‘Fixture-list manipulation’ allegation to cost Havant dear
Justin Gregory, Havant & Waterlooville’s defensive king-pin, is set to miss the Anfield clash after the Football Association ruled he should serve his ban due to H&W manipulating the fixture list in an attempt to make him available by re-arranging the Thurrock match for tonight (which was abondoned after two power failures).
“It’s a nightmare, but there’s not much I can do about it. The FA are pretty archaic if you ask me. ” said Gregory.
“I’ve written a few emails to officials to explain the situation, but I don’t remember them going back on a decision too many times, so I guess I just have to live with it.”
“I did an interview saying I was happy there was a league game taking place so my suspension would be cleared, but that was taken out of context.”
“The FA officials obviously saw that and think the game has been specifically arranged.” he added.
“I’m absolutely gutted, but you also have to keep things in perspective.”
“Nobody died and it gives someone else the chance to play at Anfield.”

I shall not begin with my emotional affiliations with LFC throughout my lifetime. We all are.
A financial boycott of products just for the time being may not be the best solution but can be a small measure of a start. In the long run it would still hurt LFC with Hick/Gillett only out for financial gains. I can also forsee them offloading any player whom they deem fit to reap profits. That can include Gerrard and Torres.
I would like to propose that, as Hicks seemingly is only a businessman and never a fan of anyone, and that he probably didn’t know that in the EPL the football is round, and that his primary interests are elsewhere, he’d only realise the gravity of the situation here at LFC if the worst happens right in the heart of his interests. That refers to Texas Rangers and the Dallas Stars. This boycott should extend all the way across the atlantic to minimise the effect on LFC itself as a club. I do not know much about these two teams, but a simple search does provide some clues, and their rivals are pivotal in bringing the message across as they would love to undermine their bitter rivals in any way possible. I can declare to be anti-Texas Rangers and anti-Dallas Stars, and any rival team is a friendly figure. Whatever happens on the ground at Liverpool doesn’t affect him much while sitting in the Sates as much as it does affect me as far as here in Singapore, and although the media is far stretching, we need to bring his undoings straight into his backyard; his homeland. He deserves to be HIT where it hurts.
The banks have been hesitant with the loans as they need assurances with their assets, but they also do know that LFC is not a small club. They know there would be ready buyers should the club make losses. (touchwood) And if Hicks is to use his assets back home as collateral, then these assets must be placed under a doubtful shadow. For that to happen, there must be negative sentiments in place for all his other assets and ventures. Its a totally different Ball-Game, and its a long shot, but collectively and in a short period, the voices of the fans of LiverpoolFC would be heard, and that would make the difference.
