Evertonians...

  Are born not manufactured. I'm not sure that any one particular experience of following Everton stands out - well perhaps the great night against Bayern Munich (and, if truth be told, even the lack of glory can still have a resonance of pride and warm feeling - for example taking my 9 year old niece along with my Dad (nearly 80 now) and my son to the Villarreal game. Winning isn't everything is it? Alan Ball once said that once Everton has touched you nothing will be the same, Brian Labone famously made reference to 1 Evertonian being worth 20 Reds.. and, for those of us who are blessed to have Royal Blue blood in their veins it isn't about trophies - and we've been blessed with plenty - it's the belonging.
