It was good. It would be bad for him to be on the show a while ago when he is a lovely fellow, he has a backbone of hisวย that's very enthusiastic. That's really good. There's a new chair as well. It was voted not to be a new chair so almost like a fresh form y Ffraction of it is Fresh Is Me with the new people as well. Yeah, that's definitely right. Jazz sort of, there was a couple of areas he said to the forum that he wanted us to focus on, with him as chair in terms of maybe doing a little bit more around some of the communications and focus on engagement. So he sort of gave us a good message there but there's a really nice blend of some people that have been on the forum for a bit longer, Jazz included, Nick Mernick and also Lisa Vaughan. Felly they've been in and around so know how it works, the wise hands if you like, and then the newbies. I think it's good. What I saw was, and I've seen since, 15 Evertonians that are a dead passionate and have got some forthright opinions on a lot of issues and are prepared to take that on. Ond ydych chi'n gweithio i chi ni, a'r ganwn amheri hyn yn ei ddiseg y gwaith, yna'r gweithio i chi arlawn cwrs oherwydd mae'n gynnwys ar ôl ar gwaith nefanydd. Ond mae'n hollion mwynch cydworkio hynny ddweud, mae hi'n meddwl i gwaith yn roedden nhw, felly rhai rei hyn yn teimlo yn ddechrau, ac yn cyfio i gweithio i'r gwaith ayoddiad, inside call-out. So, essentially, they're all doing what you do, which is dialing, so won't feel like you're doing you're doing anything different really, will it? Becws obviously everybody's been up to now, in the same bowl like you said. I think in terms of the forum, it probably needed freshening up, I think that's a fair assumption. I think from a fan's perspective looking at it outside of the forum, because obviously we don't know what goes on there. Wy celebrities on there so I think just as a neutral person looking. I think it's really important that That is almost fed back to the fans a little bit more I think rather than not saying anyone was being seated put it is just don't think it was anything that was getting out was being discussed really so I think Doing things like this, certainly. I think it's interesting to find out what actually goes on so I got on in your face when you Cydym ni fyddwch i'r llun? Mae'r llun o'r blaen o'r llun, gyda'n hynny'n hynny, bod jaz wedi bod yn rhoi cyntaf a'r cyfnodd o'r rhannu i gyd yn ymwneud ac yn ymwneud o'r cyfnodd ar dod yn y cyfnodd yn ymwneud. Fe'r llun o'r cyfnodd yn ymwneud, ac mae'r llun yn ymwneud am y cyfnodd, ac mae'r llun o'r cyfnodd yn ymwneud, fe yna'r cyfnodd. Mae'n ôl i'r tym ni'n cael eu gwybodol. realized that the first one was a little bit of an introduction to the forum itself, the members and how it works, so I think that's recognized, that's something that we can continue to do more on, so I think that's good. Some of the issues that we talked about in the first meeting, there were legacy issues from the previous term, but, we had a healthy exchange around the end of terms, term, end of season Dickies Awards a'r ysgrifennu yna, gallwn i'n gwybod, yn ymlaen i gyd yn dda, i ddim yn eu cael ei wahanol o'r cymdeithas ar hyn o'r parodau sydd. A'r ysgrifennu, i'n ddweud o'r reidiau yn wneud y gweithgredig o'r gwybodaeth. So rwy'n ddod yn dechrau'r gwybodaeth o'r rheaidiannol a'r ddysgu'r gweithgredig o'r gweithgredig o'r ddysgu. So, the people have been working on it, and then from our perspective Jo and I were quite keen to get out the bloc, so when we were doing the election campaign we heard a lot about how some of the international fans in particular felt they didn't necessarily have a consistent voice at least. arall, so we proposed, in that meeting then, to do a survey of the international fans, so for the first time. So, yeah, we wanted to get that moving pretty quickly, so yeah, that was a little bit about the first one. Excellent, we've seen that, to say the information about the survey come out, I think it's massively important because obviously, you know, I'm worth something like three or four miles from Guddarsson Park and that's great but the sav Șonion is all over the Wales, so Ac mae'n gwych yn wneud yn dda'r holl yn ymdweud yn ymddangos.

Because it's outside of the UK it is quite a big place. Ya a fawr cyffredig. Yn gyfyrdd. So Joe's going to, Joe's the lead for and the contact for the overseas blues in Europe. OK, yeah. So that's, you know, people then know, you know, who they can go to and where they want to raise things. And I'll be the same. I'll do the same job but for North America and then, you know, the rest of the world. So, you know, again, hopefully people now have got a, you know, a point of contact that they can go to. And that's sort of working well and, you know, we've sort of, you know, divided and things up there that way to, you know, to keep that moving forward. So that was one of the things we just wanted to sort of update people on that. I mean, other things that we've done as well, you know, I think the club's been, you know, has done a lot to sort of engage with the fan base during this period. Yeah, you know, through the blue family and communications from the CEO and stuff. So, you know, we were also sort of working with the club for them to do that with some of the international supporters club. So, you know, the chief executive wrote to all of the supporters clubs as well as the UK based and, you know, those that are based under the pool. So, again, you know, that was that was good. There was something about the blue family campaign. Maybe we can come on to in a bit, as well, because we've also, Joe and I have also been working about extending that into the US as well. So, you know, we can maybe touch on that in a minute. So from an international base, that was, you know, that was what we talked about. And again, just to be clear, you know, you know, sharing the information around what we talk about in these meetings is part of what we want to do. So, you know, you know, the details in the minutes of what's discussed there, you know, are published on the fans forum website so everyone can access those. And, you know, we've been talking and thinking about, you know, there are different ways in which we can maybe be a bit more proactive and get that out. And, you know, this partly this is what we're doing now, but also through the podcast. So, you know, people can go and see that. It did actually also coincide with one of the big Premier League meetings as well around Project We Start. So it was a few days, you know, a few days before that. So again, we took the opportunity there to give the feedback that we'd seen observed and also had, you know, from some of the, you know, some of the fan base, some of the polls around, you know, what was the centre feeling around Project We Start. So, you know, we gave that perspective and fed that into the club. And it was largely based on, you know, the safety concerns, you know, not just the players, but, you know, the support staff, the management staff, the emergency services, the implications of players having access to PPE equipment when actually, you know, there appears to be a sort of, you know, potential shortage of that for the responders. So, you know, we were able to sort of, you know, feed that into the club. And they told us that, you know, that went to, you know, senior levels within the club who were going to be at the meeting. And that would be part of the representation they made. So, you know, there was a range of issues, but it was a good opportunity for us to feed in and the, you know, the views that we'd heard from the Everton fans. Yeah, I mean, obviously we've got Germany restarting this weekend and the UK apparently four weeks behind or whatever. We're looking at a start date anywhere between June 12th and June 19th at the moment, that seems to be the date. It's a difficult one, isn't it? Obviously, you know, the thing, the first and foremost, is the health and safety issue. That's the massive thing. But it is going to come back. Let's not, you know, in my opinion, I think, I think we've seen enough and heard enough that the money it's dictates whether it comes back. And I think there's too much money, quite simply for it not to come back for these nine games, rightly or wrongly. What you not so much the, the, the no, you know, the behind closed doors. That's a, that's a given at the minute. No one would want to go on and wouldn't be allowed to go and sit in a football stadium. But was anything discussed? I think it's probably too early, really for this discussion to have. But people are asking us, you know, a trophy team, what's happening with this and what's happening with that? I haven't got a clue. I'm the season ticket holders like everyone else. So we're just, we're waiting to see what, you know, what's happening. But there's a very real possibility now, isn't it that? We're not going to be back in Gwldersham Park potentially not at all next season. I know they're saying January it looks like, but that's in the winter. And, you know, at the minute, predictions are this might have spiked again in the winter. We don't know it might not. You know, we're just following information. So, I mean, was there any kind of discussion around the possibility of no supporters at Gwldersham Park for the whole of next season? Or was it just too early when you had your meeting that I hadn't really thought about? It was a different stage of sort of where we were in the, you know, on the Christendom and there had been some debates at the time, sort of, you know, sort of outside of the forum, just generally sort of in the media on social media around, you know, is football the same without, you know, having, you know, fans in the stadium. So, I mean, I think some of those things have been shared with, you know, the club. But I think, you know, what you just said there, it just shows the level of uncertainty around, you know, what is going to happen, what isn't going to happen, the different interests that are involved. You know, you've mentioned the financial interests there from, you know, the Premier League and other parts. I mean, you know, in the last sort of two weeks, I've seen different perspectives from players and from the leading medics within the clubs, from the clubs themselves. So, you know, I think, you know, your analysis around it looks as though it's coming back and obviously other leagues are doing that. You know, it looks as though, you know, that that's happening. But there seems to be that many unknowns around how it can work. Will it work? Will it be the same that I think that, you know, I'll be honest with you, I'm not sure anybody knows right now. No, no. I mean, Germany will very much be the road map for the moment. They'll deal luckily. We've got four and five weeks to look at it. If it's going OK in Germany, then it'll be a case of rinse and repeat here. And rightly or wrongly, they will have access to testing and stuff that has come from a private firm has been bought in and they'll have the temperature taken. We're seeing lots and lots of procedures having to be in place for football to return. So it's going to be it's going to be a very, very. It's going to watch it. It's a watch waiting to see really, isn't it? Let's be honest about it as we move forward. But I think I think you'll have some some points that future meetings will regard to what's happening with people who've already paid for the season tickets. What's happening with season ticket money? What's happening with next season? You know, people have already started to pay direct debit for next season. So what happens with that money if we're not allowed in stadiums? And I'm sure these will all be points that the fans for them will have to deal with because it's the voice of the fans. Isn't it at the end of the day with the club? So, you know, definitely. And that is one of the issues that, you know, that we have been, you know, we've been, we've been talking to the club about. So earlier on again in the sort of pandemic, you know, we were actively talking to them around what they do on sort of season ticket renewal deadlines and what I view. And obviously, you know, the club decided to, you know, to push that out, you know, we were, you know, we were actively talking to them about sort of, you know, the merits of that, you know, even last week we did a poll around, you know, what's the preferences of fans that have got season tickets? You know, should there be a refund? Would they want to donate any refund to it in the community? For example, you know, so we, you know, we pull that with the fans last week. And we've actually gone back now with sort of four options, you know, to the club to say, look, this is what we've heard. So, you know, four areas that you might want to, you know, that you might want to think of, you know, whether there should be a direct refund, whether you want to split or whether you want to have a credit arrangement so you can use it for next season. Exactly. Or if you want to split the money between, you know, a refund and some to EITC. So again, you know, that's how we've reached out to the fan base to get their views on that. So, you know, again, we've fed that back into the club. Yeah, I mean, it is. We're obviously within a situation at the moment, unprecedented times as we keep hearing, and it is everyone's kind of feeling the way around this, because it's we've never seen anything of the like in our lifetime. And hopefully it'll never be seen again, you know, something like this. So it's a challenge, isn't it, that has thrown itself up, you know, and one that as a new member of the Fans Forum, you're possibly way unexpected to be, you know, as involved in it all. Or maybe you were at the time because you knew that what was happening. But it is, you know, you could have been on the Fans Forum a different year and none of this would have ever been a would have ever been discussed. But look, you know, but I think it's good, and I think it's, you know, it's a good way for us to engage on issues like this. I mean, you know, and as I said, there's been no more test and no more test and time from this. And, you know, one of the things that I've been dead impressed with as well is how Evitonians have rallied throughout this process around each other. So, you know, we talked a little bit before about, you know, how the club had done some through Blue Family and in the community and stuff. But, you know, even on social media and other forums, the way in which, you know, I've seen Evitonians rally round businesses that have gone, you know, that are struggling at the moment. If I look at, you know, if I look at the US, for example, you know, our routine is based around us all meeting at the pub and watching, you know, watching the game. Now, some of those pubs are going through, you know, real difficulty. You know, and they're, you know, they're struggling to survive. You know, and I've seen, you know, some of the US clubs in particular, sort of, you know, do auctions and raffles to raise money for the staff there to sort of try and, you know, help a little bit. Yeah, I mean, it's great to see the connection between, you know, that's the good thing. And I hope that out of all of this, I hope that this is what people take out of it going forward. Not just Evitonians, you know, people in general, because there has been a bit more niceness, I think, amongst people of, of like coming together and like doing a little bit more for each other. And we've seen a lot of, I mean, you've seen it within your own neighbourhood and people are, you know, do you need anything from the shop and things like that? And I hope that that extends past this. I hope we don't all go back to just being worried about ourselves and everyone else can go to hell kind of thing, you know, as long as we are. All right, I hope there's a little bit more empathy for everybody, but this is something that I think the club have done really well within this pedsister, you know, as a phone call from Moise King, you know, she's in remission from from Kansas, up the club had set that up and we've seen big dunk and his messages to people, which has been fantastic as well. I've seen Carlo and Cialotti having a phone call. So the club have done, I think they've done that brilliantly really with Eviton in the community, the blue family thing. And then I've seen some stuff that actually happened in America with phone calls. And that's so, you know, obviously you live out there and you're on the fans forum. Did the fans forum have any kind of input into the club reaching out part of the blue family to those international fans as well? Or was that just something the club did? Yeah, no, we did. We did have a role in that. You know, I think you're right. It's been great to see sort of how people are connecting throughout all this. And yeah, we had so we had a couple of conversations, you know, the club sort of spoke to us about this and whether it's possible. And actually, you know, we saw that as a pretty good sign and a good signal that actually, you know, that brought the recognition of sort of fans abroad was happening within the club. So I think that's a good sign and think something that we can definitely, definitely build on. But, you know, it's had the same impact, I think that, you know, you talked about sort of the Pets's stuff, you know, and other people, you know, the impact that's had here, you know, with people. But, you know, so there's been calls to sort of front line responders, you know, paramedics, firefighters and there was a case of James Rodgers in New York who he had to postpone his dad's funeral because of the pandemic. So he's out in New York was trying to get back. They had to move it back, you know, when he got he got a phone call from Graham Sharp, turns out his dad was a massive fan of Graham Sharp. So, you know, the impact that that can have and how it then builds that connection, I think, to the club is, you know, is is absolutely massive. So, you know, that's been really good. So, yeah. And, you know, to be able to sort of play a part in that is great as well. And actually, the other thing is, is that, you know, builds the connection that we're having with the supporters club. So, you know, the role that they played in helping us, you know, maybe where, how to, you know, we'd love a call was also really important. So, so, yeah, it gives us something to build on, Bas. So, you know, we want to, you know, we want to keep that, that sort of spirit is, is, as you say, and I've started to pull together, you know, little WhatsApp groups of the supporters club, please, so that we can sort of bounce ideas and, you know, complain and moan, because we have it's only in the end of the day, you know, but also just, you know, keep that sort of connection and build momentum going because that's that's going to be so important. Yeah, I mean, it's fantastic. And it does have, you write it, it has a far reaching thing. It touches people, you know, and especially the club making plays, making phone calls to people, you know, in like places like the United States and I mean, where it gets around and they're impressed with that. And then other people jump on it as well then and go, you know, that's a club that cares about the fans and, you know, and it is. It's a time when we all, we all should be doing a little bit more for each other anyway. So it's nice that the club are reaching out for it to do that. Well, listen, before, before I let you go and carry on with your work and day because I know you're still working there. It's getting on to your time for me now, but, you know, you've still got hours left. Look at your, well, you were in bed, I was working. So, you know, there you go. I want to come back to the, the survey, really, because I think just the conversation we've had, things are going off in my head all the time when we're talking about that and, you know, the fans survey is a great way for international fans to connect. But you still got time to fill that in, haven't you? Because is it next week or something that will close us? So, I mean, what would you say to international supporters watching this now? Well, look, first of all, we're listening, you know, the years are open. We want to know what you think. We want to know what you think to work, what you think works. We want to know, more importantly, what you think doesn't work so that we can, you know, we can take that on. So the survey is going to give us. It's really going to help us, you know, sort of understand that in a little bit more detail. So you're right, it runs until it's going to be open until next, next Wednesday, so the 20th of May. What a day that was, that's an anniversary of 25 years since we won the FA Cup that day as well. So there you go. So there's no excuse, no excuse to not get it done by then. So, yeah, you know, it's available through the supporters clubs. It's sort of on sort of all the Facebook sites. You can DM the fans forum. If you're not a member of a club, DM us. We can send a link to you if that's your preferred way. All our contact details are there. So, yeah, look, we want to hear from as many as many blues overseas, you know, that we can the response so far has been great. But we know we want, as I say, we want more and more. Yes, I mean, we want every, I guess we want every Evertonian who is an international fan now for whatever reason, whether the direct pats, whether work is taking them somewhere else or whatever, or whether they've just decided evidence their club to fill that in. Don't you? Because you want, I guess you want as many views as possible because then you sample size grows and you've got a handle on. You've got a handle on then what the real, what the mean view is having of those supporters. So definitely doesn't take long. It doesn't take long. And also you can you can win a signed DCL shirt as well. So there's another little incentive for people there. And if people don't want to do the survey or whatever, then, you know, get in touch with us if they want to drop me an email, Tony. Samson and fansforum.com, Joe. O'Reilly, same, same, same address, you know, get in touch. We want it. We want to hear from as many people as possible. So, you know, as I say, our ears are open, the doors are open and we want to, we want to act on what we hear. Is that just with anything? So is that with not, not necessarily, I'm not saying they should come to you with a list as long as that arm of things. But is that just with any any little suggestion or anything like that? You can just email you in and you can have a little chat maybe over email about where it goes in there. Yeah, absolutely. You know, there's no there's no sort of baddie there. I mean, there's some things, obviously, which are sort of direct club issues. You know, I'll give you an example. Somebody wants to start up a supporters club. You know, we can give advice on how it's work, but actually it's the club that will help them do that. So what we can do if it isn't something for us to take on, you know, we're more than happy to pass that on and have been bought again. Anything else that people have got if you want or a comment or an idea, then feel free to get in touch. Superb, mate. Superb. Anything else before I let you go? Is there anything I haven't yet that you're, you know, anything coming to mind from a meeting or anything that I haven't asked you that you think is important or of me covered it all for now? No, no, I think luck has been great. It's been nice to thanks for thanks for letting us come back on again. And maybe we can keep you posted on what we hear back from the survey and sort of what we're going to do next. Yeah, definitely. Listen, we make this a regular thing so that if people can't be bothered going on and reading all the minutes, then at least we get, you know, we can get an update when you're on. You know, you give us the the meat off the bones, so to speak, is the meat on the bones when you come on and let us know what's happening. Obviously people can listen to the podcast as well, which I think is really important if you're going to be discussing what was in meetings and stuff. I think that's a good way for people to just to whack it on while they're out for a walk or whatever. And what's getting discussed by the fans forum other than that, like I said, you can get the information by watching these videos with you, updating us, which is always nice. So very good. Right. I'm going to let you go and get on with your work because I'm going to do me daily exercise before I have my taste. So there you go. Listen, Tony, look after yourself. Mate, stay safe and no doubt we will speak very soon. And you can give us the update on the survey and any of the other stuff that the fans forum are discussing. But lovely to chat to you, mate. Take care. You too. Stay safe, mate. Cheers, Tom. So a big thanks there to Tony Samson for coming on chatting to us all away from Chicago.
