Randomly ended up on a thread about this subject recently. Was curious about Irish support after listening to an Irish podcast from city talk I think talking about our seamie. I think it was on republic of cork or something. Anyway most lids agreed it was Man U and RS then arsenal. After that the disagreed. Everton were mentioned by most, but it depended on where the lived and who they knew.
I think in the days of heavy emigration to England it depended on on where your dad, brother, cousin ended up and who they supported. Liverpool was a prime destination and Everton were the team for most Irish working class north siders. I bet we have larger support among older generations.

Also a strong lineage of Irish Everton players over the years. Pleased weve headed that way again this season with McCarthy, Coleman, Gibson and Duffy. Were missing some ace Welsh players though. So are Wales like.
What about Scotland?
Davie Weir done good things man.
Makes me sad to say I've seen about 3 people with Everton shirts/merchandise back home, not including my dad.
One of them was a brilliant rich guy who nearly ran us over (both of us wearing our shirts, match day and that) with his Bentley or something but came out of the car with an Everton scarf around his neck and bought us beers and we enjoyed a laugh before we had to go all go home cuz the game wasn't on TV, think it was vs. Villa.
Anywho, really hard to find merchandise in Nike (and LCS before) shops as well, even though you can find random other teams shirts. I have no clue why but you could actually get West Brom shirts when they were with Adidas a few seasons ago ffs.

Back before you could walk in to a Sports Authority for your ManUre or Arsenal shirt, I bought my '95 Everton top in a small specialty shop owned by a pair of Iranian brothers. The place was probably 600sq ft in total but it was football Mecca for me. There were tops from all over the world, I wasted a lot of money in there buying shirts I never wore, just because they had them.

There are a lot of Evertonians in Ireland. However we don't shout it from the rooftops like Utd and RS fans. A massive amount of the older generation (over 50's) would be blues as was mentioned earlier there were a fair few Irish players in the 40's 50's and 60's with Everton. Farrell, Eglington and Meagan being examples. I've had many conversations with blues and have been in unique position where we have outnumbered RS for derby games in pubs due to mates being blues. It's just that being an Evertonian means so much more than just wearing a jersey. If McGeady signs and the RoI team start having some success under O'Neill I can see another wave of younger Irish Evertonians coming through. Just to note it's only in the last few months that no one has questioned why I support Everton when I've mentioned it

I know five Evertonions in Warrenpoint.
Well then you'd have to say the club are pretty inept in their commercial dealings.
Kitbag don't exist in Ireland or most places around the world.
So basically Everton have shut themselves out of markets across the world

I'm a Dubliner too, growing up in Dublin playing for the local teams I was usually the only everton supporter, i'm 39 now and I'd say it was a rarity if someone didn't support man utd or pool, the occasional arsenal fan here or there, city and chelsea didn't exist in those days - I moved to a small village in Donegal 4 years ago and have yet to meet another evertonian bar my 'next door' neighbour who lives a quarter of a mile down the road who is actually from Liverpool but he went off his meds one night and started running up and down the road wielding a machete (the week we moved in) so unsurprisingly I haven't suggested going to watch a match with him!!!!
Wouldn't swap being an everton fan for the world, its great to be a blue

Indeed mate. Everton are the Catholic club. Dont know why Irish footy fans support Liverpool. From the Republic anyway. They sound like a right load of Uncle Toms.
