Despite being with the enemy (so to speak), Everton chairman Bill Kenwright gave a really rather fantastic speech at yesterday’s Hillsborough Memorial at Anfield, in which he harked back to the days he used to spend in The Kop as a kid and then strummed arpeggios on everybody’s heartstrings by thanking the mums of Liverpool and of The 96 for never giving up in their relentless quest for justice…

Told you it was brilliant.

    He may not have the money we’d like but I’m extremely proud to have a Bill Kenwright as our chairman. A proper fan and he represented the club in the best possible way yesterday. I think his speech is everything us Blues would want to say to our neighbours.

    JFT96, you will never be forgotten!

    Excellent speech. Not at all surprising from a man representing Everton, a club that has consistently displayed class and empathy for as long as i can remember and although not always said aloud probably the 2nd club of alot of true fans of LFC.

    Im an Arsenal fan but Everton have always been the other team i like to see do well. Everything about them is run the way all football teams should be. Goodison is a proper football stadium and Kenwright is by far the most down to earth chairman in the league. Every season they have one of the lowest budgets and smallest squads but always do themselves proud.

    That being said tonight I hope you get stuffed :P

    @AjaxMayne
    “Justice for the 96” I think.
