One of their reporters spent last weekend in Liverpool. Aren't those very lovely ladies in the picture? I expect you Gooners going to the ganme to look out for them. Some quotes
"A man approaches me and says: "Where you're sitting has a history." Oh yes, I respond wearily, expecting another Beatles anecdote. But no. "That's where Christopher McBride was killed."
Two years ago, the 24-year-old Oxford graduate was sitting in my seat when he was punched twice in the face by 24-year-old John Frazer, possibly because McBride refused him a cigarette. McBride, a pacifist, did not fight back. Nine days later he died in hospital after suffering a fractured skull and brain damage."
" At 12.30 on Saturday afternoon, I'm with Everton fans outside the Winslow Hotel in the shadow of Goodison Park. A middle-aged man has draped his arm around my shoulders and is telling me that Mikel Arteta will run Jamie Carragher ragged. I ask how much he has had to drink. "Seven pints," he says. You'll miss the game because you'll be forever going to the toilet, I say. "Nah, I've got this," he says, reaching into a plastic bag." It's an empty two-litre bottle of Fanta. "Never need leave my seat."
