So here we are. The last ever season at Goodison Park. After 132 years the long farewell now begins in earnest. It's going to be incredibly emotional indeed. Here we go...

Happy bonfire night, all! Stay safe, handle those sparklers with care, and don't go back to lit fireworks...
Championship action this Wednesday night as @Wrexham_AFC picked up a much needed, and deserved, 3 points by beating current league leaders @Boro at The Racecourse. Goals from Thomason (71) and Rathbone (84) gave The Dragons a 2-0 win (att: 10,532) #Groundhopping #Cymru 🏴 #Wales – at Wrexham, Wales
An historic occasion for @Latics_Women this afternoon with their first ever appearance in the @WomensFACup 1st Round proper. However they were well beaten 4-1 by @CLSTladies Women at Edge Hall Lane, which was the former home of @OrrellRUFC #Groundhopping 🏆 #RoadToWembley – at Wigan, England
A (free) programme was issued to mark this historic occasion which was a lovely surprise indeed @NLprogs @NonLeagueProgs

Replying to @BigDaveWHUFC
There were only 2 games in Britain in season 04-05 than finished 7-1.
Rangers V Dundee United and Man City V Barnsley.
The same two goalkeepers played in both games - Ronald Waterreus for Rangers and City, Nick Colgan for Dundee Utd and Barnsley.
2️⃣ - Thanks to a late kick off (due to a live broadcast) there was an opportunity of another game on the way back home north. Lovely stuff! So tonight, in a @CymruLeagues North encounter, @NewtownAFC beat @BTFCofficial77 2-0 at Latham Park (att: 264) #Groundhopping 🏴 #Wales – at Welshpool, Wales
1️⃣ - Into the (heads of the) valley this afternoon for an @FAWales Trophy 3rd Round clash between @AFC_Llwydcoed (@ArdalSouthern) & @ClwbCymric (@SWPLInfo) at the Welfare Ground. The visitors won 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 draw #Groundhopping #FAWAmateurTrophy #Cymru 🏴 #Wales – at Llwydcoed, Wales
A massive Flintshire Derby at Cae-y-Castell tonight with the first @CymruLeagues top flight meeting between @FlintTownFC & @HolywellTownFC in 30 years. The Silkmen continued their recent improvement under new manager Danny Holmes with a fantastic 5-0 win (att: 890) #Groundhopping – at Flint, Wales
Goals from James Garner (34) Hayden Hackney (45) & Thierno Barry (69) saw @Everton progress in the @Carabao_Cup at the expense of @NUFC. Dan Burn (89) scored a late consolation for The Magpies. The Toffees will now travel to face @FTFC in the Quarter Finals. FT: 3-1. Att: 51,894. – at Liverpool, England
A (belated) first visit of the season to The Deva where, in the @NL_Enterprise North, @ChesterFC came from behind to beat @MarineAFC 2-1 (att: 2,133). Simms (56) gave The Mariners the lead before The Seals came back to win with goals from Foley (69) and Abreu (81) #Groundhopping – at Chester, England
Change of sport today as I headed to the @Waterfront_Hall for the first session of the @WeAreWST Northern Ireland Open. Kyren Wilson leads Jak Jones 6-2 #NIopen #Snooker – at Belfast, Northern Ireland
My 2nd game of the day was a 6pm kick off at a windy Clandeboye Park where @BangorFC remain bottom of the @OfficialNIFL Premiership after losing to champions @LarneFC.

Unbelievably my planned double header went ahead. Yay! A 3pm kick off at Taylors Avenue saw @CarrickRangers and @LimavadyUtdFC draw 1-1 (att: 217) in the @OfficialNIFL Premiership. A stoppage time OG gave The Roesiders a point #Groundhopping #NorthernIreland #Carrickfergus – at Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland
In #NorthernIreland this weekend hoping that storm whatever doesn't scupper ones plans. It was GAME ON tonight at The Newry Showgrounds and, in an @OfficialNIFL Championship encounter between @NewryCityAFC and @NewingtonFC, The Swans won 2-0 (att: c250) #Groundhopping #Newry #FNF – at Newry, Northern Ireland
