Tom Hicks: How Not To Win Friends And Influence People

The Liverpool mess just keeps escalating from one level of meltdown to the next. From feuding with the fans to feuding with Liverpool's business manager, Tom is now feuding with fellow owner George Gillett:

George Gillett tonight called on his Liverpool co-owner Tom Hicks to stop causing turmoil at the club and insisted he will never sell his shares to his fellow American.

Gillett and Hicks, who each own 50% of Liverpool, have fallen out completely with neither prepared to let the other take over the club.

Hicks has also branded Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry's reign 'disastrous' and in a TV interview today reiterated his demand that he resign.

But Gillett has thrown his weight full square behind Parry. He said in a statement: 'I am saddened at this latest outburst from Tom Hicks. If Tom wanted a serious discussion on the issues to help the club move forward, he should bring his views to the board and not to Sky Sports.

If this meltdown continues, it's going to become a factor for both the Rangers organization and the Stars organization.
