame an already shambolic series of events mid-way through our season, potentially having serious consequences to the final outcome of our season - boycott the Villa match.

As it happens, I'll bet you my life that it won't happen, and so it shouldn't.

It probably won't happen because too many people (like yourself) are prepared to roll over and eat whatever sh'it is fed to them whilst others are prepared to fight.

How do you equate fans taking radical and assertive action with destroying our credibility as fans ? and as for "potentially serious consequences to the final outcome of our season" you fail to give a "such as" to support your Cassandra like prediction. How will the fans boycotting ONE game" seriously affect our season ? The players aren't daft , they'll realise that such a boycott is not about them.

The only fans that will look like planks are those that continue to keep quiet,sit on their hands and agree to do f'uck all while Hicks and Gillette continue to treat LFC as a mere commodity.

Thats massive. If thats true with Hicks family quote ("sick and tired of the club") then its only a matter of time before they sell. I imagine if they get the re financing deal then they will want to sell for more but they will definatley sell if they want rid of it as the last thing they probabaly want is to be stuck with us.

I agree with you completly woof but the short time in which this could be sorted impossible mate .
For season ticket holders not to bad asking them to miss the game but youve got supporters travelin miles to see the game and maybe this is the only chance theve had to actualy get a ticket .

If there was more time this could be done by asking fans not to buy tickets for a certain game and season ticket holders not to turn up.

I agree with you though this would certainly send a message to them that weve had enough . Wouldnt worry about the team though cause i think thed know why we were doing it.

Well maybe dressing up as Arabs could work. Im sure the cameras will pick up on a few of those.

You're right Nanny, it would take a lot more time to organise .And regretably there are perhaps far too many people that would not be prepared to sacrifice their "day out" in order to help make a massive statement to the current owners. Far easier for them to pretend that there's nothing they can do , just wheel out the "I have to support the team" mantra as an excuse for their selfish apathy.

Maybe they need to meet Rosie Riveter ey woof:D

I think Rafa will still leave the club, if we do get the take over they will still give him a few games to get it right.

I can not see them handing over any money to Rafa for new players till the next window.

listening to that sportsweek on five live the Yanks want to sell and are arguing over how much they are gonna get, if believed this is great news they obviously want out but with a substantial profit but this will more than likely happen after the refinacing has been sorted out so looks like the club will still have the debt when the new owners takeover

Were still poor on the pitch which needs to be addressed now and quickly
