Belated "hello all" on a happy occasion

Bienvenido, Leo!

Welcome it's a marvellous place, and this weekend was extra special

 

[Methuselah]

Welcome in. Look forward to your posts. I had an Uncle Charlie who was a great influencer in my growing up years in Liverpool. Everyone should have an Uncle Charlie.
It was our Uncle Charlie that influenced us to go down to Goodison one Sunday morning to ask for a trial. I was 13 and my brother 14. We didn't get our trial but at least we made the effort!

 

[Old Blue 2]

Name (some old school mates might recognise it), and erm neither of those. Yikes.

Don't worry, he's an Eagles fan (the band, not Palace!).

He's 'Already gone' because he can 'see the stars but still not see the light'.

Welcome to the forum Leo.

Hopefully we can tempt you into posting regularly, especially if you make it a habit of posting after we beat one of the so called “top six” clubs

Btw have you a favourite pizza topping?

Hello all. Grand Old Team admins have sent me a few reminders that I haven’t made an introductory post yet, and this weekend seemed the ideal time to do it, so here goes.

Despite my screen name, I haven’t lived in Maghull for a long while – initially moving to Sheffield for university, and later to London for work, which is where I live now. West Ham is my nearest ground. Under normal virus-free circumstances I’d get to around ten games per season home and away.

I’m a third generation Evertonian – my Great Uncle Charlie took my dad and uncles to Goodison from their home in Bootle, and so dad took me and my brothers. They were fans all the way back to Dixie Dean’s time, and Andy King’s screamer into the Park End in ’78 was the perfect 18th birthday present for me. School meant St Gregory’s Primary in Lydiate, then Maricourt. I have family in Leicestershire (who followed a similar migration path to mine) and I’m looking forward to seeing many of you at Bramley Moore in due course.

I’m more of a reader than a poster to message boards, but sticking it to the reds at the cabbage field was too good an occasion to pass up to say hello. My brother pointed me towards GOT, my all-time favourite player is hard to narrow down – maybe Kevin Sheedy – but I modelled myself on Jimmy Husband as a player. Current favourite will have to be Richy this weekend!

COYB.

Ha ha. Wasn't it "yoiks, scoob" or "jinkies" from Velma?

Goigling pucs I think I nearly chose the very same one as you.

No regular fave, but usually something meaty and spicy. I don't turn my nose up at Hawaiian, which is the controversial one surely?

Yep, commonly known as Pineapple on Pizza here and as a member of Team PoP am delighted to hear you have enlightened taste buds
