At the risk of sounding sanctimonious, I dont think it's right to speculate on anyone's health status, tbh. As much as I've criticised the feller's tenure, it's his private affair. Obviously people are concerned, but it's not our business.

There's obviously a concern but imo it's not right to debate Kenwright's health status on a public forum, and even worse to lump that debate in with discussion on his performance as EFC chairman in an attempt to stifle that second discussion. As you say his tenure has been lamentable.

For all his faults, you won't find a bigger blue than Bill Kenwright.

There are thousands of bigger Blues than Billy Liar.

Kendall was one for example.

A True Blue would have not stood around for a decade doing nothing, adding nothing and lying while the club declined
in status and ambition.

No need for that bs especially in times like this.

Maybe...a month or so ago, but totally inappropriate right now.

Bill is probably one of the nicest guys you can meet as well as being a top Blue, fact is though he doesnt have the money or the know how to successfully run a Football Club.

Why? Obviously we all hope he recovers from his rumored illness but homie above never mentioned his health.

The state of his health shouldnt enter the debate and shouldnt stop the debate about him and the other board members

Maybe a change of tack and debate the other 2 board members rather than Bill at the moment.

It isn't, becasue we have no idea what is wrong with him, and people have been told best not not to speculate, which is kind of what you are doing. Doesn't mean their failings as a board cannot be discussed.

Are you a bit over sensitive?

Anyway, let's hope he's OK but this is a thread about the board so people are entitled to their opinion.

Why didn't you say that to the guy who made the first comment then which said there is no bigger blue?

In what world is going from relegation contenders for how many years to competing towards the top end of the table for europe, and in europe itself a decline? Please enlighten me.

No one knows his condition, should leave all gossip out.

This is a place to discuss the pros and cons of the board not speculate on peoples health

Absolutely.

There's something that makes me a little uneasy about discussing someone's health when we have no real facts.

Probably best to swerve that stuff until it either blows over or something comes to light.
