Everton fans who have marched in protest against the running of the club plan to rally in support of the players ahead of the game with Newcastle United.
A pre-match demonstration has been held before each home match for two months as supporters groups have urged for changes to be made at the top of the club. Organisers are now planning a temporary halt to the march up Spellow Lane and are urging those who take part to instead get behind a player welcome designed to show the squad the scale of the backing they have as they fight for Premier League survival.
The new approach forms part of the response by fan groups to a statement issued by Bill Kenwright on Friday night. A number of comments in reply to that letter from the Everton chairman were released on Sunday night as part of a co-ordinated campaign by a supporter movement operating under the banner of All Together Now.
