Tim Howard bids emotional farewell to people's club Everton

Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard has sent an emotional farewell message to the club's fans as he prepares to bring down the curtain on his Goodison Park career on Sunday.

Howard, 37, has been at the Merseyside club for almost 10 years and will now return to his native United States to play for Colorado Rapids.

He makes his final Everton appearance at home to Norwich City and thanked supporters, his former managers David Moyes and Roberto Martinez, along with chairman Bill Kenwright, as he prepared to bow out.

EVERTON, you have become a part of my soul.
