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

[orly]

Are you a child? Think I'll call you Swerve from now on. In my OPINION Moyes will fail at United. When DM first joined Everton I said that although he was the best we could get at the time, he would not be the one to win trophies or get us regularly to do well in Europe. So it has proved.Moyes is a steady hand, which is what United might need at present, because they always have one eye on their share price, and a Mourhino or even a Benitez might prove to be a bit to volatile for the owners. Moyes will have to learn a lot more about tactics,substitutions, and man management very quickly if he is to have any chance of being manager there for any length of time.

Oh..Its Mr Cribb is it? Enough said. Hardly worth wasting valuable time responding to him.
I should have realised when he said the backroom staff had been tapped .....thats right John...next season the Man U backroom staff will be Round, Stubbs, Ferguson, Sheedy, oh dear.

Crabbs is literally hilarious isn't he. Desperately trying to cling to the coattails of any ITK he can find.

Mike Phelan out, Stubbs in, inevitable really

 

[Khalekan]

Tone what down. He is gone, Why would I be interested in someone else manager.

Sorry, I thought you were in favour of Moyes's valedictory game on Sunday.

Humblest apologies.

Sourpuss wears it in honour of our fallen leader.

Hah!

On a side note, remember that post you made a while back with the picture of Johnson in the car as he left Goodison?

Uhhh, yeah... *cough*

 

[Essex Blue]

wrong, backroom staff already got tapped on Sunday. More players will leave than those two and extra money does not hit the post mat till next summer.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think a healthy tranche of the TV money is received by the clubs this season, the bit which is not determined by league performance.

Which is why Moyes stated that clubs will need to find a way of spending the increased TV money this Summer.

The way this thread is turning is making me embarrassed to be an Evertonian. Some of you are like vultures picking at a dead body. This is the time for supporters of this great club to act with dignity, in the great tradition of Evertonians down the years, but no, the self centred ,know all, elitist usual suspects are doing what they do best....kicking at easy targets. Some of you need to take a good look at yourselves, particularly the more 'mature'(!) amongst you.

Steve, a lot are just venting anger and frustration at yet another situation the club have put themselves in. There is nothing the club can do if Moyes chooses to go, not now, that time passed a while ago, when contingencies could and should have been arranged. That they haven't been, if you accept Bill's performance last night was genuine, if not you have to accept he was acting, again, is testament to the inability of the board to conduct their business in a professional manner. Allowing the manager to get to the final home game of his contract without a pointer to his decision is embarrassing. If, however, that is not the case, then it would display some complicity in the unfolding situation. Either way, Bill has gnarlsed up again and the future of the club comes down to a toss of the coin situation. He got lucky the last time we were here with Moyes, do you fancy his chances doing it again? Do you have faith in the board, not just the figurehead, happy as he is to play that role, to do a thorough and professional job in the best interests of the club, with such a growing list of misadventure, mismanagement and sometimes downright stupid decisions they have made over the years? Those numpty decisions have been based recently on the fact that the team had the stability of Moyes, that isn't a factor anymore, and my greatest fear is that the same type of decisions continue to be made with Bill in full on panic mode. The Emperor's new clothes are being laid bare for all to see, pun intended, and the only real hope we have is that there is a hat and a rabbit lying around close by. Let people vent a bit, it's not being vultures at all, it's frustration, anger, its an emotional time and there appears to be, across many forums and discussions, a lack of faith in this being handled in a way that retains any of the dignity that you seek for the institution that links us all. Apologies but cannot get some punctuation to work

Great post!!!!

& you know this how exactly?

The TV revenue is guaranteed & therefore can be used to fund borrowings now. You're peddling a doomsday scenario with no basis in reality.

The decision to guarantee funding based on future incomes does not get passed on that income alone, it gets measured against future business plans, which by all accounts are just about to walk out the door. The banks will decide if funding is allowed, and as is usual at Goodison they will be able to dictate stronger guarantees and terms, or we use that TV money to raise capital from BVI or Jersey or wherever, at premium charges. You know it makes sense, it's the Everton way..

Funnily enough that's how some of us are feeling about the way this shambolic club is run, and the way that all of this has made Everton look very small time and as though David Moyes is bigger than Everton Football Club.

"Vultures picking over a dead body"?????? what do you want us to do Steve? Have a whip round for him? send him a condolence card for losing a manager to one of the richest clubs in the world without receiving a penny of compensation for Everton Football Club?

This is up there with some of the A list cock ups from this lot.

Shall we all doff our hats and say "never mind" again as we hurtle from embarassment to embarassment? Whilst Bill and his board treat shareholders and fans with nothing but contempt?

Nice measured response Magic, as it usually is these days!Have some pressure workwise for the rest of the day, but briefly, I certainly thought that this 'David will decide at the end of the season' was a bit much. I think the relationship between BK and DM is genuinely very strong, but despite this, Kenwright should have forced the issue maybe in February, and said 'sign or go'. Once again BKs emotion got the better of his judgement, and this to me is his achilles heel.

 

[Dell Boy]

Come on Blue Union.

Put out a statement saying "We thank and respect David Moyes for his time at Everton, but any suggestion he can agree to take over Manchester United today and then take control at Goodison against West Ham is an insult to Everton FC" and then something about an EGM.

That is not what all everton fans want tho, anyone no one takes Blue Union serious these days.

 

[NewRadical]

He's the CEO, his company has never been in worse financial health, he has done nothing to turn it round, he even broke his wages:turnover rule that he clearly said must be maintained. Oh and he's a whopper.

Other than that, he is class

He bought this club the best damn lawnmowers it's ever had, pally!
