Local Leg End
My name is Simon. I'm 44 years young and I am technically from Birkenhead, born in Clatterbridge...raised in New Brighton, living in the Costa Del Seacombé. I was a web developer, UI designer, social media bod. I am now retired due to illness and health issues. I once had an interview at Rippleffect, who did the Everton website. I didn't get it because I didn't have a degree lol.

I like Everton (obvs), heavy metal, cats, playing guitar, making music, true crime, serial killer documentaries, space and horror movies. Feels like Tinder a bit now lol.

I'm very proud of my Slavic and Welsh heritage. I follow Wales because I cant take England being shocking. After they got beat by Iceland I gave up.

I found these forums by following you guys on social media, but found the forum when searching for Everton - The Official History dvd cover for Plex.

I became an Evertonian because my Dad tried to make me a Liverpool fan. He left when I was 4. I chose Everton when I was 6. My Mum's side of the family are blues. My Uncle took me to the games in the early 90s. Even at 6 I knew it would piss him off...and it did.

I contracted covid on the 22nd Feb 2022, only I could get it exactly then! I nearly died. I lost over 3 stone in 2 weeks. I'm on the mend now, 80% match fit...so probably fitter than DCL lol. I was a big Everton fan before covid, now I am 110% blue. I could only really cope with watching Everton fan YouTube channels. So I just immersed myself in everything Everton. Once I could get out of bed and walk, I took everything red I owned and gave it all to the local Barnardos. Getting an Everton tattoo on the 5th of April!

Also the whole "we do not choose we are chosen" is a load of bollocks. So is not being a "real" fan if you aren't from or living in L5! A fan is a fan is a fan.

Fav all time Everton player is Andrei Kanchelskis...and Dixie Dean (he's also from Birkenhead). Also have a fondness for Kevin Sheedy.

My current favourite player Anthony Gordon...as the rest are pretty woeful. Keane is the worst defender we've ever had!

Pineapple on Pizza, it socially acceptable!

My fav pizza. The meme is just bizarre. It was invented 60 years ago in Canada by a Greek immigrant!

Pizza already has fruit on it anyways...

Cheers, Simon

Yes, I did follow the template! ? ?

Welcome fellow Wirralian, expect a load of crap threads about the Wirral - no names, no pack drill, but @chicoazul
Post loads. :)
 

Welcome to the forum mate. ;)

You're no longer Simon BTW, you're now @theeicebear (not sure about the extra 'e' in there though) Glad to hear you're now on the mend after having the dreaded virus.
Hopefully you lurked for a while before posting. if so you will already be aware that you may need a good sense of humour and a thick skin. lol
Post loads.
