Everton Thread - 2022/23

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Everton didn't endear themselves to any City fans over the Lescott affair, but aside from that I have no issue with them. Great old club, good, passionate support - what's not to like?

Stop it. You've made me depressed just thinking about him.

Their use of Stanley craft blades (in the past granted, but permanent reminders on any given concourse)

We seemed to get a few of their cast-offs who were well past their best :-

Neil "Dissa" Pointon
John Gidman
Adrian Heath
Peter Reid

Things have changed since I was a steward there back in 2012-2016 then. They were advertising half season tickets that were still available every matchday.

To be fair, their away following has been fantastic numbers-wise for many years going back long before then. They're not necessarily the loudest away fans as like us, they have a significant older demographic in their fanbase who have been attending away games for years (not that I'm saying older fans don't sing of course - I'm 52 and I do!) but you can't fault their numbers.

Yeah, I remember all those players who were well past their best but still were an upgrade on anything we had.

I enjoyed their fans sharing their lighters and coins with us fans below them in the LC semi a few years back. Scouse pricks.

Am of that demographic re age and would say over the decades I see the same faces attending games- especially away games. I think re noise we are a more studious fanbase re the game and believe singing and flags is for kopites , sometimes to our detriment. Numbers wise I would say we rarely don't sell out away from home.
Outside London clubs including United we used to have the biggest supporters club in the South. A question I get asked often is " how come you support Everton coming from Liverpool " which always baffles me.

You're assuming the average person actually knows where Everton is.

Although I'm sure I'm not alone with similar things being said to me when we were 'shit'. People can't get their heads around why everyone isn't a rag/dip fan.
