Just seen there's a 15 year old AUS fan who's spent his savings to go to the last derby at goodison.

What 15 year old has savings to afford a flight of that distance, and how did he get a ticket?

Giulia and co have lapped it up.
You feel for these blues who've travelled from the other side of the world to watch us but we had a home game on Wednesday with loads of spares available so nobody with any sense missed out on seeing us play, and as it turns out it'd have been a pretty decent choice of match to have gone to.

I don't know how far in advance he would have purchased his ticket, but I'm sure the planning has taken a couple of months and he'd never have known that we'd have spares for Wolves that far in advance.

A lot of planning, preparation and money required to take in a match whwn your coming from Australia.

Hope the kid somehow gets a chance to see a game before the seasons out.

If anyone did a bit of research they'd know there'd be spares for a 7.30pm kick off against a bottom half team on a Wednesday night at the start of December three days before the home Derby. If they asked on this forum they'd be told the chances of getting a spare for Wolves were pretty good.

I don't think many 15 year olds are on this forum tbh mate.

I think a kid travelling half way around the world to watch Everton is amazing, so he should be cut some slack for not choosing the right game he may have been able to go to.

Judging by the type of adults who post on here I'm really glad there aren't.

I think there were a couple of kids over from Australia, one who got to see us and one who didn't. Then obv the fella on here who came from the US and didn't account for the fact that it could be called off so he's never seen us play. Personally, if I was planning a trip to the other side of the world or either of my lads were I'd have a contingency plan in place - the Wolves game was a few nights ago, tickets were available and accommodation was cheap.

Sadly he'd already been in the UK a few weeks before. Also attended the win against wolves. I'm confused how he booked another flight after attending that.

Am I missing something here? We had a lot of rightful noise for the food bank collection yet here we have our captain who can't play a game inviting him to the training ground.

Compare that to the Pickford video with a fan who sadly had much worse circumstances.
