Match: Everton - Arsenal 1-4 (Premier League)

Attendance: 39 443

After an eventful morning, I managed to smash a glass door at a an internet cafe in Manchester but although my arm was covered in glass I was not physically hurt (but a bit shocked), I set off for Liverpool and after some train changes I arrived at Kirkdale. After a 15 minute walk I was at Goodison, I had to be there early to pick up my ticket. It was a very windy day at Merseyside and when there were some horisontal rain showers the conditions weren´t the best..

Goodison Park has some restricted views and I couldn´t see the goal at the Gwladys End because of a pillar but it didn´t matter too much as all the goals were scored at the other end. Arsenal were a bit lucky to win, or as someone in the stand said "How can they score four goals when they only had three chances?". I liked Goodison Park and can fully understand why some Evertonians don´t want to move but with all the restricted views I can also understand those who want that new stadium in Kirkby.
