Devastated here. Not too proud to admit to crying. Can't believe it. An absolute gentleman and a credit to our club.

NSNO. Howard was the best.



RIP Howard.
Gentleman. Evertonian. Legend.

RIP

How poignant that Manchester United are today's visitors. We were the first visitors to Old Trafford after Sir Mat Busby's death in 1994.

I am sure the United supporters will afford the same respect to Howard that we gave to Sir Mat 21 years ago.

Yeah I think they will,

You will be forever missed, but never forgotten. RIP Mr Kendall.

My dad will be devastated. He is two years younger than Howard and has been a massive, massive Evertonian his entire life. He was there against Rapid Vienna, and was at his 'peak' of being a Blue back in the 80s before he became a dad three times over and couldn't afford to go to the game every week any more.

Wish I'd have been able to see some of the successes that my dar did.

"Howard Kendall was an amazing story at Everton, really. This week there was a lot of conversation about players winning easy England caps. The general consensus is that Kendall may well be the finest English player never to win a cap. His chance never came, but he was a wonderful player and a wonderful man for Everton."
Never a truer word.

Rip Howard.
Howard Kendall was before my time but my neighbour played with him as a youngster here in the north east and always told me what a good player he was. Unbelievable achievements as a manager as well, a true legend.
All the best today from a Sunderland fan.

Saw him play in that magnificent late 60s/70s team and of course as manager of the 80s side - he totally "got" Everton from his first day at the club.....so sad and gutted to hear this RIP Howard.
