    Gillett Speaks...

    http://www.fan590.com/media.jsp?cont...2/]To US Radio

    Starts around 8 minutes in. Nothing we didn't really already know, but interesting to get it from the horses mouth.

    Selected highlights:-

    "We've recieved death threats" (ooh those cheeky scousers)

    "2000 emails a day... fans do not want us to sell even one share to Hicks... we may look into buying him out instead"

    "His (Hicks) public persona is more important to him than the facts"

    "the relationship (between Gillett and Hicks) has been untennable for some time"

    "the things Hicks has said has made it impossible (for them to continue in partnership")

    "Hicks threatened to block DIC"

    "DIC would be responsible owners (and) they have the money"

    "Fans deserve better whatever role we play"

      There was a bit about that, yes towards the end of the interview. Wasn't really paying attention though, I'm afraid.

        The Guardian is now reporting as Breaking News, "Liverpool co-owner George Gillett says partnership with Tom Hicks has become 'unworkable'."

          Great news lets hope they dont qualify for the UEFA Cup as well. Then united can sign Tores for next season.

              DIC should wait to see if Liverpool make it into the champions league. If they don't they'll be on the verge of bankruptcy under the hicks/gillett model so it should knock a good £100 million off the price

                Rumour has it the wolf's at the door for Hicks pretty soon anyway as he has a number of non-Liverpool loans coming up and his net worth is about the same as Bear Stearn's.
