60 Evertonians: 20. Paul Gleeson

Paul Gleeson Bio: - Paul Gleeson is just one among many recent graduates, searching in eternal hope of a job slightly affiliated with his degree (Media and Cultural Studies). In the meantime, he writes sports criticism with his work being featured on award-winning football blog In Bed with Maradona, as well as his own blog these are utopias who never happen. Q1. Why Everton? Both my Dad and Grandad were Evertonians – it being somewhat of a family curse, apparently – plus my mum’s side of the family never visibly expressed any club-loyalties, so Everton it was. Q2. I remember standing amongst a glum chain gang of fans at...

60 Evertonians: 19. Thomas Mallows

Thomas Mallows Bio: - I grew up in Ormskirk, just outside Liverpool and quickly became obsessed with the mighty Blues from a young age. I had a season ticket from 1994 until 2009, when work/money pressures forced me to reduce my match going habits. I still go as much as I can but since qualifying as a sports journalist in 2008 I have concentrated much of my passion for Everton into running SBNation’s Everton blog – www.royalbluemersey.com.   Q1. Why Everton? I wasn’t given a choice! My Grandma & Grandad were massive Evertonians and they passed that onto my Mum and her sisters – who in turn spread the...

60 Evertonians: 17. Liz Forster

Liz Forster Bio: - I’m a 29 year old not dull at all accountant, living in Huyton. Evertonian all my life, with a season ticket in the lower gwladys. Q1. Why Everton? Like most of us, we had no choice! My dad was a blue and as his first born it was passed on to me. My mum and dad used to run a pub and they would dress me and the pub in Everton gear for all the cup finals in the 80’s! The first game I have a memory of was Tony Cottee’s debut against Newcastle in 88/89 season. I was hooked ever since. Q2. I remember...

Paul Dargan Bio: Paul is a freelance writer covering everything from Soccer to Chefs and is a regular contributor to the Followtonians Podcast. Q1. Why Everton?  Well, my uncle beat my dad to taking me to a game. My dad is a Red, if that initial line doesn’t explain that. My first game was on August 27 1988, when Tony Cottee scored the first three of 99 career goals for us. I never looked back and when I was old enough to, began going with my school mates in the mid-1990s. Even though that was the nadir of our generation, I was insatiable and craved the atmosphere surrounding the...
