The People’s Club in Action: Moyes Consults The 1878s

David Moyes has shown a hands-on, heartfelt appreciation for the supporters, recognising the crucial role they play in shaping the atmosphere and identity of Everton Football Club — famously known as The People’s Club. Ahead of the move to Bramley-Moore Dock, Moyes met with The 1878s Supporters Group at The Winslow Hotel to personally thank them for their efforts and to speak about continuing that spirit into the new era.

The 1878s are a fan-led, volunteer collective dedicated to making matchdays unforgettable. From choreographed flag displays to striking banners, their work adds colour, passion, and purpose to the stands. For the penultimate Goodison match against Ipswich, they pulled out all the stops — with tickertape and confetti filling the air, evoking the glory days of yesteryear, including the iconic Andy King derby.

Their work is more than visual — it lifts players, unites fans, and keeps tradition alive. Moyes’ meeting with them reflects the deep bond between club and community, and a shared commitment to carrying Everton’s soul into its next chapter.
