Not a rumour but after some advice please. taking my 8 year old son to his first match at Goodison in May and he'd love to try and grab an autograph or two. where and when is best to try and nab the players as they turn up? Thanks in advance.

In the car park behind the park end used to be where I took my kids. Most players drive in and then walk past the supporters with kids who want autographs. Some players are brill and sign all who ask. others not so brill. Most will sign a couple. Tim Cahill used to sign and chat and pick kids up for photos etc. great human being!

Thanks for your reply mate, that’s great. How early before kick off should I be getting there for do you reckon?

Hi Brightwell, as degsy said, go to the players entrance which is on the corner of the Park End and Bullens Road (you can't miss it it's protected by barriers and will have other people after autographs there as well) .
My lad was a ball boy a good few years ago now and we were told to be there for 1.30 for a 3.00 kick off so he could meet and greet the players as they came in to register pre match.
Good luck, hope your son gets a book full of autographs.

My advice would be to try and bag a signature from one of Brands signings. My guess is signatures from anyone else may have a limited shelf life of the summer.
