[milkshock]

Suarez new contract while delefeuo is back in Spain, baines and Barkely ignore everton overtures as Martinez ponders short term loans to cover injuries

[Carlito]

Don't both teams?

Cardiff didn't before Tan came in and started improving the squad.

Proper [Poor language removed] that Fernandes fella.

My issue is, our current board are doing nothing except thread water while all our competition around us are thrashing us commercially off the pitch.

Today we are doing brilliant on the pitch, but off it is what worries me. The likes of Robert Earl is not going to invest or try to improve Everton, he wants to make money off us just like all these terrible owners people keep mentioning. At least they pretend to care, we got rid of one bad egg in Gregg for an even worse one in Earl / Green.

All it takes is a few bad seasons and a drop in table with less prize money coming in and we will be in the deep stuff.

Him and his mate Green are laughing their bollocks off sitting on those shares and just waiting for some mugs to step forward with a new stadium scheme they can sell the club off the back of.

They're the type of unscrupulous scum good ole Bill has handcuffed Everton to.

Well done Bill. 14 years *in charge* and all you have to show for it is two ****ing gangsters sitting in the wings taking the piss.

 

[Ihaters]

He's one of the better ones for not making Everton play in red and for not calling us Everton Rovers.

Yeah. Well done Bill. Great effort over 14 years. You've really made an impact there lad.

And not getting us relegated like QPR, Leeds, or Blackburn, and not putting us into administration like Portsmouth, and keeping us improving and chosing the right managers, and moving us from a regular look over the brink into the championship every year, to european contention for the last decade.
He really has made an impact there, yes your right.
We were a terrible team in the 90's.. Now we are not. We were regularaly 16th/17th when he took over... last year we were 6th. That is a major impact.

That we are not a great team like we were in the 80's, playing in Kings Dock, that Bill lies to the fans, hides things, talks nonesense, has an ego that would make North Koreans roll their eyes and is massive tool, is worthy of more than a little grief, but if you think the majority of owners have done better then him during his time at the club, you are wrong.

Its just how bad the club ownership in the league is, but we've done well under Bill no matter how much it hurts to admit it, and he's kept our tradition and history in tact.

 

[Carlito]

...or booting a club out of its hundred and odd year home into another town....just like Kenwright tried to do.

We have NOTHING to be thankful for having this failure as our apparent majority owner.


We're four days away from the 14th anniversary of Kenwright et all taking over from Johnson. 14 years of broken promises on investment and stadium delivery.

It's an appalling record and there's no context it can be seen as good in.

Kirkby would have been worse than anything Tan or Allam have done. Kenwright can't come back from that as far as I'm concerned.

Kirkby is history, forget it. Thing are looking up at Everton, thankfully Moyes has gone and we are moving forward, all that stuff in the past needs to be let go as we move into what can be a new era

I love it, when as a defence for bill, they start to compare everton to the QPR's and Blackburns of the world. Erm weren't we one of the original big five!! Let compare us to them, the financial model and then lets qualify, Bill's performance.

We weren't one of the big 5 when Kenwright took over, we were one of the worst teams in the league. Those around the bottom are the ones we need to compare to. Not a group from a period of unrelated history.
He improved us from where we were, its a very simple truth. No amount of damage he has almost done, or missed opportunities alters that fact.

 

[dannyboy]

Short term loans haha.

Same old story, no ambition, plucky little Everton giving the big boys a run for their money.

File under Matt Damon's "At Least We're Not Villa" boardroom defence.

His defenders will insist Bill was against this move at heart and couldn't wait to get rid of it. That may or may not have been the case. I tell you what's not under doubt though: he'd have run skipping to the bank with the wedge he'd have made from selling his shares on the back of it if it had it been forced through.

The fellers a rodent and well matched with the other vermin he's dragged into the club and now stinking it out.

You'll find it easier to find if you file it under truths you refuse to see because they mention positives about Bill.
You'll find it just in front of the similarly named Moyes file in your filing cabinate of things your too blinkered to accept.

Kenwright's tenure has been a failure.

stadium = fail
investment = fail
bridging the gap off the pitch with competitors = fail
keeping hold of star players = fail
providing managers with enough cash = fail

His only success is to pull the wool over enough people's eyes who buy into his utter tosh and flannel thus preventing him being beaten with sticks and run out of town...oh, and his ability to have Everton continue to play in blue, and, erm, be still called 'Everton'.

Don't forget he never ordered the killing of our firstborn sons, just like chairman Herod at Bethlehem City.

The greater part of the damage had been done as you say before BK took over when Johnson was chairman.

As for Dave, perhaps you should ad to the list.

Moved out of the relegation zone,
Got into Europe a couple of times, failure there doen to Moyes not BK
Agree stadium was a fail
But investment? Johnson ripped him off, has no cash yes would rather we had Tan, Fernandes, The Villain man, Glaezers, Hicks and Co, Red Bull???
Which star players, Rooney and Fellaini?
Think Moyes did have quite a bit of cash if you look at his signings, how much did Bily cost?

You only ever see one side of things, that which suits you and ignore the rest.
