Bill Kenwright

[JLW]

He’s not going anywhere is he?

The egostisical knob head.

Bill Kenwright will not move himself he has to removed by the owner, I would make it loud and clear to the club if he is Chairman come the start of the season there won’t be a single fan turning up to games until he’s gone.

If he talks to his doctor it will be clear the last thing he needs is free meals.

His doctor told him to retire 10 years ago apparently

I confess I haven't listened to the podcast, is anyone able to summarise why this is being floated as an idea?

His shares make up 1.3% of the club - and he doesn't own them to make money. He owns them because he enjoys the status of being an Everton shareholder. The same reason he wants to be Chairman.

Why would he countenance selling them to fans who (rightly) want him out?

I think your wrong mate maybe it wasn't always the case but for him now it's all about the money.
He has already pocketed 30 million plus from the club and now seems he'll bent on squeezing ever last penny.
If he really does love the club why doesn't he sell his remaining shares to season ticket holders maximum of 10 each at £896 a share which is what he paid.
This would give him another 1.5million which he could then donate the money to EITC.
If he truly loves the club he could walk away with a little bit of dignity and maybe not completely be despised by the fan base.

48 hours has become about 180 hours

Maybe they meant 48 days, or 48 weeks

Keep up Tim, it was confirmed last Friday that it was 48 light years Everton meant to say. Just a typo on the website regarding the 48 hours thing.

Okay, you're entitled to disagree.

But his drag on Everton isn't financial. The drag comes from his influence. The culture of underachievement and latterly chaos that he's presided over.

It seemed strange that the announcement related to Bill was delayed when the others were announced last Monday. Well of course apart from him perhaps wanting to make a production out of leaving. Stranger that there has been a complete blackout on comms relating to Bill since.

There is some news about relating to a PL club executive being interviewed by police over allegations relating to a historic matter. The police interview was conducted last Monday. To be clear I'm not making an accusation and know nothing about it, just highlighting the day of the police interview.

I doubt Bill can even find his pecker

Apparently the event happened a long long time ago

It was a Premier league manager.

We told him to retire 20 years ago!

Nothing more Everton than declaring a transfer window a success before any new signings have actually played a game.

Waaay ahead of your time on this one sir

No striker, nearly killed us.

A light year measures distance, not time.

Yes, I am fun at parties.

Was it? Most reports I saw said executive which suggests higher than the manager. Some said 'boss' which admittedly could be anyone from the manager up.

Based on the fact she was a teenager at the time and is now a mature woman, there ain't many managers that fit that profile 1 or 2 at a push. Assume based on the force interviewing it is likely to be someone that is currently based in London possibly someone that was also based there however many years ago 20, 30, 40?
