TWEETS: Everton fan has to ask club for a job after celebration of United win got him sacked

Not the strongest application

Darragh Murphy

You know that you love your football team when you celebrate to the point of unemployment.

That was the case of unfortunate Matthew Mills (not the Bolton player) after he went past the point of no return with the post-game pinting on Sunday.

He was paying tribute to Everton’s 3-0 thrashing of Manchester United earlier that afternoon but had one shandy too many and woke up to the terrible news that his services were no longer required at work.

Not one to wilt under adversity, Matty got straight onto the Toffees in the hope that he’d be given a job at Goodison Park.

To be fair, he doesn’t seem like your standard fly-in fan. He cares quite a bit about Roberto Martinez’s side.

The club have yet to respond but assistant manager Graeme Jones would want to watch his back.
