You can see that the lad who was carted away does nothing wrong, other than end up in the area for Burnley's disabled fans. Very harsh on the lad.

Watched this on Sunday night. Particularly liked the visit to the 'Chocolate Shop' and the review of the various bits of food he's eating during the game.

An excellent watch. However, very surprised how many empty seats there were in the Burnley upper tier. Was there a problem with tickets sales because we should sellout for an Everton trip

No, but we live in Kent. We manage to attend about 12 matches each season.

A Wispa bar is probably a highlight for an Everton fan at the moment

This is pure speculation but I imagine they didn't release upper tier until lower was a guaranteed sell out. The problem that may have created is we sell the first 85/90% at a steady rate then advertise 'restricted view' and sales dry up. A good number of fans make alternative arrangements before upper tier goes on sale.
I definitely wouldn't go back to either Goodison or Anfield if I was being offered those God awful seats. That considered being on Sky makes it a no brainer for many.

Or it could be the fact that it's a Sunday, shite view, it's on TV and apparently a nightmare journey if you were wanting to get there by train.
Thought it was a decent turnout myself.
I watched Everton v Rovers one Sunday a decade ago, and Rovers took about 400, they didn't even sell half of the lower tier.
I think our turn out was decent all things considered.

Oh there were thoughts lime street maybe closed and possibly an extra hour on the journey, or lots of faffing with changes and/or bus services needing to be used.

About 2400 were there, not too bad. We very rarely sell out the 3k we are entitled to anywhere apart from City, United and Liverpool.

he knew more about crisps and chocolate bars than he did about football, 38000 fans inside and he chose to interview a drunk who knew even less.

Can somebody please tell me why he's in disguise, because if not, he must be wearing that wig and false tash for a joke, right ?

Eating chocolate bars and chicken salad while pretending to watch football is something else but that tash is on another level.
Hipster alert!!!

'Go on'
'Go on'
'Go on'
'Go on'
'EVERTON, EVERTON, EVERTON Go on, Go on'
I would have stuffed my crisps down this blokes throat after 5 minutes

How annoying is that Everton fan who keeps shouting?
