A 59-YEAR-OLD football supporter claims he was kicked out of Wembley for “being an Everton fan”

Kevin McParland has vowed to take legal action against the stadium after he was dragged from the venue by two security guards.

At half-time, the Wallasey man left his seat and belongings in N Block 124 to go to the toilet and walked out onto the mixed concourse.

He said: “I found my way blocked by two security guards who confronted me and told me, ‘you can’t go there.’

“I presumed the toilets must be out of order, but they added, ‘You’ll have to go out of the stadium.’

“When I asked, ‘Why?’, they replied, ‘You’re an Evertonian’. “They put both arms behind my back, and frogmarched me to the exit in a humiliating manner.

“They tried to insinuate I had been drinking which was untrue because I am a diabetic and drink very little.’’

Dumped outside, Mr McParland’s glasses, train tickets and medication were on his seat.

He plans to take legal action.
