GEORGE GILLETT has revealed that Liverpool's feuding co-owners are trying to patch up their differences. And he has suggested that he and Tom Hicks were now trying to revive a partnership he had previously described as "unworkable" - with a desire to help Rafa Benitez "be more competitive in the chase for the Premiership." But the Reds co-owner pointedly refused to discuss whether he still intended to sell his half of the club. Gillett gave a rare interview to Canadian radio station Fan590 late last night, when he revealed: "It's fair to say that communication between the Hicks and the Gilletts has been substantially improved and I believe that it will be for the benefit of the club." |
After his last appearance on the same station led to a public and apparently irretrievable breakdown of the working relationship with Tom Hicks, this time he said: "Time is a healer and there were things that had happened previously.
"It took a while for both of us to realise that we weren't communicating very well and the huge responsibility we have to the fans to do the right thing for the club.
"I believe that the Hicks family are communicating better with us and we're communicating better with them and I think that will be much better for the club."
