ED 25. I know you are a big supporter of Bill's, I'm not, but would except that in the Peter Jonhson situation, he was both important in stopping the rot, and took a major gamble with his own finances.
However, that was now long ago and his long term management has been woful. I Won't go though his record point by point, but for the perposes of illistration, remember being told to go to the club shop and pick out my seat for the albert dock site!
With the Moyes situation, and now with Martinez, the word is loyalty, I'm of the firm view that this just a cover for arrogance, ie i'm right and if you don't like it, well that's your problem.
I know he is unwell, and I am not trying to kick a man when he is down, but it realy is time bill took up an honoury roll, and left the managemet to the new majoriy owner.
If one of his westend shows had been hammered by the critics, as our club has been, Bill would have closed the show in a week.

{Ed025's Note - i get your point JCW and there is certainly some validity in it, the faith i have in bill is not blind faith though and i do just like you think its time for him to step aside and for farhad to take over, an ambassadorial role would be perfect for him in my eyes and it would take the pressure off him and hopefully aid his recovery, my admiration for the guy comes from the loyalty and commitment he has shown this club and the way he steered us through the dark times when it could have really gone pear shaped, and thats why i stick up for him when so called supporters hail abuse at him and know nothing about the chances he took to keep us afloat, for me its about respect as much as anything mate..

Bill put everything he had into the club to save it from extinction and he could lost it all.

He wasn't a huge millionaire and there wasn't the money there is now.

I don't think one person on here can say they have done more than that to save the club.

He has waited for the right investment so that we don't end up like Leeds or Portsmouth and hopefully we are about to have our chance.

Show some respect to the man who has risked it all so you can go watch a team play football on a Saturday afternoon.

{Ed002's Note - Right on.}

Watch football on a Saturday or any other day, PREFERABLY in the top flight other wise I may as well stay on the Wirral and watch Tranmere on Saturdays.

Love it Ed025, 'loyalty and commitment' sums Bill up for me. Appreciate everything he has done. Especially recently. Was humble enough to admit that someone else was more capable than himself to take the club forward from where it is now.

I will always have admiration for BK. Not only as a brilliant chairman but also as a human being. Imho always had the clubs best interest at heart. I don't care what anyone else says about him. That's my own view, not everyone's but certainly is mine.

{Ed025's Note - i concur mate..

I agree Ed025
I think of Leeds and now Villa.
Heaven forbid.
I think the world of BK because he's a blue for one and he has always had the best interest of the club at heart, of that there can be no doubt.

{Ed025's Note - no doubt at all frank..

Thankfully Jawan Bill is not that fickle and can safely say he would watch us in any league just like me.

However, because of him you don't have to worry about going to see another Peter Johnson catastrophe that is Tranmere.

Boom. Drops the mic and leaves the room.

{Ed025's Note - love it john..
