In a summer full of doubt, anger, disappointment and potential heartbreak for reds of all colors, creeds and geographic locations we have the potential of maintaining one constant. That constant is Rafael Benitez. In the fight to maintain our identity and any sort of medium to long term footballing presence; we need to unite together to continue to support our manager. He has maintained a very strong front on our behalf and granted, at times he has taken decisions on and off the field that we may not have personally agreed with. There is no doubting his love, commitment or intentions for the long-term future of this traditional club. Against financial, personal and professional obstacles he has remained a top-class manager despite what the media and it's spoon-fed 'experts' may have you believe. This particular fight transcends simple; on-field issues and it is unfortunate that it has come to this. This particular petition needs to focus on supporting our manager and not our enemies, who we do not need to identify at this point. By signing this petition, you are doing your part in supporting Rafael Benitez and furthermore, pleading with him to stay with Liverpool Football Club. If our leader does decide to part ways, then we can consider this as an opportunity to give our thanks for tolerating what many mortal men would have succumbed to many moons ago.
