The Kop Faithful guys have prepared draft email text and have asked if we can help them - if you can, please send emails as instructed below.
The email, as you see, challenges the premise of any refinance to the current owners. If you've any questions please ask them here:

Dear All,
KOPFAITHFUL understand that when the Royal Bank of Scotland granted a six-month extension of the £237m loan with Liverpool Football Club in April, it was on the basis that the club’s American owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett provided firm evidence to RBS by July that they genuinely intend to sell the club.
We were therefore alarmed to read recent reports in the British press claiming without contradiction that the debt as of August 31 will be £282.4m - an alarming rise of 45.4m since April, and that the owners have been trying to refinance their massive debts with rival banks.
It is our belief that messrs Hicks and Gillett have no intention of selling Liverpool FC, and we have discovered that they have approached the following banks to seek refinancing: -
• Beach Point Capital Management
• Halcyon Group
• Blackrock
• Davidson Kempner Capital Management LLC
• Stone Tower Capital LLC
• Trimaran Capital Partners
• DE Shaw & Co
• Avenue
• Centrebridge Partners LP
• The Blackstone Group / GSO Capital Partners LP
We believe that the owners have undermined the sale process and have breached the terms of the refinancing agreement.We therefore urge ALL supporters to send an email saying NO TO REFINANCE FOR TOM HICKS AND GEORGE GILLETT to the following:
