Before the article was published, I noticed several people on Twitter discussing the idea that their should be no problems with him attending games, there seemed to be support for it. Some strange quotes in that article though, I don't think he's ready to move on.

I’d take a guess, they underestimated how fed up some of the supporters were and it kind of came to a boiling point against Brighton at home when we got beat 1-4 and the crowd starting chanting “sack the board”
They immediately went to the shame tactic routine, which has worked for them before. They saw a protest was planned for the Southampton game and left it as late as possible to release information about a headlock incident and their safety being compromised.
Predictably, allies in the media and the fan base came out with the usual stuff “give them till the end of the transfer window” “no players will want to sign” “just get behind the team “ etc.
As you say, It is all very cloak and dagger. To say a lot of these ex players are well thought of, they didn’t have much to say about a club they supposedly care about when it was going through a really bad time.
I doubt we will ever get the full story on all this but for me the club has been run more like a social club than a football club . It stinks to be honest.

Unfortunately a lot of the ex players were Kenwright stooges, that’s why I have more respect for Southall. A true legend who kept himself separate.
I don’t think he’s helped his cause with his comments in that interview. He’s continuing to fuel the idea that he’s not safe in visiting Goodison. The whole narrative put round by the board at that time was totally unhelpful to the team and the wider reputation of the club. It was all about portraying Kenwright, Baxendale, Moshiri and Sharp as victims. This was not the case. Their stewardship of the club nearly lead us to extinction. Sharp chose his side, he could have resigned his position and called for change, he instead backed the board.
He’s welcome to come to games now. He’s not going to be headlocked, or attacked, but doing an interview moaning about now being welcomed back just continues the wharped narrative.

He's now a statistic in the past. The old man who aided Kenwright and continues to not see his errors can gtf.

Bob Latchford was a hero of mine when watching Everton when I was little then came along Graeme Sharp and he became my Hero. What a centre forward for us. Brilliant player but I still couldn't understand that day playing Southampton and we all turned at Goodison Park to find out the Board and Non Executive Director Graeme Sharp where not going to turn up for today's game. It totally changed the atmosphere and that was wrong. We lost the game for that reason. The Everton supporters didn't deserve that. Sharpy should have said we are one and we are in this together. I do hope Sharpy will want to come back and watch Everton play. Be a paying customer and support the Toffees. I hope he does. Bye. C.O.Y.B.

Utter Yes Man who is skint because he has burnt through his Kenwright fund and now back on the begging bowl looking for us to pay him after he sat on the board who:
Brought Rafael in
Headlock Gate
Took MILLIONS out of the club while we had Financial Fair Play Sanctions which COULD have relegated the club.
I am sure his "mate" Prentice is helping with his media spin so he can get back with the pandas and have a jolly on the club.
Get on the Sportsman Scene and get lost

Sharp is a club legend as a player, but a total traitor in the boardroom and beyond that.
Dont think this latest interview will help many of us simply forgive or forget, and continues the blatantly false narrative that the board were threatened or physically attacked in any way.
If he just admitted he was wrong and said sorry, he’s back to any games he likes, home or away, welcomed by the majority of blues I know - he doesn’t need to keep on about how badly they were treated, that wont help anything get sorted.
