He can't appoint a manager just because a few thousand people on the internet have 'chosen' a candidate. That's madness.

I agree, but you don't come out and say you're going through a process if you've only had the intention of appointing one guy from the off. That's my opinion based on what I've read.
 

Or it could just be that he's the best option. Quite a leap to determine that it's lying, especially as Kenwright never said he would appoint whoever the fans wanted. He said he would listen to the fans, and seeing as he's interviewed the two most popular candidates (Laudrup was never in the frame) i don't see how he's lied.

There is no candidate wanted by 'most' blues, the most popular option is Pereira but even he only has 38% of the vote, and most of the people clicking his name hadn't heard of the guy until six weeks ago. Laughable to expect he'd hire somebody based on that.

Is Pereira even a 'manager' ? Strikes me as more of a coach, which is not what Everton need. We can't afford to hire a director of football, we need somebody to take the reins in all aspects of the job Moyes did.

You know as much as I know Brennan, so just as you're free to speculate so am I :)

Strikes you as more of a coach, strikes me as more of a manager in the making and a winner.

I'm not a fan of Bill by any stretch of the imagination, but he didn't mean it literally. He's interviewed Vitor, we know that much, and he clearly hasn't impressed him, that's his choice.
 

You're entitled to your opinion, so please don't' take offence by this. But I'm also entitled to mine. When you set out to go through an interview process, say you're going to consult the fans and then appoint the guy that all rumors point towards you having decided upon before the interview process began, that's called lying. It reeks of an internal stitch up before the process began, it happens in business and for me it's happened at our club.

So yes for me he's lied.

You can use the term 'fans forums choice', but surely as the fans forums are a representation of the fans because they're voted on by the fans.

He didn't say he'd 'consult' with fans at all, he said he'd listen to their opinion - there's a massive difference.

The fact that he's appointed the 'pre-race' favourite, doesn't equate to the entire process being a sham, that's nothing more than assumptive bollocks on your part mate.
 
I'm not Bill's biggest fan by any stretch of the imagination, but he didn't mean it literally. He's interviewed Vitor, we know that much, and he clearly hasn't impressed him, that's his choice.

I'm surprised there haven't been any accusations of 'fake interviews' to go with the 'fake bid' ones from January. The way this thread is going it surely can't be far away.

Sorry to butt in, but how do you know this? Just the press/media?
