Everton To Create Giant ‘Fan Wall' At New Stadium

A commemorative ‘fan wall’ at Everton Stadium is set to celebrate popular Blues figures past and present – and give thousands of supporters the opportunity to become a part of the club’s new home. 

 
Following the success of Everton Way, an initiative that gave Evertonians the chance to have a personalised stone installed outside the soon-to-open stadium’s South Stand, a mosaic artwork comprised entirely of fan photos is set to be installed on its river-facing western side.  
 

Named ‘The Originals’, the artwork will honour Everton players who have realised unique achievements while representing the club and those who have truly embodied the Everton spirit on and off the pitch.  
 

Everton fans from across the world will be able to submit a photo for the wall, with the personal images set to be pieced together to create a magnificent fan-inspired mosaic. 
 

Among the initial line-up of ‘Originals’ will be Dixie Dean, the club’s greatest ever goalscorer, the Holy Trinity of Alan Ball, Howard Kendall and Colin Harvey, and ‘The last of the Corinthians’, the great Brian Labone.  

Everton’s first black captain Kevin Campbell, the club’s record Premier League appearance maker Seamus Coleman and Tim Cahill – a fan favourite and scorer of Australia’s first ever World Cup goal during his time at Everton – will also take their place on the wall.  

 
They are joined by Bob Latchford, a goalscoring hero of the 1970s, and decorated 1980s duo Graeme Sharp and Neville Southall, ensuring the wall represents names and eras that have inspired all generations of Evertonians.    
 

Over the coming seasons, supporters will get the chance to be involved in the selection of more players and club names to join ‘The Originals’ wall, with the mosaic set to expand, creating new opportunities for Blues to add themselves to the very fabric of the club’s 52,888-capacity home.  

The initiative and its initial line-up has been announced following consultation with fan groups, including the club’s Fans’ Forum.
