Appeal for witnesses...

[Street end man]

It's not just local news now, it's national in every paper and news channel. I applaud Merseyside police for their statement, they didn't really need to do it.

Anyway, it puts to bed the theory the headlock incident was kept quiet because of a criminal investigation.

The noose tightens! Hope they are squirming.

Good evening dear galaxy brains.

You are indeed a victim of the heinous crime of your football club being badly ran. As an opposed people I stand with you in your campaign against lying women and other stuff you get dead angry about.

Genuinely my brain doesn’t even tell me to do it, my thumbs just take over and press buttons to make the most rudest of posts. Plz send help.

That's why the campaign should just simply be a Kenwright Out campaign and the chants should just be "Kenwright out".

I've got a feeling they will all resign, can't see any way back for any of them after this past few months, it's like a really nasty divorce in play between them and us getting played out in public.

Apologies if this has been posted but wouldn't you love it if we scored a late winner at West Ham and the team celebrated by putting the goal scorer in a headlock? ?

Not sure which part is the most unlikely - we score a goal, we score a winner, or the headlock?

So it's not true?

Can you show me that it is true?

I can’t see any of the board setting foot back inside Goodison again.

Lowest of the low.

I think they will tbh, there’ll be murder & they’ll come out with something like “I told you so”

No.

Nah, Kenwright will do a ham acted coronary scene from Macbeth in a Kenneth Williams stylee while pointing his finger at the Park End " infamy, infamy..."

I'm totally dumbfounded by all of this? How has there been no police contact/report filed if what has been reported regarding alleged threats and an actual assault on a female director did occur, it doesn't add up. Now if true then all of us rational Evertonians will condone such behaviour yet there doesn't appear to be any evidence of an assault which would be incredible considering the world of big brother we live in and now reading the police report that they have no knowledge of such incidents prior to the game Saturday. What the hell is going on? If evidence does surface then fair enough action must be taken, violence will never be something I will condone but I'm left extremely confused and perplexed. Surely this hasn't been made up, it would be the most stupid things an individual could do. Apologies if I've got my information wrong and the accusations did occur but I've struggled to find any evidence to back up the claims.. What a time to be a blue christ.

I think (hope) you meant to say “condemn”?

There‘s an amazing amount of super sleuthing going on here. Here’s my two cents for what they are worth. What do we actually know? We know there was a club statement (the timing stunk) and we know this has been given a little more detail by a journalist crediting the detail of the physical interaction to unnamed sources. We know the advice to stay away was from security advisors and not the police who are ‘working with the club’.

It is now incumbent for the club to release a statement - not releasing a statement to shed further light on this is irresponsible. Not releasing a statement also undermines their the statement they released on Saturday. I understand the cynicism that this is a distraction technique from the Bill Kenwright ‘playbook’ but the reality is it may be genuine. Members of an unhappy fan base can at times act in ways which are not appropriate. I would ask this simple question though. Apart from the obvious demands for evidence, if there had been an allegation of this when we say, fighting for Europe, or at another club, (where there would be no protest) would people have been so quick to dismiss of question the veracity of the allegation?
