"Blow me, ****face. Go to hell. I'm sick of you."No, that's not me chastising my readers. That's a portion of an e-mail from former Liverpool FC director Tom Hicks Jr. to a concerned fan.
Hicks Jr. was forced to resign to today by the club after comments made to Liverpool supporter Stephen Horner were made public. Horner wrote to Hicks Jr. to address the lack of transfer funds available to manager Rafael Benitez.
The former director apologized publicly for his comments, but it was a case of too little too late.
Hicks Jr.'s behavior just reeks of the frustration currently being felt at Anfield. Liverpool sit seventh in the English Premier League, well out of title contention and on the brink of missing the Champions League. It's been a rough year for the banged-up Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard, manager Rafa Benitez and the entire Liverpool fanbase.
Stories like this only add fuel to the fire of dissatisfaction for the Kopites (aka Liverpool supporters).
