WOMEN’S PREMIER LEAGUE TITLE WINNERS TO BE REUNITED

Get to your seats early to welcome some very special guests to Goodison Park.

Everton’s FA Women’s Premier League title-winning side of 1997/98 will be introduced on to the pitch around 10 minutes before kick-off as we mark the 25th anniversary of their table-topping achievement.

The Club, working alongside the Everton Heritage Society, have been able to reunite the former players, coaches, management and Club staff who helped the Blues lift silverware and create history in the women’s game.

Everyone at Everton looks forward to the special welcome they will get at Goodison Park ahead of the Merseyside derby.

FANZONE

The Fanzone, in the Park End car park, will be open from 5pm.

Graeme White will be the host of the show that will include a performance on stage from Meg Birch. The Live Show will cover all the stage activity and include special guests from Everton’s 1997/98 title winning side.

Representatives from Barclays Women’s Super League will be on hand to help giveaway some branded foam fingers, so keep an eye out around the ground if you want to grab one.

Catering units will be on-site with hot and cold refreshments, including the Park End Kitchen, a Club-owned foot outlet. The popular eatery was launched in response to feedback from supporters, in conjunction with the Fans’ Forum, on food they would like to see and experience.

The Homebaked Bakery will have pies available in the Fanzone, at the blue HomebakedBakery@Goodison Park-branded concession. Fans will have the chance to sample the famous Homebaked Scouse Pie, the award-winning Vegan Scouse Pie, as well as Everton themed pies The Blue (Steak & Stilton) and The Trinity Pie, in honour of Howard Kendall, Colin Harvey and Alan Ball.  

Please note: No pyrotechnics (smoke canisters or flares) will be allowed in the Fanzone.

90MIN FAN VAN

Blues and Reds will have the chance to experience this unique entertainment hub for the first time at Goodison on matchday.

Located in the Fanzone ahead of kick-off, supporters will have the chance can play some of the latest games consoles, watch some on-demand video output and much more.

STAKE AND HER GAME TOO LINK UP

Eagle-eyed Evertonians will notice a change of brand on the Everton Women warm-up t-shirt ahead of kick-off.  

The Club’s Main Partner Stake.com has kindly donated their front of shirt presence on the t-shirts to Her Game Too.

This is part of a collaboration between the two organisations which will also see Stake.com donate the use of their Executive Box to the campaign, which champions women in sport and tackles sexist and online abuse.

MATCHDAY PROGRAMME

The Club’s official matchday programme can be purchased from sellers located in and around Goodison Park.

Priced at £2.50, this edition includes the captain’s notes from Lucy Hope and further interviews with Nico Sorensen, Nathan Patterson and former Everton goalkeeper Rachel Brown-Finnis.

Blues also have the chance to get to know Izzy Christiansen better as she does the ‘Get To Know’ interview, while also revealing which members of the Blues squad have hidden talents.


TRAVEL INFORMATION

Just like they would do for men’s fixtures, the Soccerbus service will be operating from Sandhills Station to Goodison Park.

The service will begin at 5.30pm and run up until kick-off.

Stanley Park Car Park will be open for this fixture, with spaces available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

FOODBANK DONATIONS

Fans’ Supporting Foodbanks and their unmissable purple vehicle will be in their usual Fanzone position – accessible from Goodison Road.

With the cost of living now deeply impacting families across Merseyside, Blues and Reds are encouraged to donate non-perishable or a variety of dry products, such as rice or pasta; tinned foods including fruit and steamed puddings, or non-perishable packets such as breakfast cereals, biscuits, long life milk, coffee, fruit juice and sugar. Toiletries and children’s nappies are also very welcome.

PYROTECHNICS / PITCH ENCROACHMENT

Supporters are reminded that the use of pyrotechnics, smoke canisters, flares and entering the field of play is a criminal offence.

The Club is committed to football’s collective stance in tackling anti-social and criminal behaviour at football matches.

Everton has previously outlined and maintains that it will take a zero-tolerance approach to pitch encroachment. Stadium bans - and even criminal prosecution - can and will be enforced to punish anyone that enters the playing area.

The Club is legally compelled to work with the authorities to identify any individuals who take part in such activity.

This also applies to the use of any pyrotechnics (smoke grenades and or flares) and the throwing of objects of any description on to the pitch. These acts are dangerous, illegal and have severe consequences.

Under strict stadium guidelines, all pyrotechnics are prohibited and supporters are advised that spot checks will take place at turnstiles and any such items will be confiscated.

Fans also run the risk of arrest and a subsequent stadium ban for possession of a pyrotechnic inside a football stadium.

SUPPORTERS CODE OF CONDUCT / REPORTING DISCRIMINATION

Everton Football Club has a strict, zero tolerance approach to all incidents of discrimination and disorder.

We remind supporters that all perpetrators of public order offences, which includes racist or discriminatory behaviour, pitch encroachment and the throwing of objects, will receive lengthy stadium bans, potential police investigation and further possible legal sanctions.

Everton has a dedicated text number for fans to report any discriminatory or abusive behaviour they witness during matches at Goodison Park.

If you see or hear something, please report it to our Stadium Safety Team immediately by texting HELP and your message to 84300, or email reportit@evertonfc.com. In your message, please include details of what you have witnessed and where.

You will be sent a text or email confirming your message has been received by our Stadium Safety Team.
