Chairman of the board ( and Majority shareholder) protects share price shocker.
Did mean to mention that very fact earlier.His poodle Estone yapped that nothing would be "off the table" and then a few minutes/hours later The big Dog himself refused point blank to answer a question.
See my post Lordy. Wake up to the never ending rubbish from Billy Bullshit.
Sir Bill of Kenwright CBE, MBE, OBE, R2D2, C3PO, CPS, CSA, B&H
is great. Lord grand master of the toffeemen, saviour of the universe. give the man a knighthood.
Oh come on Goat, grow up. You are acting like a child, trying to take everything said at it's literal face value and not at it's obvious meaning.
If you had said "Hey Elstone, do you give it to your wife up the arse", you couldn't have demanded an answer on the grounds that he said "nothing was off the table". Some questions are self-evidently not going to be answered under any circumstances. "Who do you think is the worst player in the first team squad", for example, would not be answered by Moyes.
What you want is to be told the selling price to make you feel better, because you are curious. That's it. Giving away such information ALWAYS costs the seller money when it comes to sale time - depending on the sale, how many buyers etc, it could take tens of millions off the value (as you could never get an auction going if you state your price). So what you want is for Kenwright to give up millions of his own money, plus millions of Robert Earl's money to make you feel better.
And you also want to claim Kenwright is a bad Evertonian because he won't.
Come on mate, that's not fair. I like Bill, and appreciate many things about his tenure here. But Goat is correct in pointing out the things he has. This was Bill's chance to do a nice PR defensive, but he chose to act like a spoilt brat. Whether or not it was sensible or necessary to answer the questions posed, doesn't excuse the way he reacted to them.
Well Goat said "His poodle Estone yapped that nothing would be "off the table" and then a few minutes/hours later The big Dog himself refused point blank to answer a question."
which to me read more like a complaint that a question wasn't answered even though Goat felt it should have been. His other points (such as "what share price is he protecting") suggest to me a problem with not answering the question, rather than (or as well as) the retort used.
I agree that the transcript looks bad. I'd like to reserve judgement until I saw the full context for myself, but if Kenwright did act like that then he shouldn't have.
However, I think Goat did have an issue with the question not being answered based on the tone of his post, and I also have an issue with Kenwright being guilty until proven innocent, in terms of an selectively edited transcript being treated as a gospel interpretation of events.
But that is a bit rhetoric which was surrounded by a deeper, pertinent point. Bill came out of it looking bad and this was entirely due to his own petulance.
