So I was just wondering about someone like Chris Yarran and before him to someone like Reece Mckenzie. I am not going to sit here and pretend to be at all knowledgeable about mental health but is there something that we can do as fans, more than simply buying a membership and turning up on game day?
Could we do something like get all of our 70,000 members to complete an online survey for a player like Yaz. Could be 3 questions; What do you like about his game, what you are looking forward to having him in the team and how much you appreciate him putting in the effort each day. And then when he walks into the club each day he can have a text message or card or anything just to remind him that people care. It could be quite uplifting. (assuming that the club medical and psychology team approve that it won't be counter productive for this particular player of course)
I don't know if it's appropriate at all, whether it would have any impact but wouldn't it be great to be able to provide our collective support on just the regular days?
Anyone have any other ideas of how to collectively make our club stronger other than the more traditional methods?
