Why not just talk about our history>?? Not like we dont have any ourselves. Its better than 90% of clubs in Europe.
I will happily talk to anyone about Everton Fc and our history - i LOVE talking about it.
is rice...i was talking about our history to an older Evertonian I met just last night. Interesting character, been sleeping on the streets or in squat communities in half-a-dozen different European countries since he was last at Goodison (a 0-0 vs Man Utd in '85 or so). Tells me Paris was the worst, street sleepers would get carted off in a van by the constables, taken to an almost prison-like horrible building to 'recuperate'. South of France was the best according to him, full of artisans and musicians looking after each other.
We got talking about how we've had two Alex Youngs in our history, and how Alan Ball really was the world's best player for a couple of years. He showed me his Everton top which had the tower in full glory right in the middle of the shirt, no sponser name. Not familiar with that one, not sure if it was ever an official top. We also talked a little about Tony Kay, Treblicock and Brian Labone, and had some banter about how he's forgotten the exact years when we've won the FA Cup (he's had an epic life, so easily forgiven).
Later in the evening, when home relaxing with a Yorkshire Tea, my lady was curious who the two lids in my profile photo were. So more history was shared.
