Everton are one of the few clubs left with a tradition stadium and yet they're planning to leave goodison according to the commentator.
At half time I went upstairs to wrap presents and watch the prince harry show.
I think that's pretty unfair. All of the foreign players will have grown up with just as much understanding of what the merseyside derby is about as any UK players born outside of Liverpool.

If anything, I'd say it's generally the foreign players who give more of a **** about fans and what the games mean to them than UK players in recent years.
