If I'm a black man in an Everton shirt am I pretty much guaranteed to get my head kicked in? Do the majority of Hajduk fans stroll around with their knuckles dragging along 2 feet behind them?
Stick with the tourists. There's plenty.

You wont get whacked but expect some football banter, balkan style.

The whole city will be buzzing on match day.
 
Look... tourism is all we have right now. If racism and similar problems are widespread, that really wouldn't work for us.

No, it too hot to stroll around. Most of them are sleeping at home or on the beach.

Does that consist of monkey chants? Because that's not 'banter' in my eyes.

I was at the England U21 game when we played Serbia and it sounds to me like this might be a repeat of the intolerant behaviour experienced there.
 

If you're black you'll get a few looks more than the whites but that's because we rarely see black poeple. But even that's been changing.

If you're a pasty Brit, you'll be fine. If you're an Everton fan, blend in with the tourists and stick to touristy parts - pretty much everywhere.

You will feel intimidated at the grounds tho. Bring a diaper.
Hi hun see my question above, where's a good place to party after the game for guys who like guys?

I was having a bit of a laugh and joke on twitter with a couple of Hajduk fans earlier and asked for directions around the ground, one of them thought it was funny to respond with this, so you can see why I'm a bit concerned.

Greetings Evertonians. I was hoping to read more about football side of the tie than touristic but will try to answer as much as I can while posting a few questions myself.

Any casual Everton fan going in the city on the match day (or day before) in Everton shirt should be in a company of some local people or have some kind of visible Hajduk insignia. Otherwise, you are a legit target for Torcida. Especially if you are loud and drinking in bars. In this case you come along as someone looking for a fight.

Being black shouldn't be a problem if you don't go around with Everton flags.
Being black, gay, with everton shirt and having a serbian boyfriend is really a bad combination. Celebrating a victory after the match in these circumstances might really have a harmful effect.

In short, don't go around with your colours, don't show you are gay. All of the above applies in worst case scenario but it doesn't mean you won't have the best time of your life there. The city is beautiful, the atmosphere in the stadium is great, food is good and beer is cheap if you do what locals do (go to a shop and sit on wall and drink it there instead of some ripoff bar.

I don't like it is that way but I would hate it if anything happened to you there just because you wear wrong colour.

Now, onto football. Hajduk is defensively strong outfit. Don't think you will have walk in the park on Goodison. They will scout you good and knwo what you are capable. They will be very defensive in the first match and look to exploit any foolishness. Hajduk isn't naive squad and any overconfidenece will be punished. Look out for numbers 50 and 8.

I'd like to know how important is this Europa League for Everton? Do you even plan to play with the best eleven? Do you even care for this cup?
 
Tough draw but if we have any serious thoughts of going a long way in this competition then we have to be beating sides like that as nobody would have them down as a side who could make the latter stages.
