Myra Hawtree 124 Posted March 25, 2020 Just had a call from Timm Klose checking if I am OK and need anything! What a nice surprise and has set me up for the day. Probably got my number as one of the older members of Extra Time group. OTBC! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,746 Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) The club players have been ringing OAP season ticket holders for the last couple of days. Seen posts on social media about Todd Cantwell, Grant Hanley and Michael McGovern involved. Edited March 25, 2020 by TIL 1010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mello Yello 2,293 Posted March 25, 2020 Nice gesture and really good to hear.....Although I also hope these caring players had their phones on speaker mode and were performing squats, burpees, star jumps, press ups and shuttle runs, whilst they're verbally delivering goodwill and morale boosting telephone messages to those NCFC ST OAP supporters.....I also hope that the OAP support were doing likewise and reciprocating by also performing those exercises whilst they're receiving and replying to those player goodwill phone chats..... Can't be seen/heard to be getting sloppy and idle an' totally outta shape.....Fitness in body is fitness in mind.....Whether pro-Player or a retired OAP..... "Now down for ten, and then up and sprint to the garden fence Grandad and see if you can better Nana's personal best...AAAND GO!....Oh, and pick your false teeth up Grandad....or the dog will have 'em......

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,820 Posted March 25, 2020 If a few of the fans request medicine being picked up or a supermarket run, would the players actually do it? It would be great to see Emi Buendia calling round to some pensioner's house with a packet of blood pressure pills and a fish supper. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,746 Posted March 25, 2020 I wonder if the players wives and girlfriends are involved ? Waits.................................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,141 Posted March 25, 2020 I can't be arsed to check if it's true, but I saw somewhere that this is a PL initiative, it's not just our club. Doesn't make it any the less thoughtful, but let's not get too evangelical about how saintly NCFC is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
