EFC managers seen live

[degsy]

As we embark on our search for the next manager at goodison, I was wondering where I stand in the general population of this forum, in terms of the number of managers' teams we've seen play at Everton in person.
I was born in 78 but didn't get to my first game until Harvey's spell in the late 80s

So the managers I've seen are

Harvey
HK 2
Walker
Royle
HK 3
Smith
Moyes
Martinez
Koeman
+ Dave Watson as caretaker.


So 10 in all.. Makes me feel quite old. As the number is growing quickly!

Of all, the one I look back most fondly on is Royle.

Who's got the most?

I can go back to Carey, but I know some will go back 3 or 4 before him.

Me....76 and counting..so close to 70 years since my first game.......the first 50 years are the hardest......

I was up in Lytham St Anne's a couple of years back when a distinguished old man and ( presumably) his wife walked past and smiled and nodded.

Jokingly,after he passed, I said to my mate who lives up there that that guy looked like an old Gordon Lee!

"That's because he is an old Gordon Lee!" he said." He lives up here and is often seen walking about the town"

I was well chuffed!

I checked on Wikipedia
Not saying I trust it mind

Ok. He was not on the Wikipedia list I saw but as you say it is not 100% info on there either way.

 

[toffeemax]

Smith
Moyes
Martinez
Koeman
Unsworth

Probably a few more when I was younger that I can’t remember. Royle 99% sure

Yes that's where the taxi shout stems from, like you say, times changed.

Heres an article and players gentleman John Carey - who as discussed was sacked in the back of a taxi! - name the players!

The almost man was Gordon - the fans raved about Moyes - but this guy played good free scoring football!

1939-to 1948 Theo Kelly who upset most players - Dean - Mercer and the great TG JONES !
must have been trained by Koeman!
