Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[Barnfred 55]

Since I’m a newbie when it comes to following the Blues then I would have to say my best Everton moment was this summer at the Florida Cup where I got to watch us winning our first tournament in ages lol What made it more memorable was that we beat a Colombian team and that I actually got to see James playing for Everton. What was definitely no memorable about this moment was our lack of enthusiasm receiving the trophy But the players were pardoned given their lack of experience winning awards.

Night Messy. It was great to hear from you today. Have a peaceful night. Night all.

 

[NeroCeasar]

Evening hope you are OK @Barnfred 55. I'm very poorly but I'm plodding on the best I can. We are all here for each other and I hope you can feel the love of this forum. I'm still defiant and I hope I can beat the odds.

Good to hear from you Messy, keep fighting and we will keep this thread ticking over until your well enough to join us again

Sassy. I'm jealous.

I’m jealous that you have gotten to go to Goodison so we are even

Just a thought. Maybe give Messy a boost. All you Everton fans, tell us your best Everton moments. Paul Rideout isn't allowed by the way. Haha

Julys always my favour time as an Evertonian. Goodnight reedy pass our love to @messymascot. Good night and God bless everyone.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

Good night @messymascot. May you have a better day tomorrow. Xx

Morning everyone else .

This is where I show my age but I don’t Mind .
So favourite moment , I’m not sure I can do it it feels like it had to be a list !

The ones that will always take some beating are When we won the cup in 84 , when psycho pat won the league at Carrow road and I’ll book end it with the 95 cup win . How can I choose between them ? Bayern Munich , sharpie even super kev at anfield and Rotterdam all shouldn’t be missed out and for family reasons when Duncan scored against United was extra special and who can forget winning the league at goodison against QPR . Staying up against Wimbledon was an incredible feeling , a last second reprieve. I’m not sure I can ever verbalise The ones that will always take some beating are When we won the cup in 84 , when psycho pat won the league at Carrow road and I’ll book end it with the 95 cup win .

I’m not sure I can ever verbalise how that felt , after those hidings away to Blackburn , Leeds and somewhere in London . The journeys back I thought we were done .

Just writing them I feel privileged and I know just how lucky I am . I suppose If I can’t do a list my favourite memory will probably always be 84 cup final as it was the start of something great , something special but I swear I’m not sure I’d swap a moment of those days for a large lump Of cash and that’s not hyperbole I’m completely serious . how that felt , after those hidings away to Blackburn , Leeds and somewhere in London . On The journeys back home I really thought we were done .

I think when we won the league in 1970 ,if I remember we were 10 points behind Leeds at Christmas and won by 10 points and that was 2 points for a win time Any game with Bally was special for me .
I too feel priveliged to have seen a lot of trophies come our way .
So many choose the bayern or Rapid vienna games and I do have them up there along with any win over those who cannot be named .

 

[blue1948]

Hmmm tough one. My first visit to Goodison. FA Cup match v Fulham in 1975. We lost unexpectedly. Fulham got beat in the Final by West Ham.
The 1984 FA Cup final. Just the best day ever.
Then a few years ago, just after I took redundancy from my previous job my finances and Everton's participation in Europe collided favourably so my son and I went to European away match. A long held ambition of mine. We went to Bern to watch Everton v Young Boys. We won, Lukaku was amazing. The outstanding memory was being in Burger King post match and all you could hear were Scouse accents! Brilliant.

Good morning Messy. I hope you had a restful night and are feeling a little better. Nowt much happening here. Last minute offer of overtime so here I am, money grabbing cow, working away! Wishing you a lovely day x

I hope you can take comfort knowing that Messy will have probably fallen asleep reading that mate?

Enjoy the rest of your break. Hope it's sunny there.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Morning Messy. Hope you had a peaceful night. If you're upto it why don't you let us know your favourite Everton moment.

Morning everyone else. Enjoy your weekend. At least Everton can't spoil this one for us.

I'm struggling but I think the first time I watched Everton live was away to Bolton in the late 70s, possibly 1980.
Boxing day and the game was abandoned at half time due to heavy snow.
It was 1-1, scorers were two great players, Frank Worthington and Bob Latchford.

I had my Everton hat and scarf on, but my step dad had us in with the home fans and we walked round to the railings dividing the Everton supporters as so I could stand close with them.

Got pelted with snowballs from Everton fans laughing their socks off!
