As if the American image abroad isn't damaged enough...
we now have Hicks Jr. insulting a Liverpool fan....


in an e-mail he tells the fan "Blow me, fuckface.."

Lovely.

1. Aw c'mon
We have enough English dingbats in the football league without needing to bash other countries dingbats for this sort of thing.

2. I think he snapped
He has been getting a torrent of emails from Spirit of Shankly. I want Hicks and Gillette as far away from LFC as possible (Pluto is too close) To be fair the Hicks jnr (who is a total pratt make no mistake about that) most likely had a few drinks and told some anon emailer to..... HG are as arrogant as they come- They saw TV $ signs and have ruined a storied football club with a rich history.

4. United are in deep deep deep trouble
they are at least 505 mil in club debt, 202 mil glazier debt- they won everything there is to win and still lost 44 mil GBP until they sold the greasy one. Debt payments are 70 mil a year- In 2013 at the current interest rate united have the interest payments alone will be 550 mil GBP. With new debt rules coming in oi! Once slur alex drunkardson goes, united become just another club. Where will the glory hunting prawn sandwich eating united fans be then? Onto the next winning club most likely.

5. Man City?
They've got tons of money pouring in, and now they have a manager who is capable of handling big egos... wait, what am I thinking, Utd's fans don't actually live in Manchester. :P

6. Exactly
Like Chelsea, they don't have fans outside of Chelsea. They are a small club with a Russian mobster owner with very deep pockets. It is easy to understand why they don't have a big following with the likes of JT (****** knacker) Frank (tinker) Ballox, A-Cole they are a bunch of really despicable characters. Your son makes 150,000 GBP a week and mom is getting nicked for shop lifting in the Bentley and dad for cocaine sales in a club. Like my mate says once a tinker always a tinker.
