The Interview

I ain't debt free. Are you ?

I'm not debt free...but I haven't piled on my debt to someone else either. All well and good taking risks with other people's assets and money

What amazes me is that you believe Hicks would keep his word, in keeping Rafa, that you dont suspect this is infact designed to make him popular with fans.

We have all seen how he dealt with Rafa, at a time when him & GG were still buddies, don't expect him to be suddenly different if he had TOTAL control.

Rafa is just a tool that Hicks is using to try & get control. IMO.

I agree but I won't jump the gun ... yet.

Talking about Parry being crap...Rafa hasn't really cut it in the league since he's been here either!!!!

He's made strides forward each season he's been here, does that still mean he 'didn't cut it' ?

And for the record, his CL stats bears no equal since he's been here. That's why he's so popular.

Talking about Parry being crap...Rafa hasn't really cut it in the league since he's been here either!!!!

You wont hear Hicks say that though, not till he has control. Then it will be back to how he handled Rafa last time, by ridiculing him in the media. Seems to be a Hicks trait that.

Am I wrong in thinking that he owns 50% of the club !?

[Reece]

Yes. No loans or anything My house and care is paid for and so on.

I knew it!

I'm surprised it took this long for some to start bashing Rafa.

[Sarb]

Not bashing Rafa. Stating facts mate.

ah but that's because you have not had the chance to. You would if you could.

[Guest]

Not bashing Rafa. Stating facts mate.

So does he own 50% of the club or not !?

that's pure conjecture mate! as things stand, they both said they've had (communication) problems in the past but have put them behind.
take it or leave it. but don't pretend you know!

[AFII]

You're very fortunate.

I know but it all comes down to hard work and that in return means that I win more money on my bets. Four, five hours a day looking at stats, injury reports, reading paper after paper, looking at I don't know how many games and league tables isn't that fun.

Pretend i know what. That Hicks wont criticise Rafa at present even if he had no faith at all in him. I know he wouldn't, he may if he gets control.

[Sarb]

So does he own 50% of the club or not !?

Yeah he does, didn't you know?

[Guest]

Yeah he does, didn't you know?

So how does it mean that he's putting debts on 'someone else's assets' ?

[fred_plasticine]

Pretend i know what.

pretend to know that "Then it will be back to how he handled Rafa last time, by ridiculing him in the media".
