Time to box off 2025

This one will stand out down the line. That final day at Goodison feels so long ago. Seven months on, the Originals are in a new home, with new prospects.

What started here five years ago as curiosity - discussing our culture, getting to grips with and exposing the fundamentals of the fanbase as we anticipated leaving Goodison, and celebrated Everton in a way we felt hadn’t been properly acknowledged - was a response to a culture rooted in family, long overdue conversations, heritage, obsession and identity - when our fan culture hadn’t perhaps been openly discussed in a way that now seems more en vogue / captured or marked at the intensity we see these days by photographers and fans alike, clamouring to preserve this fandom thing that we’re tied to, whatever the cause or goal. Football, and its connection to something rooted in authenticity, paired with fashion, is at peak levels, and the race to produce content seems never ending, be it authentic or not.

For the die-hards and newcomer blues, the quiet-pint traditionalists, grand old lady pushers, culture chasers, nostalgia lovers, fan channels, the purists and the posh-seat converts, the (h) and (a)s, South Stand Street End custodians - it makes up an evolving concoction of Evertonia.

Notable, collaborations along the way this year:

A thought for those we’ve lost in 2025, and a nod to the fans seeking the obscure, pure Everton nostalgia and heritage we love - without which this collective wouldn’t have continued. So, UTFT, and a Happy New Year.

A smorgasbord of the good stuff, if you will. ‘Tis the season. And what a Decemeber so far, Blues. Some rare oddities, infused with overdue highs. That league table’s looking better than it has for some time. Lap it up as it comes.

Some bits on film, some ‘60s and ‘90s nostalgia, Liverpool: Then and Now, Goodison Rd tray of chip in the winter throwback, and the new place feeling more like home.

Light show Z cars ft. images of former Everton greats just doesn’t hit it when there’s little identity on the pitch. Guess it’s the style of the loss, the fashion of the defeat, that can sway you - rather than fill you with the ice-cold apathy that comes with the overpriced ticket and memberships we’re encouraged to endorse, all in the name of progress and the like. Maybe the team needed another in-house scuffle to energise themselves.

Seats that empty in huge swathes before full-time make you wonder if the experience sold to us was ever that unique, and the novelty wears thin. Really thin. The game feels more bland than it ever has, and that’s across the board by the way. Sterile, expensive, fake. There’s an emptiness to the fancy lanyards, food menus, contrived history, and players on eye-watering figures seemingly void of much effort, ideas, or ability at times. Buy into your club! You’ll be sorry you didn’t!

So, thermals at the ready. A long winter ahead down by the banks of the royal blue Mersey. And it’s the fans who’ll pay, in more ways than one.

UTFT!
