It's not a given that he'll leave, at least just yet. I think he'd want to see the stadium completed before he retires. Moshiri is disinterested with the club so it will be better if there was a clean sweep regardless of who's fault it is or who's getting blamed. The stadium is still a long way off. He's spent a lot of money for somebody presumed not interested to be fair.

Bill Kenwright will stay on in his role as Everton chairman, the Premier League club have announced. Following the departures of chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale, chief finance officer Grant Ingles and non-executive director and former striker Graeme Sharp last week, the future of long-serving chairman Kenwright had appeared in doubt. However, Everton owner Farhad Moshiri revealed on Friday morning that Kenwright had accepted his request to remain at the club and help them through a period of transition The recent board changes came in the wake of numerous supporter protests, with Kenwright, who has spent 19 years in his current role and is understood to have been planning to step down, the main target for fans’ anger. “I wanted Bill to remain as our chairman during this important period of transition for the club and I am delighted that he has accepted my request to do so,” Moshiri said in a statement on the Everton website. “Bill’s knowledge and vast experience will be crucial for us as we look to reset, deliver on external investment and position Everton for a successful future.” Everton also announced the appointment of Colin Chong as interim chief executive and director, while James Maryniak becomes interim chief finance officer. Chong is currently the chief stadium development officer and has been focusing on the move to Bramley-Moore Dock, with Maryniak the club’s director of finance. “In Colin and James, we have two experienced senior club professionals who have agreed to take on enhanced roles on an interim basis, and who we know can and will deliver immediately,” Moshiri said. As part of the changes, majority shareholder Moshiri will also join the board as a non-executive director alongside John Spellman, an experienced chartered accountant and Everton supporter. American investors MSP Capital are close to agreeing a deal to buy a stake in the club, possibly up to 25 per cent. Everton are also facing a Premier League charge for breaching profit and sustainability rules, having made cumulative losses of more than £430million over the last four seasons. www.breakingnews.ie/spo

Bill Kenwright got as far as writing his Everton resignation letter before Farhad Moshiri spent four days convincing him to change his mind, according to i News. The club released a statement on Friday (23 June) announcing the Everton owner was set to join the board along with another non-executive member and two interim figures to replace the departed Grant Ingles, Denise Barrett-Baxendale and Graeme Sharp. The announcement also kept the chairman in place, 11 days after the previous statement (12 June) that laid out the three resignations and set a 48hour limit for an update on Kenwright, with Moshiri’s basis to push to keep him apparently to do with his negotiation skills for the transfer window. The report from Mark Douglas says: “i understands that Kenwright had gone as far as writing a resignation letter, only for Moshiri to ask him to reconsider. The Everton majority shareholder then spent four days trying to persuade him to stay on in the role as chairman. “The thinking – according to those aware of the conversations – is that in another difficult summer Moshiri did not want to lose what he believes are the valuable deal-making skills of Kenwright, who is an experienced transfer market operator. “With the club almost certain to have to sell once again in this close season to fund the major surgery required on the squad, there will be a premium attached to driving a hard bargain. The £60m fee raised for Richarlison last summer came after Kenwright’s personal intervention in talks with Daniel Levy.” www.goodisonnews.com/
