I doubt I'll ever play again, too much of a hot head I'll injure someone or more likely (at my age) myself.My old fella hung his boots up after that in shame lol I can't talk I haven't played for ten years and am 54 now but ended up playing in a Charity tournament last summer for the Walton Centre,nice "friendly" little tourney was the story I got sold,I didn't realise half our team were semi pro's in the National League,we ended up playing a team in the final with Ged Brannan ex-Tranmere and our own Gareth Farrelly,on more than one occasion I tried to "run" onto a through ball and while my mind knew where my legs wanted to go,the old legs weren't in tune with the mind, hence I ended up flat on my face on more than one occasion, the glory days have gonelolaaaaaah well I suppose my hero Terry would have been proudlollollol
I saw nearly all those players, can’t recall Edwards at outside left, and not sure about Gorrie at centre half, loved David Boner at outside right, Scottish kid, a proper tanner ball player. Was Gorrie’s Christian name David?the classic 2-3-5 - shame you never see it these days

....you must be very proud, @ManxBrian and @Joey66 are the authority on old pictures. 1959-62, he must have been very decent and played with a few Everton greats.
Where in Liverpool was your Dad from?
