"Everyone knows this football club needs investment," said Everton's owner, Bill Kenwright. "If I can sell it, it will be sold tomorrow. Keith Harris, who's done most of the big deals in the last few years, is out there looking for me. We are out there with an open-door policy." Bill Kenwright 1st october 2008.

"Mr Lancaster suggested corporate finance house Seymour-Pierce have been instructed by Mr Kenwright to sell the Club. Mr Elstone pointed out that wasn't the case"
There's lies, damn lies, and Bill Kenwright.
Ha ha Dave, the clubs trying to have its cake and eat it, spoofing to get a new ground and at the same time actively looking for investment! Excellent Startegy.
Yes Keith Hariss is looking for investors, no we havnt employed Seymore-Peirce, if this is new gorund breaking info why didnt Mr Lancaster ask him staright out about all this sustantiable evidane and quoates of a minuted meeting, becuase he knows he doesnt have a leg to stand on, no way will he make comments in the public domain about private indivduals either Bill kenwright or Ketih Harris, that why he can only insinuate about Everton as a buissness and S.P. as a buissness.
Do you have a good working knowledge of the law mate? luckily i have Legal training. A public enquiry isnt a court and as such the privalage to make accusations about a person/individual without evidance isnt privalaged. Therefore all he can do is insinuate between two companies one not being employed by the other, its not really the nail in the coffin your hoping for cheif, its actually pretty positive it basicly shows he has no eivdance to link the club or SP togehter.
I would say the clubs briefs are earning their corn here, i know full well Elestone is lieing but hes lieing in the intrests of the club and it cant be proven. Excelent tactics by team Everton.
