Care to explain what is going on then?

I don't need to, im not one of those who makes up speculative rubbish about the board on a regular basis.


@canuckblue, i agree about him loving the camera, he hangs himself out when doing that for sure. However Moyes didnt outlive his usefulness, if anything he hung around like a puppet for 4 years too long because no one else was stupid enough to take him off our hands. Got lucky twice with managers? If anything it was Moyes who got lucky with us, he wont land on his feet like that again and he must be gutted he left.

So you cannot thanks for the imput

Not really, he takes the flak because half of those who post made up rubbish about Bill couldnt name any of the other cretins on the board.

Which half?

Well i can but it wouldn't be what you want to hear. Whats going on? well for example Martinez has sisgned a 5 year deal, the team is back in Europe, season ticket sales are fantastic, the squad that starts next season will be stronger than the one that ended the last and no decent players are going to be sold this window

Which half?

The other half

Not sure if this is the right place to put this but Denise Barett-Baxendale , Chairman of everton in the community has been awarded an mbe. For the work in the community that her and the organization put in.

I think the info will get lost in here mate so I've created a thread for it.

When he comes out with tripe and gaffes like the following, and just to name a few, he makes himself an easy target:

NTL deal
King's Dock financing "ring-fenced"
Fortress Sports Fund -- "a means to an end"
"Watch this space"
Searching for investment "24/7"
Kirkby fiasco with "an effectively free world-class stadium"

It's true he doesn't make these decisions alone, but he loves the camera when it suits him, therefore he paints himself as the visible face of the board and as such has to bear the brunt of the criticism. And there's no way he'd ask his backers -- namely Philip Green and Robert Earl -- to take any flak for fear they'd pull the plug. Woods is just as described, a lapdog.
Given Kenwright's lengthy CV when it comes to ballsing things up, plus the fact he's only heard from when things are going decently, is it any wonder a good portion of the fanbase doesn't believe a word that comes out of his gob? The sad fact is his -- and the board's -- incompetence has been glossed over because they got lucky twice with managers -- first Moyes to stabilize things, then getting Martinez when Moyes outlived his usefulness. Sooner or later, though, the juggling act when it comes to not backing the manager and forcing a sell-to-buy mentality will drop the balls.

The failure of Kings dock was Kenwrights doing ? Hmm here's a balanced appraisal of the whole debacle.

So as I said you have no input then?

 

[Blue Cheese]

Just as you think things can't get anymore ridiculous somebody posts a link to bluekipper to justify a debate. the mind boggles again.

I 'get' why the board don't do things and can't get things done. I don't 'get' why certain members are still in place, apart from the 'mates' factor and for the chance to say I own a PL football club.

Because they own the shares. And wont/cant/dont want to sell them.

And surprise, the resident board apologist makes an appearance.
Did he or did he not say the money was "ring-fenced" and if it wasn't, why did he say that? In your own good time, good sir.

The self proclaimed great white Knight that was Paul Gregg had more to do with the demise of kings dock than Kenwright.
