A 62-year-old man has received an "indefinite ban" from attending Everton matches over a video which appeared to show him not paying for food during the first test event of the club's new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock. The clip, which circulated on social media, purportedly showed a man ordering food during the game on February 17, when Everton's Under-18s played against Wigan Athletic's youth team with 10,000 fans in attendance.

There were several moments of Everton's 1-0 win away to Nottingham Forest on Saturday when the promise of Armando Broja was clear. On his first start since January, the on-loan Chelsea striker battled with centre-backs Murillo and Nikola Milenkovic, gave Everton an attacking platform, and linked well with team-mates. Particularly in the first half, he regularly surged from deep, evading multiple challenges, and put his team on the front foot.

Everton women’s head coach Brian Sorensen is in advanced talks over a new contract. Though discussions over an extension are progressing, nothing is yet signed and an announcement is not expected imminently. Sorensen was appointed head coach in the summer of 2022 and signed a new two-year deal last April, which runs until June 2026. The 44-year-old Dane led Everton to sixth- and eighth-place finishes respectively in the 2022-23 and 2023-24 Women’s Super League (WSL) seasons.

Then he shrugged and put his finger to the side of his head. The message left little room for interpretation.
