Everyone loves fans cleaning up after themselves
There were plenty of stories during the World Cup last summer of supporters being extremely nice and doing some cleaning post-game, most notably Senegal supporters, who cleared litter away from the Spartak Stadium after their 2-1 win over Poland.

But that was the World Cup, a festival of football and joy where each of us put aside our partisanship to just have a good time for a month. Surely, now that we’re a decent chunk into the domestic season all of that sort of kindness and selflessness is a thing of the past.
Well, if you thought that, you’d be wrong, and it’s all thanks to one Yeovil Town fan.
Yeovil were away to Morecambe Town on Saturday, a match which they lost 2-1 at the Globe Arena and leaves them in 14th place in League Two.
Now usually after a defeat such as this the away fans would want to leave the stadium as soon as possible, but one Yeovil Town decided to do something extremely nice and – instead of heading for the exit door – cleaned up the entire away end.
Morecambe took to Twitter to thank the fan – whose identity has not been made public – for doing the clean up, and a number of Morecambe fans also showed their appreciation.
Big thanks to the @YTFC supporter who went round after the game and picked up all the litter from the away section. 👏👏👏
