@Steve Wigan can you confirm or deny this please sir ?

First line is opinion, and from what I've heard I would not hold the same opinion.

The story about the restaurant I've never heard before. I once 'nearly' had dinner with BK,Laurie Marsh and Tommy Steele, but the party who invited me cancelled her trip over here due to a family illness, so it didn't happen. I know people who have auditioned for Bill, but have spoken to him only once, very briefly...that was at the Liverpool Playhouse,while watching one of his shows. I said ' Do you think this will open in London,Bill?' and he replied 'As you can see, it needs a lot of work on it before that'
That's the sum total of any direct contact I've had with BK, although I have heard a lot of stories about Bill, I have to say most of them have had a positive spin. He's known as a very tough negotiator,loyal to his friends almost to a fault, but he can also apparently be a serious enemy if he falls out with you. The facts about the low wages he pays outside London are mostly correct, but he pays the names 'fairly' and London rates for London shows. Budgeting for shows in the provinces is tight, but I've been told on a few occasions that if it were not for Bill, many provincial theatres would no longer exist,so its a compromise and keeps a lot of performers in work,and they would rather work than not work,like the majority in their profession.

Thanks Steve ;)
 


To be fair a lot of us were fooled by Moshiri as well.The esk wasn't the only one.

its becoming abundantly clear that he is NOT the one running the club, Bill still runs this club and Moshiri has a say. I think Bill pipes him down on most things tho, just confusing the whole situation.

Moshiri doesn't seem to have that leadership skill set required to make decisive decisions at the top level.

he is seemingly out of his depth. As is Bill, but weve known that for years
 
weve all been saying this for years.

He thought Moshiri was the saviour of the club.

how wrong he is being made to look (again)

If he had the bollocks or sense to take full control and bring in more men like the Russian fella and boot out Kenwright/Elstone then he might still be, but whilst he allows the current situation to continue we are going backwards.

I honestly feel we are like a runaway train, but I don't know how big the end disaster bit is going to be..
