Bill Kenwright

Moshiri is largely an absentee owner. Kenwright and his appointees run the club day-to-day.

Absentee owner, that in itself says a lot about Moshiri, Stan was right to keep him away from any Arsenals matters

Rather have plucky little Everton then the one before him that twice avoided relegation on the last day and the one now that looks to be heading that way, yeah the plucky little Everton that had European football was awful.

the furthest we got was the last 16 lol . We had good times though

Had that down to the appointees TBH. Figured taking patronising phone calls from Mike Riley was about it.

Oh, good. While I've got you.

Yeah, shame he didn't hang on though, unfortunately some wanted him to sell, and not many complained when he did, be carful what you wish for

He couldn't hang on, because the BHS scandal blew up the little scam he had going with Green and Earl. You know, the one that he explicitly said wasn't the case, and which, along with the Mansour revelation, also suggests that the 24/7 search for investment was a complete fabrication (as did Elstone's stadium inquiry testimony, stating that the club could not be sold at any point during the multi-year exclusivity agreement with Tesco).

Luckily for Arsenal, Kroenke's money is his own. I know he's not the most well-liked of owners, but at least he doesn't shore up his position with robbed pension funds.

Our time to protest was in the 90s as we declined alarmingly. Any upset now is on the back of 30 years of average mid table finishes and plucky little Everton.

So the protests come across as shallow and ungrateful to how BK turned Everton around. On another point they say the greatest trick the Devil performed was convincing people he didn't exist.

The greatest trick Kenwright ever performed was convincing people Everton were nothing before he arrived.

Argument killed in one post . Superb

I second that. When flabby face exits in whatever way, I will have a party.

Wasn't it kenwright who spent years looking for the perfect owner ?

He spent years looking for a rich idiot who'd let him stay on at the club. Eventually he found that person.

He's done irreversible damage during the two and a half decades he's been in the club, we're now a charity for the game's wastrels.

 

[EFCPaul]

The day he was applauded on the screen against Aston Villa , whilst I respected people’s rights to do so, I couldn’t help but feel a little bemused and downhearted about it.

I would never state or think I’m a man of vast intelligence or predictive of the future , my gut instinct after that was this isn’t the Everton i thought i knew. In other words my feelings about what the club was or is now were a bit misguided.

When that happened I gave up on this club, I accepted we'd never be heavyweights like we once were. All we can hope for now is maybe winning a cup again at some point, but we'll never be champions or even contenders ever again. Half raised my hopes with Ancelotti but still didn't fully believe it.

People simply don't want to be a club that takes the steps to make those ambitions possible. Too many instesd want to sit in their arse with a pint and grumble because ths RS are winning instead forcing out the man who singulary more than anyone else destroyed any respect other people English football had for us. The day he's totally out of the picture will be one I celebrate heartily.

The amount of abuse Bill gets is nothing short of disgusting. He was a millionaire owner just when the Billionaire era started taking over. I didn't see many others, like mommys boy Granchester, opening their wallets/getting backers to dispose that horrible kopite Johnson. Regardless of who helped him, his appointment of a relatively unknown manager in Moyes can only be seen as a success.
The abuse he gets on certain matters are ridiculous like NTL, apparently he should have known they we going under, Gregg wanted to have us bent over a barrel with his proposal for the stadium and now he is getting abuse for Moshiri actions. How on earth that's Bill's fault is anybody guess. Moshiri is his own man and made terrible decision after terrible decision. It's also bills fault that Moshiri chose to let him stay on the board, again did Bill twist his arm

He blew the Kings Dock mate, the was issues with funding but the sticking point was the investors wanted 55% ownership so we never had full control, so what we would have had a new stadium .but we could have taken full control in the future. Then came investors looking for a club and were supposedly interested in our club but punted for the club with a new stadium which was city, thank Bill

Why should he step down? Do we really want Moshiri to have a free reign to totally kill us? Because he will, the last 6 years of poor ownership has shown us that but because we have a new ground being built people are taken in by it, even though that wont benefit Everton, not the way he runs the club.
When Kenwright owned the club we were never in the mess we are now, as much as people want to re write history that is a fact

Jesus Christ.

It's like the Villa game all over again.

Tell me, on the Titanic, did your grandad play the Cello or the Violin as he accepted the inevitable slide to the bottom?

I'm actually disgusted that some people still openly refuse to apportion blame towards the Chairman. It's *always* somebody else's fault. He's one of us, he's hurting as much as everyone else etc.

You know on FBI drama shows when they're trying to piece together a crime syndicate? They have load of photos on the wall with bits of string? We could do one for Everton. Every string connected to dismal failure leads to Kenwright.

Enjoy your Hotpot fellas.

Exactly that.

Cries of 'Kopite behaviour' are often heard when protest is mooted.

We absolutely have the club we deserve for being so passive. It seems we should just be grateful to be Evertonians and accept what President Kim, sorry... Kenwright tells us.

Any Evertonian who puts his head above the parapet and calls him out publicly is a hero. I have seen people stand up at AGMs shaking like a shitting dog because they know he's about to humiliate them with a pithy dismissal to snickers from his arse sniffers nearby.

The lads behind the Blue Union secretly recording the interview was outstanding. He only granted them an audience because he assumed they were on the fence over him and his tales of yesteryear would turn them into disciples.

One would hope the 27 years campaign has the support of around 37'000 people at the last home game this season.

Support the team. Savage the board.

NSNO is a distant memory, dismantled by one man.

Remember his histrionics after that?
Claiming he felt like he’d “been raped”.
