What do you buy on match day?

Lord Buddha · July 3, 2014

I'll start, nothing. The reason why is because I couldn't be bothered walking around with it before during and after the game. The first time I took my girlfriend I bought her a scarf (sorry, she actually bought it herself.) I used to buy programmes but like I say I cannot be bothered carrying it round with me so I don't bother now, I wish I did buy more to be honest especially from the away games. I keep all of my match tickets in a shoebox. I don't understand why people just throw them on the ground, I've seen quite a few after the match on the Tarmac and that's after we've just beat Man Utd! I sometimes buy a bottle of water before I go in as I like to stay hydrated during the 90 minutes but other than that I don't buy anything. At the aways I think I'll make more of an effort to buy merchandise.
How about you guys, do you regularly buy programmes, hats, badges, scarves. Does anyone remember the old programme shop by the park end? It had a picture of the cup final team 1995 on the wall.

Some beer on County Road and a programme to send to my Uncle in Australia

Programme, burger and drink, nothing exciting, don't have too much alcohol or i'd spend the match in the toilets.

I hate carrying stuff around as well and plus the Everton 1 is always chocka and not ideal for browsing on match days.

I buy all the hype about Barkley, and then leave the ground wondering if he is really all that great.

Char sui barm from the chippy on St.Domingo Road. That's it. I get there for kick off and go straight home after it.

Usually get a program if its a home game

Rarely even read them, just buy them out of habit

@Allezfan thinks I'm mad. He's probably right

Dithering Dougie · July 3, 2014

Couple of pints of Chang and a programme.

Mikey_Fitzgerald · July 3, 2014

Never ordered the "Scouse Pie" or whatever it is

I just know it'll make me look more WOOL than I already am

Bovril, the meaty drink of gods.

A pint of Chang st half time. Used to buy programs I'd read them once and then they just take up space. Stilk have them all but can't remember the last time I looked at them.

Having been to an nba game earlier in the year I would love some bottomless popcorn, would go flying everywhere when we score.

Foot Long Hot Dog · July 3, 2014

A couple of pints in the alehouse. A Chang at the ground and a sausage roll. Never buy programmes anymore. Can't be arsed with the HT scrum either.

Jake Wignall · July 3, 2014

About 25 pints, a programme and a few betting slips. I don't usually remember the first half of the match and almost certainly miss a goal or 2.

About 500g of Ketamine. Pop down to see Kev early, we start on the stuff. Get a few more of the lads round. Hopefully they've brought some of their own or they'll be all over mine. Buy a ticket on the bus, head into town. The loads of continue our ritual of doing our little shop before the game at M&S. Kev generally gets that fancy lemonade they do. I'll get some bread and biscuits, generally. Their oat and raisin cookies.
All back out of town to dump our shopping at our houses.
Back on the bus, another ticket, this time to Goodison. Once near the ground, buy a badge and try and pin it to Kev's face. Always a laugh.
Don't buy any booze there as I like concentrating on the game.
Once the match has finished - have a look on the ground. If we don't find anything, call up Jez and get some coke for the evening at Brink on Parr Street.
Get some smoothies. Home with a falafel.
