2019/20 Bill Kenwright

And why wouldn't you? On a one off matchday I would probably do the same...and depending on how many brandies Id kiss Bernard too
There, I've said it and I don't care.

Imagine going the match and having the audacity to have a wee dram to celebrate a much needed victory.
What a horrible man.

There's links if you Google but as i remember it there was a young lad in alder hey who had a progressive neurological condition and that all specialists had exhausted treatment options and found them ineffective.
Alder Hey made the decision that there was no chance of improvement and were going to transfer him eventually to palliative care basically.
The family refused to accept the decision and wanted to take him to Italy I think to try a treatment that wasn't endorsed by NICE (National institute clinical excellence) as a last resort.
The hospital didn't want him to go because they thought it would cause him suffering and the family wanted to take a chance.
The hospital did everything they could. The family were desperate.
It got pretty ugly.
Bill gave a donation of around 10k to help the family's legal appeal.
I can't remember the result but I know the child still tragically passed away.
There were no winners in that battle and it's a low blow and ridiculous to criticise Kenwright for helping a family with a dying child is beyond contempt.

The Dad was given some sort of award at the Everton Oscars which was ridiculous but his kid had just died. Maybe Bill thought it would help him in his grief.

The Dad was well out of order by the way with his behaviour towards hospital staff which is indefensible despite the situation.

I recalling all this from memory do if I've got some bits wrong then you'll know to use Google instead next time.

Ah I remember this. Didn't loads of utterly repellent hangers-on bring a bouncy castle and BBQ up to Alder Hey for a sit-in "protest" - and a load of them started abusing hospital staff?

Nothing that Kenwright did wrong there as you say but it the episode itself was very unsavoury

Like I said, on a one off match day fair play to him...all his long term failings KD, DK etc. Well thats another story

Yeah the behaviour of the Dad in particular to stoke up hostility and aggression against the hospital and it's staff was disgusting to be honest and obviously rags like the echo didn't help.

The treatment decisions were made by multiple specialists, consultants and professors and they tried to make the decision in the best interests of the patient.

The people getting abused were HCA"s, nurses, SHO"s, students etc. People who had literally nothing to do with the case and if they did they were providing the best care they could.

I'm surprised there wasn't more trouble to be honest, if I walked out after a brutal 13hr shift to be called a child murdering motherflipper I would be absolutely raging.

It's now bedwetting on an unprecedented scale. Upset because our Chairman was happy we won.

 

[larbert toffee]

Kenwright isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination but good on him for showing a bit of passion, Bernard certainly enjoyed it.

 

[Diogenes the Cynic]

I've been given the middle finger three times now this weekend and twice on this forum.

Let's all get behind the Bill the Boys Pen Boss.

Misery loves company.

They'd infect the whole forum with their Everton incontinence if they could.

Bill's ace, keeping the fume away from the players, fair play to him.

It's bad enough coming on here after a loss without coming on here to find some are still moaning after a good win can't we just enjoy the vibe after yesterday and save the whining for when it's deserved.
