A company from Stirling in Scotland is offering an amazing match day experience for Saturday's match with Aston Villa to one lucky fan and their guest.

Mytownvideo are sponsoring the Everton match day programme for the Premier League encounter with Aston Villa. Their sponsorship of the programme includes a full day of hospitality at Goodison Park and a seat in the director's box for six people and a behind the scenes stadium tour.

As a gesture by the company, two of the six places are being offered to a worthy fan. Do you know an Evertonia deserving of an extra-special trip to Goodison?

The company managing director, Tony I'Anson, is a lifelong Everton fan from the City who left for Stirling in 1988 to study at Stirling University, but has remained faithful to the Everton cause from afar.

Tony would like to invite two Everton fans to join him on this memorable day at Goodison Park and has asked if Everton could identify two suitable people.

"I would like to ask if there are any Everton fans out there who should be considered as a 'hero Everton fan' for whatever reason," he told evertonfc.com.

"I would like any of their family or friends to contact Everton with the reasons why they think this person should be invited along this Saturday. I am a real Everton fan and I would just like to give someone else the chance to experience a day of Goodison hospitality."

"For some people this may be a once in a lifetime opportunity to see what goes on behind the scenes at Goodison and have a truly memorable day out."

If you know of someone in your community who would relish such an opportunity, please send an email to web.team@evertonfc.com detailing why your nominated person should join Tony and other Everton fanatics on Saturday in the Alex Young suite.

The cut off date for receipt of nominations is 4pm on Thursday, October 29. The Evertonian selected will be notified before midday on Friday.
