The support from Stoke at Goodison was never well supported to be honest considering it’s a short distance apart.
The Victoria ground was good for atmosphere as is the Britannia. I prefer the Victoria to the new one. Parking facilities are poor and there is no character to the new stadium.

Love/hate games? Always special for the reason in my first answer to question one.

The players I admired from Stoke? Banks, Ritchie, Eastman, Conroy, Bloor, Hudson, Dobing.

Stoke City were the visitors for my first game back in 1968 where Everton won 2-1.
My first ever away game was at the old Victoria Ground 8th November 1975 where Stoke won 3-2.
That is a coincidence and is special.
I don’t see Stoke these days as a big fixture. It’s just another game.
I’m friends with Mike Pejic and Mike Bernard too.
