A football-loving FrontBurnervian passes along a link to a great WSJ story about how Liverpool fans are making life even more difficult for Tom Hicks. A sample:
On Tuesday afternoon, Mr. Hicks learned firsthand what it’s like to be the prey in a digital hunt.
Around 3:40 p.m., as Mr. Hicks sat on a sidewalk bench in midtown Manhattan, he was spotted by Liverpool native Paul Wilson. It occurred to Mr. Wilson, a 35-year-old financial consultant, that the offices of Deutsche Bank AG and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. were on the same street. He guessed that Mr. Hicks and his son, Tom Hicks Jr., might be visiting the banks to plead for funds.
So Mr. Wilson whipped out his BlackBerry, snapped some photos, and zapped the images to his wife, Erin McCloskey. Then he trailed Mr. Hicks walking into the lobby of the building that houses Deutsche.
And then guess what happened. It almost makes me feel sorry for the guy.
