Everton Football Club

Liverpool


Founded in 1878, Liverpool's blue half, Everton FC, consoles itself for existing in the shadow of its more successful neighbour with the historical truth of 'we were there first'. Goodison Park Tours run throughout the year, except on the Friday before home matches. The ground is 2.5 miles northeast of the city centre.
