Liverpool Co-Owner George Gillet: It's Rafa Benitez's Fault
TheReds' owners have not received a particuarly warm welcome in the cityof Liverpool this week, but one of them has implied that the club'sposition is perhaps someone else's fault...
Liverpool's American co-owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks haveendured a torrid time in the city of Liverpool this week as they havebeen on Merseyside for discussions concerning the future of thefootball club.
A protest at Anfield had involved a banner that read 'Thanks But NoYanks' during the weekend's game with Chelsea. Earlier in the day,members of supporters' pressure group 'The Spirit of Shankly' (SOS) hadconverged on the hotel where the Americans were staying and mounted anoisy protest.
Mr Gillett agreed to speak to SOS spokesman Jay McKenna, after anumber of fans had breached security to confront, peacefully, theColorado-born businessman.
McKenna informed The Liverpool Echo of the contents of the'interview', which contained an interesting insinuation that RafaBenitez was responsible for Liverpool losing their lead in the titlerace, his ant-Ferguson/Manchester United rant about 'facts' beingblamed.
"I told him all the fans who were outside and thousands more wereangry and upset at how he and Tom Hicks were running the club," the Echo reports McKenna as saying.
"He looked shocked and asked me why. I told him he knew why, because he met Spirit Of Shankly before the Manchester United game.
"I said ‘fans see it as you have made three promises and broken them’. So he asked me what they were."
McKenna reportedly then pointed out to Gillett that fans did notlike the fact that the club were now massively in debt due to theAmericans' purchase of the club.
"He claimed this was at the ‘request of the banks’ and they were ina ‘sound financial position’ with ‘revenue per pound or dollar in ratioto the debt’ better than at any other football club," McKenna said,before revealing the extent of Gillett's and Hicks's attempts to bringJurgen Klinsmann to Anfield.
"The second one was backing the manager and then not doing so. Isaid they said they would back the manager, so why had they approachedJurgen Klinsmann about the position of manager?" he continued.
"He then went on to claim they had met with the manager, who toldthem he was to have discussions with ‘three other teams’ about joiningthem and they approached Klinsmann to have him in place to work as a‘consultant at the club’ if Benitez left them.
"I asked why they had approached Klinsmann, because his pedigree was not one that immediately made fans sit up and take note.
"He claimed Klinsmann had a brilliant track record, and he hadexcellent marketing talent, having close links with those at Adidas,Nike and Reebok and the benefits of him being at Liverpool.
"I asked who the three clubs were, but he refused to answer."
McKenna also enquired about the progress of the new stadium, anotherpromise on which SOS feel the Americans have failed to deliver. McKennawas assured that £100 million had been spent of Hicks' and Gillett'sown money, and work was ongoing with architects, designers and otherprofessionals to keep the stadium plans on track.
"I asked if the club’s accounts would show and support this whenthey are released, and he said yes. Gillett then claimed all transferfees to date had been met by himself and Tom," McKenna explained.
"He said when they bought the club, they were told about the‘Liverpool Way’. I asked if he felt they had been true custodians asthey promised. Gillett told me he ‘had tried, but it had beendifficult’ and they had ‘done what they could’.
"I asked why he could not speak for Hicks because he was hispartner. He said that ‘husband and wife can say different things butone does not get the blame’.
"I explained they were both responsible, and he was not happy atbeing blamed. I asked why he was in partnership with Hicks. He saidHicks and himself had worked together well for six years in otherbusinesses such as food, but this is different because the media areinvolved.
McKenna also quizzed Gillett about whether the club was still forsale, and whether there had been any interest from potential buyers.
Gillett reportedly replied: "Yes, there have been expressions ofinterest and some negotiation." This repsonse triggered furtherquestions from a determined McKenna
"I asked who with, and he told me he could not tell me that. I askedwould he sell, and he admitted he was ‘open to it’, but he could notspeak for Hicks."
But McKenna reserved perhaps the most surprising insight until last,when he revealed that Gillett had implied that he held Rafa Benitezreponsible for the Reds' conceding of their league lead to ManchesterUnited.
"I then went to walk away," added McKenna, "and he came after mesaying, ‘A few weeks ago, we were in first position, then a certainindividual from the club attacked another individual from another club,and, since then, we have lost form and slid down the league.’
"I was stunned, and asked if he was blaming Benitez as a result, and in saying that, was he not backing the manager?
"Rather than confirm or deny as I expected, he replied ‘that’s your implication’."
If those words are true, as McKenna claims, then there does not seem much unity of purpose behind the scenes at Anfield. |
