Mr. Kenwright's woes



Mr. William Kenwright CBE reprises the late Mr. Edward Woodward OBE's "Equalizer" character in preparation for a return meeting with "The Blue Union"

Apropos: my post of the 17th, ult, in relation to the travails of The Everton Football Club Company Limited in general and Mr. William Kenwright CBE in particular.

Mr. William Kenwright CBE has, it seems, threatened the gentlemen of "The Blue Union" supporters coalition with legal reprisals; not because of inaccuracies in their transcript, not because he feels that he has been misrepresented in any way, but because he insists that there was a "gentleman's agreement" not to publish any reports of their meeting (which appears to be contradicted by his asking them to write certain things down on occasions within their meeting, but I suppose that "will out" in court, as it were).

His ranting, disjointed performance has been compared unfavourably to that of Mr. Jerry "The Saint" St. Clair "gangsta trippin' ", which certainly made me laugh, I have to say. However, I was also reminded of a certain "internet meme" which has gone through many incarnations, some good and some atrocious. 

If one should permit me a little indulgence... here is my impression of how that meeting played itself out, ninety percent of which comprises of direct quotations from their meeting or documented fact surrounding Mr. William Kenwright CBE's tenure at the helm of The Everton Football Club Company Limited.

 

Do others feel that this is the gift which just keeps on giving?
