Everton fans follow their team all around the country.

David Moyes‘ side are giving them their money’s worth on the pitch, with Jack Grealish starring for Everton since joining on loan.

However, it seems like football does not appreciate the commitment of the supporters, after a new Premier League announcement.

Everton have had a brilliant start to the season, and they will hope it continues into the festive period around November and December.

Everton supporters will be fuming with Sunderland decision
Obviously, supporters who are driving to the clash will be fine as they can just leave in their vehicles, but those taking trains and coaches have been shafted by the decision.

Travelling back to Liverpool from Sunderland requires a change at Newcastle anyway, but the last train with just one change departs at 20:17, which is 17 minutes into the contest.

Football supporters are regularly not considered when fixtures are moved around
They are often left short by poor train and bus times
Football has failed to address the issue
Any trains after that have four or five changes and do not get into Liverpool until between 6:00 and 8:00 in the morning.

The only National Express coach leaves at 23:45 in the evening, getting into Manchester for 03:30 before a four-hour and 10-minute wait for the changeover, then arriving in Liverpool at 08:35.

It is an absolute shambles that the match has been scheduled to take place at the time, it has, it is simply not fair for the Toffees fans.

Football is often accused of not looking after the fans, and the latest evidence suggests that nothing has changed in that regard, and it leaves a worrying stain on the beautiful game.
