The list of his failures is far bigger than his successes. I appreciate him stepping in when Johnson had to go but he was here far longer than he should have been (a bit like Moyes, he got comfortable). I believe him when he said he was only stepping in short-term but when he got that position of owning the club he supports he just couldn't let it go and clung on. I believe that's why (or at least part of the reason) he pushed so hard for Kirkby and condoned all the lies told around that debacle (Goodison still getting a safety certificate I see!). He thought if he could get us to a new stadium he could hold on for a bit longer again. Lets not even go near the shit show of King's Dock because that one still hurts me (ring-fenced!).

Hafnia Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 As much as I try I can't hate kenwright.... He does a great job of acting up his love of the club and it's infectious. That said, he has presided over a disgraceful episode of decisions, recruited in people to cover his arse and basically caused a culture within the club that has seen us fall away. He just disappoints me immensely. StevO and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisk Posted September 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 I can't slag him off - Not that we will know, but who else was waiting in the wings to pick up the club from Johnson. Kenwright was probably not the right man to (or have the right skill set) pick this up but I dont recall any other saviours from these days. Kenwright may have been too much of a fan of the club, but did what he could within his means - the club missed the boat of investment pre-Premier League and was always on catch-up. The European ban on English clubs had a massive impact on the advancement and money of our club in the late 80s. markjazzbassist and pete0 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all Kenwright, I know. And everyone was happy he took the club from Johnson. That’s never been the issue. It’s after about five years, and many fiascos and ridiculous incidents around selling the club and failures when it came to stadium plans.

Popular Post StevO Posted September 30, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Will we end up with a statue of Carlo outside BMD? I saw a tweet from Michael Ball earlier saying he felt calm watching us, I can’t remember ever being this calm watching us. It just seems like we are in control all of the time. But the players seem calm too, just like they know there will be more goals. It’s so much more enjoyable. If we beat Brighton at the weekend I’m not sure I’ll be able to wait two weeks to see us play again.
