Ian Wright knows he was used as a patsy a few months back, for which he apologised for.
We are seeing that anger continue.
Annoys me no end how quiet our former players are. Very few of them pipe up - wonder why...
Because Danny, put simply, to do so would alienate them from the '
club' - not the fans, not the real entity that is the club, but the monstrosity behind the scenes.
Look at the likes of Southall, who isn't allowed at Goodison because of his views. He's an easy example, but there are others who we know aren't welcome.
Alternatively, there have been players who've been happy to toe the line due to the benefits it brought them in terms of cushy, paid positions and hospitality.
However, after Sharp, I suspect there'll be less of those who put their name forward, so hopefully the board will become more isolated in their position.
In terms of your comment about being an Evertonian not being a prerequisite on the board, I totally agree. I want the right person, with the right skills, doing it.
Nepotism and whatnot, where loyalties can become manipulated, isn't what we need.
