  1. Look in my eyes, not around the eyes, but in the eyes....Nah, wrong McKenna mate...... From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search John McKenna (1855 – March 1936) was an Irish self-made businessman and former rugby player, who was the first manager of Liverpool. He was a friend of John Houlding and remained with him after Everton left Anfield for Goodison Park. McKenna used his connections to fish for players in Glasgow, including Duncan McLean, James McBride, Malcolm McVean, Hugh McQueen, Matt McQueen, John McCartney, Bill McOwen and Joe McQue. It was McKenna, acting as the club's secretary, who telegraphed the Football League asking for Liverpool to be admitted to it. He did not disclose his plan to anyone, but it worked - Liverpool were invited into the Football League.

  13. Ref Hicks: He has a "schizoid personality disorder" - definition is as follows. This disorder is characterized by a persistent withdrawal from social relationships (getting to know the fans), and lack of emotional responsiveness in most situations. It is sometimes referred to as a "pleasure deficiency" because of the seeming inability of the person affected (Hicks) to experience joyful or pleasurable responses to life situations. Their speech is typically slow and monotonous with a lethargic demeanor. Because their tendency is to turn inward, they can easily become preoccupied with their own thoughts to the exclusion of what is happening in their environment. Attempts to communicate may drift into tangents or confusing associations. They are also prone to being absent minded. Causes: The schizoid personality disorder has its roots in the family of the affected person. These families are typically emotionally reserved, have a high degree of formality, and have a communication style that is aloof and impersonal, (especially to Liverpool fans). Parents usually express inadequate amounts of affection to the child and provide insufficient amounts of emotional stimulus. This lack of stimulus during the first year of (Hicks') life is thought to be largely responsible for the person's disintrest in forming close, meaningful relationships later in life. Hope this explains a little.......

  18. Source from Wikipedia: [edit] Liverpool F.C. takeover bid On 4 December 2006, through his Dubai International Capital (DIC) Investment Group, Sheikh Mohammed engaged in takeover negotiations for Liverpool Football Club in a deal rumored to be worth £479m. The deal was also rumored to include a new 60,000 seater stadium, close to Anfield in nearby Stanley Park. As of January 31, 2007, D.I.C. withdrew their bid when Liverpool requested more time to consider a second bid from American George N. Gillett Jr., owner of the Montreal Canadiens, an NHL franchise, and Tom Hicks, owner of two teams, the NHL's Dallas Stars and the Texas Rangers, a MLB franchise. This bid was later accepted by David Moores. Reasons for Liverpool FC not being able to accept D.I.C's bid were: 1. DIC saw Liverpool primarily as a business without regard to the fans. They were well known for their ruthless streak in business and the board were afraid that they weren't looking for the best interests of the club. 2. Liverpool began considering the bid from Tom Hicks and George Gillett to which DIC responded by pushing Liverpool to make a decision. The board failed to make a decision which in turn prompted DIC to pull their bid. National newspapers were able to get hold of these plans and subsequently printed them. Liverpool's then Chairman, David Moores, decided that the Al Maktoum and D.I.C. bid was unacceptable. I wonder what is going through Moores' mind now?
  19. Great post. Let's hope the two of them have not only been "smoked out", but burned out of house and home.
  20. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
  21. Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
  22. Perhaps G + H can learn something from this course??????? http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,7374-1517327,00.html
