The Everton Board Thread (Inc. Bill Kenwright / Blue Union)

[Chang Elephant]

Right, that's it for defending Kenwright from me.

He's a financial illiterate, liar, fantasist, egotist, deranged liability.

Some may think that's going too far in his defence but this forum needs some balance.

Well done to the lads who did the interview, it's a real eye opener for those who've been in a coma for 10 years as to the calibre of BK. Something to laugh about in years to come as we slide down the leagues.

Ok, googled a little bit

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/philmcnulty/2011/08/bank_squeezes_blue_half_of_mer.html

think it refers to the Blue Union meeting so close this thread and go to that thread, here

That points to a decreasing share value for Messers Kenwright, Woods and Earl ...

 

[Matt Damon]

And, in Everton's case, they have not unearthed a single serious suitor despite years of searching and the involvement, according to Kenwright, of brokers Keith Harris, Amanda Staveley, agent Leon Angel and several banks.

Great bit of SPIN there.

"Serious".

Is that like Elstone's "no ones interested" to "they're not beating down our doors".


WHAT CONSTITUTES - "SERIOUS"?

Who defines "Serious"?

Not being "Serious" means - not offering a level that Messers Kenwright, Woods and Earl ... want?

Because we've said they've overvalued to about £40million going on what Keith Harris was quoted as saying the asking price is.


Is that what constitutes a serious v non-serious offer?


Cut the spin out Mcnulty. Please.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Well done Kenwrong and co. Alienate the fanbase for telling the truth

McNulty:
"Kenwright and Everton were immediately forced to embark on a damage limitation exercise and the affair may not yet be at a close as I understand the club is considering legal action on the basis they was that the meeting would be confidential without any recordings taking place."


E4C website:
"The Chairman was aware that information from the meeting would be supplied to supporters. The only confidentiality exercised surrounds matters concerning the chairman’s private and family life, which he is clearly entitled to expect and we are equally happy to respect. The normal conversation expected between any football supporters has also been omitted. All three representatives concur that the following is a true and accurate report of what was discussed."

I'll give more credence to a supporter's claim over a man who's been economic with the truth on many, many occasions.

 

[Phenom]

Just read the whole interview, im seriously worried now.

 

[TheNinja]

At one point I swear I read that Bill asked his secretary to get Keith Harris on the phone, but nothing more was mentioned.

More likely to get hold of Orville....

That moment in the transcript was almost comical....if any of this can be found funny

He means the buyers that run away when they ask to see the money...

And you still assume Woods and Earl want/have to sell?

No. He doesn't.

He means those simply not willing to meet their asking price.

i.e. those who won't meet that are considered "Not serious".


Remember Messer's Hicks and Gillette. Their asking price. Etc.

 

[somuchfun]

Oh FFS what is it with these 'supporter groups' and their extreme stupidity. Would be nice that there'd be some credible actions taken. So now Kenwright is painted as a slightly deranged person in private atleast. But I don't see how that'd force his hand, and now the possible discussion route seems to be closed. Well done lids, well done. *

[Matt Damon]

To be fair. This will just be used as an excuse now for the shutters to go up.

No more interviews. No more talking. No more nothing.


Obvious.

 

[Neiler]

So lets just clarify, Bill Kenwright is considering legal action for defamation against the blue union.

*Whistles.

 

[kenada_blue]

No. He doesn't.

Interpretation though...

You say its people not meeting the asking price....I see it as -

And Everton? "Ah," says Harris, with a sigh. "There the would-be buyers, both of them British, turned out to be very flaky. When they had to show up with the money, they disappeared. They led everybody a merry dance."

Its like a soap opera this. :huh:

I dont want to hear it, tbh. It's all shite anyway. Look at what he came out with today concerning looking 24/7 for 'acceptable' bids. Do you want that ad nauseum until he frigs off? No, neither do I. The Blue Union stuff just proved once and for all that the feller is a total fantasist and we're ****ed under his and his mates control.

Job done.
