Everton fan who stole food at new stadium gets ban

A football fan who filmed himself stealing food at Everton’s new stadium during a test event has received a lifetime ban from the club.

The video showed the man ordering food at the new Bramley-Moore Dock ground in Vauxhall, Liverpool, before the server turned away to make him a coffee.

The fan was then heard saying “adios amigo” before walking away laughing, adding: “Well, the first man to officially do a Toby [slang for theft] at Bramley-Moore Dock.”

Merseyside Police said officers had been made aware of the incident but it was a matter for the club.

He was also asked to donate the £12.75 sum of food to the Everton in the Community charity.

The video was captured during the stadium’s first trial event on 17 February, which welcomed 10,000 fans to watch Everton play Wigan in an under-18s friendly.

The stadium will become the Toffees’ new home for the start of the 2025/26 season, as they leave Goodison Park in the summer, after 133 years playing there.
