Any team in the top 5/challenging top 4 are always on tele mate. Has nothing to with Kim Jong Bill.

Except us, for some reason...theres nothing wrong with BK approaching Sky and ESPN looking for more coverage, especially at £500k a pop. People are always complaining that we are not on TV enough....so when the chairman tries to do something about it...he gets negative personal abuse from the usual suspects. Is that fair, when there are plenty of genuine arguments to be had about the running of Everton(or any other football club, for that matter).

Did he actually try and do something about it though ?
 
Davek, Boys In Blue, Blackwatch. You've just proved in this thread that you have an agenda against BK and nothing more. There are plenty of genuine reasons to make a good argument against the present board(as there are at many clubs!) but your desperate efforts to turn even small positives into massive negatives against the chairman in person, show that your agenda is pathetically against him personally and not 'for the good of Everton Football Club'.

There's plenty of reasons why they have an agenda against a man and board slowly ruining our club.

Not true. We were on tv loads in 07/08 and 08/09 and received massive coverage on tv and in the press. We were challenging top 4 for a large chunk of one of those seasons, finished 5th twice, and a fa cup final.

Pushing a TV company to show 1 game for a team fighting for top 4, a game they probably had a chance to show anyway, isnt a earth shaker.

Whoa there. I didn't even have a go at Kenwright. I just posted that if tv companies are showing us more this season, it not because 'Bill had a word/used his 'power', as you seem to be believing verbatim from the Daily Mail's Charles Sale, it's because the team are playing much better on the pitch.

You need to calm down lad. Stop lashing out and making things personal.

It's also not my fault if the Everton Shareholders Association hold a vote and an overwhelming majority request a general meeting with the board to discuss the current running of the club, which they (and many others) are concerned about.

Also, the 'If you're against Kenwright, you're against Everton' division stuff is rather offensive to be honest. Absolutely no need for it and just comes across as pathetic.

I'm not a 'lad' for starters, and if you were not having a dig at Kenwright, you should try to choose your words a little better. And if you find the opinion of a fellow Evertonian 'offensive' it is you who is being divisive. There are plenty on here who show genuine concerns about the club(just as supporters of other clubs show concern for their clubs) but on here, and, yes, on Kipper as well, too many people have no strategy other than to abuse one man. The Blue Union made a complete bollocks of a great opportunity to open a dialogue with the club...it would not have been easy but there was a great opportunity, but they seemed to do nothing more than make Kenwright look foolish, as if this was some sort of triumph. Just the mention of the word 'Kenwright, sets some people off on completely unreasonable rants. There was no harm in BK asking or suggesting that we deserved more coverage on TV. People HAVE been moaning for years about the apparent lack of airtime we get, the order of our game on MOTD, as if it was some sort of conspiracy, which it plainly isn't. It may be that Bills suggestions have no effect, but there is absolutely no harm in stating our case. The BU lost the chance for positive discussion, so now were back to the witch hunt. When you want to have a go at BK, apparently, common sense goes out of the window. I don't know a lot about the ESA, is it made up of small shareholders? If so, their vote carries little weight in the grand scheme of things, the majority of shares being held by the board. The best way to have your voice heard is by trying to get one of the board members on your 'side'....virtually impossible. From BKs point of view, it might be a good start to allow a representative of the ESA to attend board meetings? I still doubt whether much could be changed, however. But simply abusing people is the wrong way to go about things, thats for certain.
