Dear Bill Kenwright,

As a man in his late twenties I’ve never known such excitement and hope surrounding this great club before, so much that I felt compelled to write this open letter to you. It hasn’t been an easy ride by all means, you took over from the club when we were in a desperate situation and have shaped the club to be on the cusp of joining the elite.

I have a very vague memory of my first game at Goodison Park. It was a miserable overcast day and we were playing Tottenham. I was misty eyed and in awe of the whole occasion. That was until Les Ferdinand scored twice as Spurs won 2-0. The only lasting memories I have of the occasion are sadness and despair. Those memories are becoming more and more distant now as we stride in to the transfer market with a swagger and made a statement of intent and for the first time in my lIfe time we have the elite clubs worried.

I must say that I think it’s quite unfair that Moshiri, Koeman and Walsh are taking majority of the plaudits for our current situation. It was Bill Kenwright who steered the club through hard times when under Walter Smith, brought in David Moyes when we were desperate and turned us in to regular European place contenders. The sleeping giant was waking up. We are the new kid on the block, we’ve got some boss new clobber, we’ve had 3 cans of Relentless and we’re gonna f*** s*** up.

Sure, Moshiri has pumped money in to the club at a time when we so desperately needed it. If we hadn’t had that injection of cash and Farhad’s ambition and commercial nouse then I fear we would be in a bad place right now. Bill dedicated his life to finding a new majority shareholder and I think he should receive the highest praise for doing so. Moshiri is proving to be a sound choice and coupling his skills with Kenwright’s love and desire for the club to be successful we now have a new stadium in the most perfect location to look forward to. The club is finally making the right moves to break up the elite.

Finally, I would like to pay a special thank you to Bill for bringing Wayne Rooney back to the club. I’m not to embarrassed to admit that I shed a few tears when the announcement was made and I saw his first press conference. The goal he scored in the friendly was reminiscent of the goal he scored against Arsenal which catapulted him to stardom. Our boy is back.

Thanks Bill

boss that
always been a fan of kenwright and think the dogs abuse he gets only makes him staying the course more impressive

make what you will of his tenure, but we were up the creek with Johnson and he stepped up for us, then held on making us competitive till moshiri came along; time will tell the wisdom of it all but it's encouraging

I think the man gave all he could and that's all we can ask

Fantastic post mate.Simply FANTASTIC.The knockers will come knocking in this thread (as they do) .... FFFFFEM . He waited, and not dithered,for the right man to come in .xxx
 

Unbelievable post. Can't believe people have been hoodwinked by this utter fraud. The man's a joke. Zero investment and maximum profit yet still has to be the main man. 3 failed ground moves too.

Well done Bill!!!

Great post mate. I have no doubt that in twenty years' time, if we have a decent period of success within that timeframe, Bill will be seen as having laid the building blocks down for that success.

Yes there have been frustrations and the odd errors of judgment (thinking Kings Dock etc.) but the good that Bill has done far, far outweighs the negative. How we have escaped from the mess we were in in the late 1990's is something Dunkirk-esque.
