Crystal Palace consider Everton travel decision after fireworks

Crystal Palace are reportedly considering flying up to Merseyside just hours before Thursday’s Premier League clash at Everton to avoid being disturbed by fireworks during the middle of the night, according to the Daily Mail.

Everton head into the game knowing a win would secure their survival and Palace officials are rumoured to have made various plans amid concerns that their sleep could be disrupted ahead of their fixture. They are worried about people setting off fireworks during the early hours of the morning. Recent home games at Goodison Park against Chelsea and Brentford saw the visiting teams preparations disturbed as fireworks exploded outside their hotels during the night.

The reports say that Palace officials have made various plans including a last minute accommodation change at an unknown location outside of Liverpool, rumoured to be in the Manchester area, while flying up on the day of the game is also an option.
