Old Everton Pictures

...I saw him once standing alone on the lawn near the finishing line at Newmarket’s July Course. Can’t remember exactly when it was, perhaps 20 or so years ago. I spoke to him, and told him how much he meant to me as a kid growing up supporting Everton.

He said thanks, but I wish i’d told him about the night we won the league in 1970. After the game I was in Everton Supporters Club on City Road with my Dad when Alan Ball snr came up and put his son’s winners medal in my hand. Just a nice thought thinking he gave the medal to his father immediately after receiving it.

Everton v Manchester United Football League North War League Season 1943-44
Description: Club's would play each other home and away in corresponding weeks so once they played that was it for the season, unless drawn in any Cup Competitions. The week earlier at Maine Road United beat Everton 4-1 but this return match 7 days later saw United go to Goodison and 7 were scored, but United only got the one!. United only lost 5 more times but this Everton battering was the biggest defeat. United hit 6 3 times that season but their biggest win was 9-0 v Burnley at Maine Road.

Not a photo, but relevant to fans "of a certain age". I obtained a copy of a book only published this week " Money Cant But us Love - Everton in the 60s" by Gavin Buckland. If the rest of the book follows the standard of the first chapter then I can't recommend it enough. Give it a try.

...I think Gavin was Everton’s Official historian for a while, not sure if he still is. I think his day job was in the Civil Service.

I got my copy this week but it has been wrapped up as a birthday present for myself so I will have to wait till the end of the month.
I also bought myself dvds of Fawlty Towers, the Royle family, the Office and Benidorm. All wrapped up as well
