Former players idea

Post by GrassrootsMatt » Sun May 03, 2020 8:15 am

Just been thinking about ways of passing the time during this period of uncertainty around the world.

It's basically coming off the top of my head, so even if it was well received it would probably need some tweaking.

Would it not be possible to do something like a 'Blast from the Past' series? We could get the fans to put some questions to a former player? Not sure could / would do it? Maybe over Zoom or something like that?

Is this something anyone would even be interested in?

Anyone got any ideas as to how it could work? Would it even need to be a video interview anyway?

Maybe something like Sports Life Stories but obviously more like Quakers Life Stories?

Was in contact with Ray Simpson this morning, he was already planning something like this and is putting something together.

Have a try of this for a Kev Smith interview.

That's a boss interview! I listened to it on holiday in a remote part of Zante......those were the days.

Perhaps raise a bit of cash by linking the question you want asked to the purchase of a 50/50 ticket?
