Everton supporters have been accused of causing several thousand pounds worth of damage to Anfield during Sunday’s Merseyside derby defeat that kept Frank Lampard’s team in the bottom three.
Pictures and video posted online showed significant damage to bathrooms in the away end and a number of television screens smashed on the concourse. One video showed the ceilings above a section of urinals smashed, while a monitor displaying food and drink menus in addition to another broadcasting Sky Sports News were shattered. Mirror Football understands that both Liverpool and Everton are liasing around the incident. Merseyside Police have not replied to a request for comment.
Online rumours of a supporter being stabbed outside the ground Sunday evening were false. "Aware of a few posts on social media. I can confirm there was no stabbing incident in Stanley Park after today's game," confirmed the officer in charge of Merseyside Police's Everton account on Twitter.
