Andy Groom

Andy Groom was born in 1978. Encouraged by his family, Andy played football from an early age and accompanied his mum and dad to watch Everton play. As a youngster, Andy enjoyed drawing and would spend his school days doodling the Everton badge and sketching players. As a lifelong Everton fan, Andy has supported the team through good times and bad, making the journey to Goodison and beyond over the years, to witness the team’s triumphs and disappointments. Andy is also the author of 'England’s World Cup Story: From Winterbottom’s 1950 to Capello’s 2010' and 'The Illustrated Everton History', both published by Apex Publishing Ltd.
