Note the misprint of the wrong year!
....if my memory is right one of the Wednesday defenders is Don Megson, father of Gary Megson. Indeed, he was skipper and was the first to lead his losing team on a lap of honour.
Yes spot on the fact they were 2-0 up - and our magical comeback, that final goal the winner was it Megson who stood on the ball to let Temple run in from the half way line he took his goal with aplomb v a very good keeper!
Such a memorable day my older brother was there as a teenager I was at home watching it in black and white with my EFC kit on, crying when we were 2-0 down- crying when we won with joy!
I agree with that, as a sore point when EFC returned from the 1986 cup final tour I was at the rocket to greet the team bus, and a word got around that a reserve Blues player was in the crowd I got to him in a mass of fans non other than Alan Whittle - I got hi autograph on a price of note paper lost it on the bus when paying the conductor going home as a lad- bah!
If my memory is correct her put his ciggie out to sign it!

First day cover of the Everton locomotive. Frank Hornby was MP for Everton in the 1930´s and a model train was produced :
....I actually went with my folks. I was 9 and a regular at Goodison but they left me with family in Thornton Heath, Croydon, whilst they were at the match. To this day I can't understand why I didn't go. Never mind, went in 68 and afterwards.
It was Gerry young who stood on the ball I think? Just remembered hope I am correct!
