Football Match!

On Saturday me and the boys attended our first ever football match! Jacob has an hour once a week football coaching at nursery provided by Preston North End football club and we were lucky enough to be given tickets for their pre season friendly on Saturday against Everton.

Could not resist this photo!

It looks like the ground was nearly empty, but it was just this stand that was! We sat in the family area and only a few rows from the front too so we had a really good view.

Number 8 Everton player was Jacob's favourite because he had orange hair.... Everton played in blue and in the second half Samuel asked if it was France playing.....

It was a good close first half, but it seems that PNE had gone home in the second as they let 3 goals in - PNE 0, Everton 3.

Jacob was fascinated by the game and I found myself trying to explain substitutes and why one went off injured and what the players did at half time (toilet, sit down and an orange).

Jacob was also quite taken with the mascot and he wanted his photo taken with him, but at full time he was no-where to be seen!
