It&#8217;s not as if those supporters aren&#8217;t living in areas where they&#8217;re seeing the cost of living crisis in their communities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It was extremely disappointing to hear, but I thought Everton&#8217;s response was phenomenal. I think the work of Evertonians has been magnificent in the past few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;The van has been getting fuller and fuller at every home game.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/12\/00\/78847207-0-image-a-61_1702340990275.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Everton have been praised for their response to rival fans&#8217;
