Kenwright on Investment

[GrandOldTeam]

"The truth is Everton do need a billionaire. Of course that's a stock phrase, but we do need major investment," said Kenwright. "One of the difficulties of being a chairman who has had to use money as wisely as he possibly knows how, is that it's hard when you get bombarded, as I have been in the last three AGMs, with questions like 'Why can't we have what Newcastle have? West Ham? Portsmouth?'"
He added: "I even got Notts County last year. A former Everton employee had gone there and evidently there was some rumour mill that I turned down Arab millions beforehand.
"Am I hopeful? I've been hopeful before, and nothing's come of anything. But I will find that investment.
"Keith Harris from Seymour Pierce is probably the top football investment broker. He has been, alongside others, looking for us.
"Every name you see that has been out there looking for football clubs, we've spoken to them. We've had people in the Far East, America, Switzerland, Japan."

Well said Bill.

My view has been one that Bill may never be able to take us much further forward, especially financially.
However, he would never let us slide into oblivion as per above examples in the article.

Also, despite having his detractors on here, look at the positivity shown by many for next season. This season would have been a good one but for injuries in all likelyhood.

So it's not all bad is it? We are in a good place with our squad and manager IMHO.

 

[BigBlueConk]

Maybe a couple of quality right-sided players short, but all in all a good squad developing.*

*All subject to whoever leaves!

 

[Whitebootman]

I'm hopefull, I'm also patient. Bill is doing a great job and has the interest of the club at heart. Well said Bill.


Now, do I hear cynical footsteps comming up behind me to snipe away.

 

[Brownie]

Why does he do it? Could he not just have said, "if you look at some of the recent examples in football, it is very difficult to find good investment of the kind of level we require". Instead he's gone, "fans are so stupid, I mean I had one idiot who suggested NOTTS COUNTY as a model for us, hahaha". It's as if he LIKES dave slaughtering him.

Buy Landon Donovan, and maybe you'll boost US interest, and get a Yank billionaire.
Now that's a good investment...

“Keith Harris from Seymour Pierce is probably the top football investment broker. He has been, alongside others, looking for us. Every name you see that has been out there looking for football clubs, we’ve spoken to them. We’ve had people in the Far East, America, Switzerland, Japan. Robert Earl is no slouch and he’s out there looking. Jon Woods is out there looking. I’m out there looking.”

And this bit is a disgrace:


“Now 99per cent of my mail is “don’t listen to the idiots”. I’ve always believed that everyone has a right to air their opinion, but unless you know the facts – unless you’re in the hot seat having to make the decisions – your judgement can be very confused. And that’s a polite way of putting it!”


The man who let the NTL deal go west; sold Rooney for a song; signed up to Destination Kirkby; ramped up the level of debt; and concocted the FSF takeover scam to stay in control is accusing his detractors of confusion and idiocy.


He should be making an apology to all and standing down forthwith, but the hard faced fcuker is brazening it out and blaming everyone but himself and promising a future of jam tomorrow as per usual.


Bankrupt.

Kenwrights doing fine for me. If he doesnt say anything he gets slaughtered, when he does theres still people willing to question why he is saying it, and the timing of when he says it. I trust him.

Must admit those were my thoughts exactly.

tbh I'd rather he say nothing. The silly stuff that he says only adds to the animosity amongst fan.

Out of interest Dave, was this the same BK that got an enormous fee for Lescott last summer? Or was that down to Moyes and Rooney down to BK?

Bankrupt.

I disagree with you. I understand he will get flak for solely being in his position, but you will refuse to see the benefits of him holding out for the right investment.

It is seeing vitriol like this written about him that for some reason makes me want to support him more. He is doing a job, whether you like him or his methods or not.

 

[Sharpys top lip]

I always say the same thimg regaurding Kenwrong...

He's a blue and i know he loves the club. And i reckon he'd sell if the right buyer came along.

But he's a G o b s h i t e.

Watch this space and all that [Poor language removed].

The sports fund.

He talks the most bollocks iv ever. He's cringe worthy!!!
