I believe him when he says he does not take a penny out of the club.

I believe he is trying to find a buyer.

I may be gullible, but I do believe he'd sell if he could.
 

Ok the club staged a show of support for Bill Kenwright,is this any different from the bu staging a protest ?
No, if its ok for one group to do it then it's ok for the other.

It was a dignified and spontaneous round of applause, if they didn't show his face, they'd be asking why.

To be fair, the protest was dignified also.

All in all, better than what had preceded from all involved
 
Fair play to the lids, i dont agree with it, but you have to respect people who beleive their convictions and act on it, the difficulty now will be keeping momentum - its well and good having one protest and there is a novelty value - having one every week now - will not be as effective.

the encouraging thing is that unlike other protests this one was well supported and things CAN snowball. everyweek? no way - but things can develop and stratergies built.

will it change much? - i'm not so sure but at least people are not just sitting back and accepting this crap.

i'm not a member of any of the blue union groups but i support them, very shocked that people outside of the club are ****ging them off.

and after the protest? 100% backing for the team in goodison.

How though mate - is there a strategy for keeping the momentum going - i remember Newcastle had about 50 marches against Ashley and they may as well have been urinateing in the wind - fair play like to the lids - but what was evident in the ground i think was that the majority still have a lot of time and support for Sir Willliam of the boys pen.

not sure mate, as above it's for the blue union to sort this out. the newcastle example is a good one too, and a chilling reminder to evertonians imo.

It was still passable on the pavements, mate. I'd say if you were in the middle of that road you were on that march. Those who weren't stood aside. Without getting all trainspotter with the numbers and stuff, it was a high turnout that I didn't expect, tbh, knowing the too cool for school attitude many have. As for Fathead's support: he got a sympathetic ripple of applause. I woudn't make too much of it, just as I wouldn't make too much of his getting booed in the two previous home performances this season when he appeared on screen.

As I shuffled along by the entrance of The Winslow there were a load of fellas standing outside saying "that's just embarrassed our club..." laughing.

Seems the fans are very much split on this. Quite what percentage split is up for debate.

Didn't see any animosity between the fans though, so seems like a lot of them in true scouse style can agree to disagree.

I felt the fans got behind the team yesterday, but the reason that happened was down to the players showing passion and commitment right up until the final whistle.

1,000 people is a good start so fair play to those that did turn out. But how many were at the game yesterday 38,000 or so? and how many of those who portested then went into the stadium and enjoyed the game?

See those who protested and then went in and watched the game in my opinion are sort of hypocritical. How can you hate a regime and protest against and with your very next move spend your cash and go and watch the game. Ok yes people are going to tell me that they went in to support the team blah blah blah.... But if everyone does this Bill still makes his money the evil board still take your hard earned cash and they laugh at your efforts.
