Coronavirus

Did you just say hot Lesbos....?

 

The group that joined us were renowned for their happy clappy attitude . Didn’t stop them having the worst record for sacking people though !

 

Just seen a pig flying past my window

 

I did say hopefully .

 

so size matters to you then.
does not winning the league for 30 years mean that you are a big club - because with that definition even Spurs are a big club

 

so is Astro a plastic tv clapper then, from the way he posted I thought he was a proper scouser - a shell suited up **** with a dodgy moustache

 

for Ramadan do you have to stay in and not eat during daylight hours - I’m doing one of the two does that make me half Muslim mate

 

Fortunately, those who actually matter don’t share the view of our resident Kopite plassie when it comes to matchgoers.

Here’s a copy of the email I’ve just had from the CEO of Everton.



I wanted to get in touch with you again as we prepare for a very different Easter weekend for us all.

Under normal circumstances, Easter is not only a time to be together with family and friends but an opportunity to enjoy football - and Everton - as part of our football family.

Over the years Easter has produced some great memories for us.

Who of a certain age can forget Wayne Clarke’s Easter Monday hat-trick against Newcastle United which moved us closer to our ninth league title in 1987?

Or Easter Sunday only last year when the sun shone on us at our beloved Goodison Park as we recorded our biggest win over Manchester United in the Premier League era with a 4-0 victory.

Before the coronavirus crisis, we would have been looking forward to this weekend and hoping Carlo and the players could create another special Easter memory by continuing our charge towards a European place with a positive result at Tottenham Hotspur’s splendid new home.

Such thoughts have become secondary as we have all had to accept the new reality of self-isolation and social distancing to protect ourselves, our loved ones and the NHS in order to save lives.

I have been moved by the many stories I have heard during this crisis of Evertonians displaying genuine care for others less fortunate than themselves in our community.

Everyone at Everton and Everton in the Community has been humbled by the countless kind offers from our fans to support our Blue Family campaign - and for the donations we have received which have gone directly towards helping those most in need.

Hundreds of fans donated to the campaign within hours of us launching Blue Family last month and this, together with the Club’s initial pledge of more than £50,000, has allowed us to help thousands of people.

Many of those we’ve assisted have needed emergency support – literally to be able to eat and to live.

To those supporters who have contributed, I cannot thank you enough. And to those supporters currently working in the NHS and other key worker roles, I would like to praise you again - on behalf of the Board of Directors and every Evertonian - for the great work you are doing for the nation in our time of need.

Additionally, I would like to express my immeasurable gratitude for the tireless efforts of my colleagues at Everton and Everton in the Community.

Their endeavour and work is enabling us to live up to our hard-earned reputation as ‘The People’s Club’, delivering on our deeply embedded Nil Satis Nisi Optimum values during these most challenging of times.

I know you will be wondering when football will be played again – and the impact, the timing and nature of our game’s resumption might have on your match tickets or Season Tickets.

With so much still unclear, I am currently unable to provide any update on this.

But I assure you that if games do not go ahead or matches are played behind closed doors, the Club will do the right thing in terms of refunds – just as we have tried to make the right decisions by paying our directly engaged matchday and non-matchday casual staff, extending our Season Ticket renewal deadline and introducing a payment holiday option.

We will continue to supply engaging Everton content for you over the weekend through our online channels. Don't miss our latest classic game watchback and an exclusive interview with our manager Carlo Ancelotti in the coming days.

Finally, please continue to follow the Government’s advice. Only go outside for shopping or exercise – or work if you are a key worker. Keep washing your hands and remain at least two metres apart from those outside your household.

And please also remember during these long, challenging days that this will pass.

We will be back at Goodison again.

We can look forward to meeting up with old friends and hearing that siren and the famous drum roll of Z-cars before we cheer on our Everton again… I’m getting goosebumps as I write this, so cannot imagine how emotional we will all feel when that time comes around again!

May I wish you and your family a happy Easter.

Warmest wishes,

Denise

 

It's not ****ish at all to say you're financially secure. It only becomes ****ish when you try and make out that you fly your helicopter to your coastal mansion and let your supermodel wife drive there in her clapped out old Rover 25.

The business start up stuff sounds great, seems like you've got a bit of background of experience there so why not turn your hand to helping others get off the ground ? With people losing their jobs over the Covid event, I reckon there will be loads more folk trying their hand at going it alone in the future.

 

^ ^ Class - Liverpool FC could learn from their neighbours on how to do things the right way
