During the 2001–02 English football season, Everton competed in the FA Premier League.

Season summary

The Everton directors finally lost patience with Walter Smith when they sacked him on 13 March. Preston boss David Moyes was named as his successor, and did a good job of steering Everton clear of the drop zone – though they finished 15th in the table.

Kit

Everton retained the previous season's kit, manufactured by Puma and sponsored by one2one.[2]
