I hope the Everton game turns out to be true, set a decent price for tickets and pack the place out, give the fans a bit of a glamour home friendly and the players a chance to test themselves against quality oppostion. Everton had an incredible end to the season, losing only 2 of their final 18 games.

Barclays Premier League giants Everton will travel to Fir Park on Saturday 21st July as fitting opponents for Stevie Hammell’s Testimonial match.

 

The game will kick-off a year of activities for the 30-year old former Scotland International who has played an incredible 426 games in Claret and Amber. 368 of those appearances have come in the Scottish Premier League – the highest of any player since the competition started in 1998.

 

The stature of the opponent reflects Hammell’s contribution to the club.

 

The Goodison Park club last played at Fir Park back in 2005 – when a certain James McFadden captained the Toffees in what was a somewhat uneventful 0-0 draw.

 

David Moyes has guided his side to success on an almost years basis, cementing the club as almost perennial qualifiers for European competitions, including an appearances in the UEFA Champions League and several in the UEFA Cup/Europa League.

 

They finished seventh last year; just one position out of the qualification places, but have a raft of world class talent at their disposal such as Phil Jagielka, Leighton Baines, Tim Cahill, Marouane Fellaini and Phil Neville.

 

Ticketing information and kick-off times have yet to be confirmed but will be announced in due course.

So far our pre-season looks like this;

 

Ayr United vs Motherwell - Saturday, July 14th

Raith Rovers vs Motherwell - Tuesday, July 17th

Motherwell vs Everton - Saturday, July 21st

Hamilton vs Motherwell - Tuesday, July 24th

 

With the 1st leg of our Champions League qualifier ( :thumbup: ) coming up on the Tuesday or Wednesday following the Accies game let's hope they don't boot fuck out of us too much.
