Old Everton Pictures

Two great no (s honour another EFC great no 9 Alex Sandy Young at his graveside -

Alex Sandy Young as a player -
65837
 


....fabulous player, I think he played CF in the FA Youth Cup winning team.

I often think of John Hurst when considering the wealth of many modern day footballers who weren’t good enough to lace his boots.
They raved about John Stones - John Hurst was 3 times the player he was......he learnt alot of |Labby , but the amount of times he took the ball forwards and scored goals

What a team the 69/70 side were!
Oozing quality and class throughout
Oh I wish we could see them again today
A true team in every sense.
It makes me sad to compare our current bunch to them

...I genuinely have a picture in my mind of Tony Hibbert driving his Bentley past a bus stop and standing waiting with his bus pass is John Hurst. Never has football quality been so misrepresented.

To be fair Eggs however limited Tony was as a player, it is hardly his fault football can reward poor/average players so handsomely,I know Tony myself and he certainly doesn't purvey a "big time Charlie" image, quite a quiet, reserved lad in all honesty, but I get your point mate.:)
 
Hursty was a legend, a quiet, unassuming man who could score goals.
It used to confuse the life out of me because he wore number 10 but played at the back, in those days you wore the number of the position that you were playing.
