The Everton Board Thread (Inc. Bill Kenwright / Blue Union)

[Dylan]

The thread is tedious because it takes two to tango. The 'wrongers and 'righters. The 'righters aren't playing ball right now as the thread is like a dog chasing its own tail. The 'wrongers seem hot on insults but are so short on solutions it makes this thread a waste of time.

But management want this in a single thread, and so we have it.

I've now filed it under "look in, don't waste time posting, go out and watch paint dry"

that's because we don't need a new thread for every person who needs to compliment or complain about Kenis- (thanks Leon, and using that from now on). It makes it easier for us to manage, and let's be perfectly honest, it is the exact same opinions being repeated page after page by both sides of the coin.

Does anyone want to hear my opinions on the financial state of Aston Villa?

... Downing's gonner be sold. No question.

Oh yes. Kenis... and all that.

i would love to hear something positive about our finances,
or, an explanation of why, with at least TWO very wealthy people on the board, we are struggling for "investment".
but i doubt anything new will be brought to light, and i will just get p#####d off that this club has been run into the ground by a succession of poor,financially and otherwise, chairmen. the fans deserve so much more.

I'm not actually complaining just stating an opinion of what appears to be the consequences of a thread where the argument is limited to "yes he is", erm, "no he isn't" And that is why I don't participate. I can't be arsed caught up in arguements that go round and around. When something substantial comes up I'll be more than happy to participate. But at the moment the paint is drying to a nice crescendo and that seems more exciting.

and this is what i don't get, the thought of this club being so poorly run makes my blood boil, yet this attitude of " well lets wait and see...." WHY? SEE WHAT? if we win the league without spending money? or end up like sheffield wednesday etc? the board have FAILED time and time again, yet some on here seem to think that by some miracle, they will succeed . just keep watching that paint/space.

If you can explain to me how to get rid of a board when nobody is buying the club, I'll buy into that.

You can't sell if there are no buyers. So, take the floor, explain how its gonna be done because being an internet warrior ain't cuttin' it. Its not the situation that I'm blase about, its the fact that nobody cares to come up with a workable solution. All they want to do is moan, moan moan, as if moaning will change the world.

Well it won't so we need to get real and focus on SOLUTIONS.

You counted, bless. I mean currently because I've participated in the past and the above sentence illustrates why I'd rather watch paint dry than continue this morbid discussion.

Poster A: I really dig Tigers. Can someone explain why my favourite animal is no longer thriving? I love them so much but it just seems like each year there are less and less tigers.

Poster B: That's because of human encroachment on their territory, the reduction of their hunting grounds and human predation to sell their skin and bones to a lucrative market mainly based in China. Also the animal being solitary and wide roaming needs more land to live in than most large mammalian predators and due to scarcity of animals they find the opportunity to mate greatly reduced. Pollution and toxins in the food chain make up the final ingredient that sees Tigers inching towards extinction in the wild.

Poster A: Yeah, but loads of other animals do well. My mate likes Rock Pigeons and they're doing really well.

Poster C: Yeah its bull**** about tigers becoming extinct. I blame it on Kenwright. Because I've got a mate that likes rats and there's loads of them.

Poster B: Look, I've explained why Tigers are dying out in the wild. That's just the circumstances we find ourselves in. Perhaps when environmental conditions continue we can do better but...

Poster A: No its Kenwrights fault. My mate likes Lynx's and they've had a change in fortune.

Poster B: Yes they have. They are almost extinct.

Poster A: Look, Philip Green could save the environment and all the animals, like Noah and his ark if he just cared enough.

Poster B: Why would he do that? Does he even care about the environment? What's in it for him. How has the fundamental environmental model changed recently that would see these people care about the environment?

Poster A: But i really like tigers.

Etc. (bill oddie helped me with this post)

You're connecting discussing the Everton board, with unhealthy discussion of diseased,disturbing, and unpleasant issues?

rather than sit back and do NOTHING, maybe let the board know the supporters are not happy with the lack of anything, investment,planning, communication. but seeing as you, and others, feel this is beneath you, just go back to your paint watching. it sure beats space watching.

You know your bang on the money here, ive been through enough summers on here to know the score, usually its pretty safe up till July, this year for whatever reason people are cracking. I think ill give the whole thing a wide bearth for the reaminder of the summer, sit back laugh at the furey and watch lids do ninja stuff with their key boards.

You still can't handle the simple fact let alone the elegant allegory.
