It was great also seeing him go in with the fans to the 2009 semi iirc with his sprog in an Everton kit!! He had left us by then. A little bit of Everton certainly touched him.

Yup, remember reading about people saying when he and his lad were walking into the ground a whole bunch of Blues were singing 'theres only one Andy Johnson' and his lad was completely made up.

Yakubu has joined Coventry. Apparently he's still only 34. Genuinely would have thought he'd be in his 40's by now!

I think the Yak was originally 34 in the same year as I was - I'm 51 this year ?????????????????????????

Of course he is.

A Nigerian friend of my former housemate told us that school kids will go for trials at 16, and if they don't get picked, will forge their birth certificates, resit the year and try again, and repeat several times. It's very common, and many players are significantly older then they claim to be.The Yak is easily in his 40s.

What happened to Barry Horne?

He played in the 1995 final and was a tough tackler.

Yakubu was playing Champions League football for Maccabi Haifa in the '90s. I reckon he could easily be 45.

I remember bragging my way in to goodison when Joe used to do that at Everton. Lost 3-0 to Ipswich at home. Awful times.
