Started to read it so far fascinating, talking to0 players who were not big stars, or did not get the acclaim they deserved imo, but I could remember them - the Bally interview with his daughter I admit I shed a tar or two
its VFM many many players interviewed and a great write up about you my hero Joe Royle
I still have an age to go the book is that condensed well done!

I've raised so far just over £500 for the former players foundation. Come on blues, anybody not bought one, please do.

Played mate. Lads, Christmas is just round the corner. Anyone with a Dad aged 60 plus will absolutely love it. My old man, (81), just grinned when he scrolled down the names in the index.

And unlike some football books, it is a substantial tomb.

Just finished reading this. Loved it. A feel good book for any Evertonian. Very easy to dip in and out of. I read about my favourite players first (Bob Latchford, Mick Lyons and Joe Royle)and then the rest.

Looking forward to Volume 2!

Finished the book today and thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to all Evertonians. Interesting how a lot of the players mention the same names, Colin Harvey stands out - in a good way. They all speak highly of the club and come across extremely honest about their time in the game.
Also, for a statto like me the games played etc was right up my street.
Many thanks @alan ball and can't wait for volume 2.
