Thousands of Liverpool fans gathered in protest against club owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett before the blockbuster game against Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday.
The army of supporters gathered at the Liverpool Supporters Club on Lower Breck Road and marched to the Albert pub outside the Kop in order to urge Hicks and Gillett to sell the club, as they attributed to the club's nosedive on and off the pitch to the American co-owners.
The Merseyside club has accumulated a huge amount of debt, and four consecutive losses on the pitch has translated to the Reds' worst run in over two decades.
The fans chanted: "What do we want? Yanks out. When do we want it? Now."
Rafael Benitez's charges are currently playing catch-up in the Premier League as well as in the group stage on the Champions League, as they recently succumbed to a 2-1 defeat to Olympique Lyonnais at Anfield.
