So can anybody shed light on what these people do for the club?
I'll give me take on this.
Chairman - Basically do nothing but sit around and have the highest level of authority of the club. Most power and it probably explains why our club is in such dire state.
Directors - Sons of Hicks and Gillette, to supposedly be supporters of their fathers and will always sit in the ship with them. Act as assistants and probably have the next highest say after their dads.
Managing Director - Oversees the operations of the club and reports to the directors and chairman. Both the commercial and footballing side. Most talks to other directors and of course, the manager.
Financial officer - Calculates the finances we have? Handles the debt that we have to pay off? Dishes out the transfer funds (non existent :
). Makes sure there's a balance. Reports to managing director on his reports.
Commercial director - oversees the advertising of the club. Makes sure the fanbase is there throughout the world. Stuff like that. Make sure we're up to date and works hand in hand with the managing director to seal commercial and advertising deals.
Manager - Shouts from the touchline? Oversees tactics? The one and only who makes Liverpool tick
Honourary Life Presidents/Vice-Presidents - Honoured by the club as they've probably served the club well. Have a say in things and will be in this position throughout their whole life. Looks more like people who make a living out of doing nothing.
