LIVERPOOL FC chief executive Rick Parry has hit back at co-owner Tom Hicks’s demand he should resign.

Parry said: “It’s for the board to ask me to resign – and they haven’t. It is clear that this is a matter for the board. I’m accoun- table to the board and this is not something the board has discussed with me.

“There’s a Liverpool way which I will stick to, and clearly there’s a different way.

“I think I have a responsibility, indeed a duty, at the moment to try to keep things on an even keel when there’s a degree of turmoil off the pitch. I just want to do my best for the club. The club will survive, we’ve got a Champions League semi-final coming up, there are a lot of important things to be done.”

“There needs to be a resolution between the owners.”
