Everton North end Liverpool South End

[JelavicBrate2]

One thing I've always wondered about is why Everton tend to have more fans North End of the city, yet areas like Garston, Halewood, Netherley and Speke tend to be infested with RS. Do anyone know historic reasons for why this is the case?

At one time there were Everton supporters clubs all over the city, but maybe lack of relative success meant that it was the heartlands round the ground that stayed the course with the club.

There may be demographics also involved around religion back in the day.

Because they’re all plazzie scousers and wools who’ve moved in from the Wirral, St Helens and Runcorn. And they smell.

Never really noticed a geographical divide.

One thing I notice though, is I don’t know a single Liverpool fan from within the city who actually goes to a match.

not sure, but I’ll guarantee they’ll be flaming a million people on the streets for the parade, claiming the city . When in actual fact there isn’t that meant people in this city and 70% of those attending will have driven or flown in for the occasion.

The old, and now fading graffiti around Devon Street, will tell you that back in the 1960's the London Road area was full of Toffee's.

 

[dockroad]

Never mind the city , the whole country is full of so-called Liverpool fans who never go the game .

You see just as many rs walking around the north end as Blues. To be honest you don't really see many kit wearers in the South End in my opinion, you do see more rs kit wearing children though.

The Bryant & May match works used megatons of sulphur back in the day and the chimneys belched out this poisonous gas into the atmosphere, affecting all expecting mothers at the time. The result was masses of slightly stupid, web-toed children, none of whom had the common sense to support a proper club. At around the same time, Satan came up from hell, attracted by the sulphuric stench and was greeted by thousands of moth-breathing mutants, whom he took to his heart and claimed as his own. Thus was born the web-toed, dimwitted, snot-nosed charmers who stink of sulphur and uric acid who can forever be found worshiping at Satans very own cathedral.

And if yer know yer history…

Plenty of Evertonians in L8. Most of my close and extended family and mates are all blues.

A mate of mine has been involved in kids footy training for over 40yrs, and been a scout for various clubs. He used to say that judging by the kids turning up in their kits, in the 80s it was roughly even in the north end, but we were outnumbered at least 2 to 1 South end. He says it's only gotten worse in recent times. All my kids went to school in South Liverpool, all said they were amongst the only Evertonians in their classes. Similarly, if you ever go into town (or local) to watch us playing away on the TV in a pub and if LFC are playing at the same time, you will see that we are almost always well outnumbered. (Unless you're in a blue pub). That's what happens when you play second fiddle for all but 4 or 5yrs of the previous 50 seasons.
