The Everton Board Thread

[Mutzo Nutzo]

Who is John Spellman? Another Bill lackey?

His experience is in hiding investors money in offshore accounts.

Perfect fit for us

I think this is a PR own goal for the club but in practice will not change what is going to happen i.e a new board , a new chairman and more new faces on the board at the behest of MSP.

The important word for these appointments is INTERIM. They are put in place probably to comply with company law and are not regarded as long term appointments.
I have seen the names suggested as people joining the board but I feel the MSP appointees will be people we have never heard of and will represent the interest of MSP even more than those of the club.

Moshiri joining the board means nothing as he had to rubber stamp every important decision anyway.

Bill Kenwright will not be chairman for the first game of the new season imo. He could not attend games since the beginning of this year and opinion of him has not softened... that will be well understood by BK , Moshiri and MSP.

They, imo, put a noose around their own neck by removing the directors and not appointing the interim replacements immediately. They could have then said there would be further permanent changes to the board later in the summer and the position of the chairman was to be reviewed. The promise of news in 48 was plain stupid.

The whole affair has been a PR disaster again.

Proper bellend Jordan - a bill sycophant that has driven this murderous fan angle for all its worth along with a few other in the media.

Surprised they haven't offered Jordan a position on the board, the way he continually slags off our fans would make him an instant favourite with Kenwright and Moshiri.

 

[MrGrumpy]

At time like these I smile and thing What would the Everton board do….

O SH..

I've personally no issue with Kenwright. His position as Chairman is not the reason for us being crap at football.

Be careful what you wish for. In a sport that's rapidly going down the pan, whilst selling its soul to whichever corporation/sovereign wealth fund bids highest, I think it's actually quite nice to have an Evertonian as head of the board. Whether he's a bit of an egotistic bell or not.

I'm prepared for a lot of middle fingers here, but that's ok, I guess they're all from bigger bloos than me.

That bit I’ve highlighted.

That’s what Tory followers told us prior to the last GE.

He tried to move us to Kirkby.
He has pulled numerous stunts to stay in power.
He forced out our greatest ever young talent who went on to become a legend for man United.

I mean I’m not quite sure how we could wish for a worst chairman in all honesty.

 

[Alan Whittle]

The absolute gall on that melt Simon Jordan calling us a “howling mob” when there’s been nothing but peaceful protests.

Moron of the lowest order. Speaking from experience here.

 

[NathDogg]

Sly sports news still reporting the lie that the police told the board and chairman to stay away from Goodison for fear of fans, just like bloody Jordan talking rubbish. The media slur campaign against the fans continues.

 

[jinkyali]

That's bill's thing, theatre...bet he was in his element working up the production of it

Theatre...not winning stuff

And this is what we are now, a shallow joke of a club with devoted fans

Urgh

 

[AdamEFC]

To be fair to him, he has overseen the development of the new ground which seems to have gone well.

Can he effectively run the club as well.... I haven't a clue.

So he’s once again ran a construction project which was my point.

 

[Dad watched Dixie]

Tom Davies as captain?

Shoot me now!

Wrong John Spellman. You are talking about the ex City of London, now IoM financier. The guy joining our Board is the ex PWC guy who worked in the Canadian Energy Sector and latterly in UK facilities/utilities businesses.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Escaped relegation twice, had the chance to fix things at board level and the club doubles down.

We won't be third time lucky.

...Or will we... depends on your definition of luck and the real outcome.
Not that I would ever want to see us relegated!
As long as we continue to survive, albeit barely, these incompetents will cling on to power it seams.
They are truly self centred, self aggrandising fools!

 

[blulouie]

Woke up to the stories breaking over the investment coming in. Great stuff we'll have a new board in place & finally the club can take steps to heal itself.

Then BANG
BLACK FRIDAY hit us.

As a club with a history of very bad decision making this is right on par with the ridiculous decision to hire Benitez.

I wish I had a different view on the Club that I could just shrug it off & walk away just like my lad has.

I REALLY HATE THIS CLUB.
