This evening brings horrible news from Merseyside as reports have emerged of an Everton supporter passing away following a suspected heart attack at Goodison Park.

A 51-year-old man sat in the Park End Stand underwent treatment during the second half of Everton's 1-0 victory over Stoke on Saturday afternoon. He was transported to Aintree University Hospital where, according to the Liverpool Echo, he tragically passed away. The man's fellow supporters were quick to offer up their thoughts and messages for a fan that was taken too soon. https://twitter.com/EllieGeorginaM/status/769597790120882176 https://twitter.com/julenaltube/status/769599781836587009 https://twitter.com/Hawko1878/status/769603778702082048 https://twitter.com/lizlong2003/status/769604905690624001 https://twitter.com/danielvane/status/769605042475245568 https://twitter.com/sidneykidney4/status/769605453621985281 https://twitter.com/RobbieCarney80/status/769606038140092416 https://twitter.com/alanoafc1903/status/769606651439673345 https://twitter.com/RichieEmery10/status/769606715327258624 https://twitter.com/DannyScott92/status/769606892167565314 https://twitter.com/BenFletcher_/status/769608116304486400 https://twitter.com/KBURKE1878/status/769608325898067968 https://twitter.com/coldowney/status/769608466507988993 https://twitter.com/JDunnWilson/status/769606210681237504 Massive Dublin v Kerry preview in the latest GAA Hour.
