    Dan Doyle's grave to be marked on November 6th

    Majority of my board are Evertonians mate and one runs a bus from Glasgow when fixtures allow. I'll be at Goodison myself on Boxing Day with my son and his cousin. The love in centres around the Walk On more imho rather than historical closeness. I've never felt welcome at Anfield when...
