A question about Everton fans

[Modo]

Can Liverpool's success affect the number of next generation Everton supporters in the City?
I mean why would kids want to be Everton supporters except if they're "forced" into it by family members.

Underdog syndrome

I’m always bemused by the saying “the red half of the city”. Yeah, as if there’s a half of the city that support that shit win nothing bitter club

Underdog syndrome

True

 

[Red Astaire]

As an OOT I've nothing but good vibes towards Neverton. The one thing I do know is they are very bitter. That's a truism.

I'll never forget how they stood next to us regarding the 96 tragedy though. In my opinion that makes them sound. Cities unite when it matters. Everything else is just playful bollocks

 

[StevieM]

Fuck Everton.

They can shove their underdogness up their arse.

Some bitter blue let off a blue flare by us when the bus went past yesterday.

Mad looking at the scenes yesterday that they still think they're the people's club and that the majority of the city support them.

Most of the blues I know have been quiet. Not in a bitter, retiring way. Just more in a quiet, almost respectful, acceptance. Not a lot they can say or do really, is there?

I'm not sure what people expect if you do a massive fucking mural of the Liverpool manager in a two club city.

I'd be more surprised and disappointed if it didn't get defaced.

Is that in the Baltic Triangle? I'd expect something a bit more creative.

I actually know a Bitters supporter who goes on about that.
Everton is the 'people's club' etc and all Liverpool fans are Norwegians and OOT'ers.
Which is hilarious since this gimp is from Kuala Lumpur like me.
Told him to share his erudite views in the King Harry after a few pints.

They definitely are getting less fans. I remember when it felt fifty fifty. Now none of my kids mates support them. How could you when we get all these big days out that everyone ends up going on?

Yeah, I can't imagine anything else happening. As a kid, you want to be part of that success and Klopp is absurdly charismatic.

Obviously there will still be the family influence, and that will be strong as long as the parents actually care.
My Dad is an Evertonian, but his hardcore home and away fervour and Bitterness diminished when he had children, which is why he's got two Blue and two Red sons.

Although one of my blue nephews went up to his room after the final, and spat on the Liverpool top he was given after a football tournament at Anfield recently.

So some habits die hard.
