The Jigsaw

Comments (3)

I have absolutely no insider information and, unlike more optiistic commentators on this site, I have no idea which players DM will bring in eventually.

I do, however, have the natural curiosity of anyone faced with a puzzle. There are several pieces to the jigsaw ... perhaps one of you can fit them together:

  • There is a successful call for an EGM.
  • Moyes mentions his contract positively for the first time in a number of weeks.
  • There is delay after delay with the Kirkby DrearyDrome fiasco.
  • Debt grows, merchandise isn't easily available.
  • The Chairman of the company doesn't know what's going on.
  • The CEO resigns suddenly at the least appropriate point in the year.
  • The club issues a statement so terse and lacking in thanks that it amounts to an insult.
      For what it's worth, I believe that there has been a power struggle between Moyes and Wyness over cash and that Wynness has been more concerned to divert any available funds to DK (ooh! didn't he have a financial interest in that one?). Kenwright, knowing what would happen if Moyes walked, has backed Moyes with a promise of funds and Wynness, seeing his dream of the Knowsley biscuit tin under threat from shareholders etc has decided to run before he gets kicked.

      Pure conjecture. Really interested to hear other opinions. Perhaps Kenwright would like to offer a couple of words...

Mike - I totally agree , in fact I was thinking just yetserday of writing an article highlighting that Wyeness is in a no win situation - there is obviously a shortage of funds and it was becoming a Moyes vs Wyeness contest who got them - the looser would resign - and hey presto Bill backed David .

The £30m question - has Bill actually got the money - I suspect if not forthcoming in the next 3-4 weeks then David will leave sometime during the season.

Rumours are beginning to surface that another reason Keith Wyness has gone is that there is no cash for any transfers or for our share of the new stadium cost and in fact we will struggle to keep the books balanced. Kenwright knows he needs to sell up this summer or the club will face administration.
