Nicked from another forum.
As silent as a flouncing lurker, dust
descends all while a dough-faced chairman dreams
beside a silent fax machine, long bust,
while far away a head-locked exec screams.
He dreams of all the good times he has wrought;
of tear-filled 'phone calls, yielding at the last;
the ancient crocks and never-beens he’s bought,
the Vicks and Deep Heat fumes of deadlines past.
He stirs to wipe a tear before it burns
the fax rolls nestled ‘neath his tousled dome,
and dreaming, soils himself as Ross returns –
a squirt of joy for bringing a Blue home.
And sure as dawn – no if, no and, no but –
another transfer window slammeth shut…

That's class!
He's gonna be there for Fulham at home isn't it he?!
He'll chance his arm anyway

He might be chancing more than his arm, judging by the comments from his GOT "fans". If I was him I would stay away. His bridges are well burned.
Even though Moshiri told us that bill needs to sign off all transfers

Only know about the Arnautovic one in the winter where he was able to overrule Mosh and that seems a decent decision in hindsight as that player wasn't fit, was overpriced and too old already to provide any resale value. Usually in the Mosh-era signings have been 'Director'-led (Walsh, Brands etc).
Kenwright before the Mosh-era did pretty well with signings, back when he had hands-on influence (due to controlling the finances).
Agree it's time for him to go, he's got nothing left to offer us. But in terms of who's done real damage to the club, it's not Bill Kenwright.
Looks like Mosh is here to stay too, now that he's on the Board of Directors. In my opinion it's Moshiri our energy should be focussed on. Bill is a spent force.
Bill Kenwright is actively involved in transfers, as per the owners words
Bill Kenwright was/is the chairman of a club that was treading water for 15 years
Bill Kenwright sold our soul to Phil Green, solely to protect his own trainset
Bill Kenwright has let Everton fail commercial from the day he purchased the club
Bill Kenwright brought Farhad Moshiri to Everton football club and remained chairman, happy to take money, whilst the club was crumbling around him
He also allowed a fat kopite pig to be appointed
Most of all, Bill Kenwright, the greatest living Evertonian, was complicit in throwing every match day fan under the bus in order to protect his own media perception

Why are you trying to make out like they’re opposing forces?
Honestly, it isn't even worth replying to the nugget.

Finishing top 6 a few times, qualifying for Europe, reaching cup finals, signing world-class like Lukaku (our best multi-season striker since Bob Latchford in the 70's).
We've been going downhill for the last 7-8 years (ever since Mosh took over) but before that - under Bill's outright chairmanship - we were consistently best of the rest.
Let's give the old blue his due and save our ire for who's really causing the damage.

Not doing that, just highlighting who the real damage is. But there is even an argument Bill & Mosh are opposing forces (see the Arnautovic example, for one).
David Moyes that lad, worked wonders with pennies from his chairman sue to failure at board room level
And buying the odd top player is not really success
