      Emergency On-line petition to save Rafael Benitez

      Emergency On-line petition to save
      Liverpool FC manager Rafael Benitez

      There is now an emergency on-line petition of support for Liverpool Football Club manager Rafael Benitez. This on-line petition has been set up to amass support for Rafael Benitez following reports in various newspapers and websites that his departure or sacking is imminent.
      Who in their right mind would even consider sacking a manager, who in my opinion, is the most tactically astute manager in europe bar none? It is absurd and obscene, and it is imperative that every true Liverpool supporter back Rafael Benitez.
      The new American owners promised when they took over OUR club, to "abide by the traditions, values and heritage of the club". The fact they are reportedly on the verge of dismissing the most revered and tactically astute manager since Bob Paisley in 1983 is nothing short than a disgrace, and proves their words and promises mean nothing, and they must not be allowed to get away with it.
      Here is a man who is already a legend at Anfield following his astonishing feat of leading Liverpool to TWO Champions League finals in his 3 short seasons in charge.
      To treat Rafael Benitez, a man of the utmost integrity in such a manner is disgusting and the repercussions of sacking such a manager would, again, in my opinion, make the owners position, Messrs Tom Hicks & George Gillett untenable.
      Please sign the petition if you support Rafael Benitez and wish for him to remain as Liverpool Football Club's manager, and please forward this Email on to as many fellow Liverpool FC supporters as possible, thank you. (Grahamlfc)

      Definitley! We'll be on top of our game, and hopefully the Reds will be on the pitch! Put this Champions League group behind us and give Rafa a bit of leeway in the negotiations!

      To all those going tomorrow.

      Make sure Rick Parry, who behaving in a very judas-like fashion towards Rafa at the minute, takes note!

      Signed but still can't believe it's come to this...this is a load of crap...how can those Yanks even contemplate getting rid of Rafa?


      Anfield and especially the KOP are known for there fantastic and witty banners. Can someone going to the match on Wednesday do one that refers the Yanks to LFCREDS.COM and tell them to view this topic, in particular. Maybe they might actually start to get an idea of what it is to be a real Liverpool supporter and see how the masses stomachs are churning at the thought of them "sacking" the best Manager to come to our club since Paisley was here.

      It's a crying shame that its come to this!!!!
      Ive just signed and sent the link to eighteen other LFC supporters.
      If Rafa is forced out then lets have another petition, declaring a vote of no confidence to the two americans.
