Everton FC fans ‘appalled’ by homophobic comments in response to team's new kit

Everton FC fans have spoken out after the team's social media accounts were recently flooded with homophobic comments.

Taking to Twitter and Instagram, the Premier League football team revealed their 2022/23 hummel away kit, which happened to be in the colour pink. The kit pays tribute to Prince Rupert’s Tower “with a modern twist,” according to the Everton FC website.

The away shirt, in an “eye-catching rosebloom pink, features a distinctive, patriot blue pattern inspired by the angled roof of the tower in the Club crest - and amplified into a cool geometric print for 2022.” It is complemented by a tonal Club crest and a round, patriot blue neckline, with pink trim and block sleeves.
