The Everton kit man was forced to make a trip to Sports Direct last week after new manager Sean Dyche realised the club did not have enough pairs of socks for training.
Jamie Carragher has described the Toffees as the "worst run club in the country" and the Liverpool legend might have a point after this latest tale was unearthed from their Finch Farm training ground. Yet the incident did not disrupt Everton's preparations too much.
Dyche's new side recorded a shock 1-0 win against Premier League Arsenal during his first game in charge on Saturday afternoon. It is their first league victory since October and they are now level on points with Leeds in 17th, easing their relegation fears.
