Wow. Words can't describe.
HAHA...
Why oh why...
They should blame it on some half Witt monkey boy who replies to emails for them.. say that he has now been fired after his improper and unprofessional conduct. Apologise for the mistake and state that answering millions of emails and undertaking the massive amount of work required to ensure the best interests of the club would be impossible so they hire others to reply to emails on behalf of the organisation.

I've met him, several times.
He's a spolit, loud-mouth, drunken, arrogant dickhead. LOVES being the big man in the bar, getting louder with each passing drink...
Funny thing is, the most recent time we watch a game in the same place, we ended up sitting quite close together, and, early on in the game, he started simply repeating anything I yelled out... If I yelled "Knock it wide!" or "C'mon Stevie!" or "Watch the back post!", within seconds, he'd be yelling exactly what I'd just said.
Wanker.

Sounds like Goerge Bush´s son George Bush.....

In fairness, I'd be sick of bellends emailing me about their 'concerns' day and night as well.
As Fark said however, they should have some corporate monkey replying for them.

I agree with Keni.
Tom Junior is clearly not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but at least he gave an honest reply

I miss Moores and the old Liverpool.
We achieved as much, and it was done with dignity.

Probably not, but it doesn't change what I said.
We were fed lies from day 1, and I had more faith in Moores to get it right.

Everyone moaned about Moores at the time and were calling for him to sell up.
Did he have any other options other than the Yanks or someone else under a similar kind of arrangement?
If not what else could he have done?
[/quote]
No-one can really say with any degree of certainty - at least on here - what offers they had or didn't over the years.
What I do know is that they spent millions on searching for investment for years, we ended up in a position where the cost of a stadium equated to about half of the new owners capital and had a bit of a dodgy track record in general. Was that really good enough? Do you get to the point after all that effort where you just think "I'll sell it to anyone that fronts the cash"?
I know it's often said that no-one complained at the time and I guess they didn't really. Most Liverpool fans just chose to be optimistic and hope for the best and at the end of the day, why not? We're football fans, not accountants and being a football fan is largely rooted in having hope. That said, I do remember a lot of people googling and questioning the amount of money they had behind them and digging up some old not-so-flattering articles. Did people largely put those concerns to one side and choose to be optimistic? Sure. But as football fans, we have the right to do that. The guys in power don't.

He has resigned according to SSN.

Resigned from what?
I have no clue what his job was supposed to be anyway.
Apart from sending stupid e-mails and copying Whaddapie's football chat in pubs.

Well they shouldn't be in such a role then. Fans who pay money to see the team, and even those who just support the club, reserve the right to voice concerns. When the club relies heavily on revenue generated by the fans, the blood of the club, it should expect some input from them. And they should at least have the decency to treat such enquiries with a dignified response.
There's no justification for the reply whatsoever.

Tom Hicks Jr resigns as Liverpool director
Director moves on after weekend controversy...
By Zack Wilson
Liverpool have today announced that Tom Hicks Jr has left his position as a director of both the football club and its parent company.
A statement on the club's official website reads:
"Liverpool Football Club today announce that Thomas Hicks Jr has resigned as a director of both the club and its parent company Kop Holdings.
"Three new directors have been elected to the boards of both companies.
"These are Philip Nash, LFC Chief Financial Officer; Ian Ayre, LFC Commercial Director; and Casey Coffman, Executive Vice President of Hicks Holdings."
The news follows stories that emerged at the weekend regarding an angry and allegedly abusive email sent to a supporter by Hicks Jr, for which he later apologised.
Pressure had mounted for Hicks Jr to resign after he responded to an email from concerned fan Stephen Horner by reportedly writing: "Blow me, ****face. Go to hell. I’m sick of you."
The Spirit of Shankly supporters' group, an organisation committed to ridding the Anfield club of its American owners, issued a statement over the weekend calling for Hicks Jr to resign, as well as expressing wider concerns about the state of the club.
