I hope Neville Southall manages to get on the mic. Any hope of a sterile BBC sendoff will go out the window.

You could've found that out as quick as it took you to type that post.

I know, but I wanted a witty response

Made up it’s not that blert Rossy tbh.

His voice is very similar to Alan Partridge. Always makes me laugh when he starts talking

…..there’s going to be a huge load of people down there without tickets, the number I’ve spoken to who are just going down for the atmosphere and ‘watch the game in the Winslow’.

Be some occasion, hope the authorities are aware.

Your son is going to try and rush in without a ticket. Let's hope he gets booted and doesn't ruin it for people in the ground.

Is Bellew one of the examples of online opinion being very different to actual match going fans opinion?
I don't know anyone who likes him and only a few who tolerate him.
Dyche on the Overlap going on about death threats and now Bills best bud doing MC for Sunday.
Seems to me that the club need to get as far away from the last 5 years as possible and this isn't helping.

He also has his own face as the background on his Apple Watch.

Which is very Partridge.

Hollywood actor Tony Bellew! What a pull!

Full time job for him over the last few weeks on tv and radio covering the build up to the final game. You’d think he was the only Everton fan around

Ah shame about Bellwiff hosting the cermony

Oh well more time to go the pub, instead of hearing him waffle on

….he’s managed to get one now, thanks for asking

He knows his boxing but he chats wham about us and football in general.

he seems to be the go to for media when talking about Everton, Odds on him mentioning his best mate bill on Sunday?

What's the opposite of 'happy clapping' ?

Maybe won't be so bad knocking off at the final whistle after all.

 

[neil999]

The presenter bloke is fine, not too annoying or anything... bellew is ridiculous, just get any ex player with media experience...osman would do ffs!

I don't even think it's that at this point. Nobody who really wants to go on sunday is going to see one very gently worded paragraph in a wider statement and say oh no i'd best change my plans. If they were really trying to deter people they'd be pushing the message at every opportunity, not actively encouraging people to turn up for an officially endorsed coach welcome. Of course they won't mind if some people do heed it, but that's not the point of it. The statement is just so they can legitimately say that they asked people without tickets not to come, nothing more.

Yes - I'm in agreement, but also thinking there are a few who were thinking "I might just pop along, if I'm not busy" who now won't - but they're not the same as the ones you refer to as ones who really want to go.

Either way, I hope everyone who goes, with a ticket or just to be near the place, has a fantastic and memorable occasion. I won't be there, but I'll be watching on TV and wishing I was there.
