Everton fans adore him, and they have every reason to. After 15 years at the club, Seamus Coleman has further endeared himself to supporters—not just at Goodison Park, but beyond—through an act that speaks volumes about his character. In a time when traditional values often seem lost or sidelined, the Everton captain proved that, above all, he is a compassionate human being.🤳 And here is the video from Seamus Coleman #️⃣ #EFC pic.twitter.com/1A8zaOiJni— BBC Sport Merseyside (@bbcmerseysport) December 7, 2024 After hearing that a young fan, 15-year-old Mackenzie Kinsella, had traveled nearly halfway around the world to watch the Merseyside Derby only for it to be postponed due to severe weather, Coleman decided to make things right. He invited Mackenzie to Everton’s training center to meet the players and spend time with them. The teenager, who had spent his entire savings to journey from Australia to England for the match, will also watch a training session and receive a special gift as a memento, thanks to the Irishman’s initiative. Considering the expenses for airfare, match tickets, accommodation, and other travel costs, the trip amounted to several thousand euros. While it remains to be seen if Coleman will cover those expenses, his gesture alone has already given Mackenzie memories to cherish for a lifetime.Storm Darragh postpones Everton – Liverpool derbyThis act also serves as a reminder to other footballers about the importance of fans. Coleman’s message is clear: football is played not just for money but for the people who dedicate their time, energy, and resources to support the game. Taking a moment for an autograph, a photo, or simply listening to a fan can make a world of difference. Coleman’s actions exemplify what it means to be a true role model.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 15Saturday Everton – Liverpool POSTPONEDAston Villa – Southampton 1-0 (1-0)/Duran 24/Brentford – Newcastle 4-2 (2-2)/Mbeumo 8, Wissa 28, Collins 56, Schade 90 – Isak 11, Barnes 32/Crystal Palace – Manchester City 2-2 (1-1)/Munoz 4, Lacroix 56 – Haaland 30, Lewis 68/Manchester United – Nott.
