Parry asked to resign

[saveferris]

One thing is for certain. This public feud in our board is really embarrassing now, even more than before which i didnt think was possible

[livvy145]

Any idea of the profit.???

The accounts for 2006 on the official site says we had a turnover of £119.5m and a loss of £5.2m. Have last years accounts come out yet?

[El Jefecito]

I think you have a very valid point. Its crossed my mind, and i suspect many others. Just difficult to say in a place like this, some people get upset by radical thoughts!

Oh the irony. Myself and someone else, can't remember who, said the same thing a couple of weeks ago and we were pummelled. To be fair though RafaShankly was open minded enough to listen to the arguments.

Amazing how so many can switch tracks so quickly.

I was one of the 1st to say Hick`s may not be the disaster for LFC the majority thought he would be(4 months ago).I got ****ing slaughtered.

So, how will Hicks pay for the players we need to challenge and overtake ManU and Chelsea?

He would need to splash out on one striker, a right wing back, an attacking playmaker and one or two wingers.

We are talking about something like £100m.

Striker.....£20m+
Right wing back...£11.5m(Rafinha)
Winger(s)....£20m-£40m
Attacking playmaker....£20m+

ManU and Chelsea will continue to move forward and get even better. Only Torres and Masch quality will do if we want to overtake them.

Must have been you I was thinking of. We were definitely in the brow beaten minority that is for sure.

Is there the possibility that Parry was secretly trying to get DIC to buy Liverpool behind Hicks's back and he found out?

as I said earlier Parry, I believe, has been trying to play all sides off against each other in order to save his job. Appearing with Hicks in public on Tuesday? Not the first time he has pulled a stunt like that. Did he not do the same with Kraft and appear with him and co at their stadium?

[AFII]

Well, I think that everyone that even thinks that Hicks is any good for Liverpool FC are idiots but that is my opinion.

He hasn't spent a single pound himself yet so the point about Masch, Torres and Babel is totally wrong. The banks paid for them and we will pay £30m/year in interest.

How the feck will Hicks be able to pay that plus give Rafa enough money to challenge and overtake ManU?

He isn't rich enough to do that.

We'll take one step at a time. I think Rafa has reconciled himself to the fact that width next year will come from the fullbacks so will concentrate on them. Rafainha is a good start.

BTW I think everyone has settled on the fact that a Riquelme / Elano type playmaker is not the way to go. Current wisdom is that playmakers who sit deeper such as Xabi and Pirlo will be better as they have more space than someone sitting in the final 3rd. You've seen how Elano has been marginalized in the 2nd half of the season so a final 3rd playmaker is probably very low on the list of priorities.

Rafainha and someone on the RW is probably all we need to get in the top 3, which is as much as we can hope for in the current climate.

No need to be so nasty..........

Fair enough but as you said, it isn't enough if we want to win #19. It's enough to be able to do what Hicks talked about, that winning isn't the most important thing when it comes down to make a profit.

is my understanding as well, he had not put a penny in of his own money until the refinance deal and even then it wasnt that much of his own cash he stumped up. the only reason the two teamed up was because neither of them could "afford" the club on their own.

Only my opinion based on his business history

[Rashid]

Hicks has probably been briefed by gob****e Ian Ayre that Parry is hated by the fans, Hicks needs one more vote on the board to get even.... so he thought he would use the fans hatred to get rid... it hasn't worked.... the fans hate him even more than they hate crusty... what a knob.

My opinion to mate, but calling people an idiotis uncalled for.

I like to see different views makes things interesting. It's the reason I miss DJS!
