Just out of interest, perhpas some one like Joey will know.

How many players have switched from our neighbours to us and how have made the awful decision to go the other way? Just thinking of the Alan Ball comment.
 

And I think the mass of curly hair above Derek Mountfield is Mick Lyons? Narrow one nil win? Andy Gray when we were already champions?
It was the Saturday before Qpr, raining all day, took 3 hours on the special but worth it to see the best goal keeping performance I've ever seen. Certain goals he somehow kept out, the difference between then and now.

Switching sides - "Crossing the Park"

Despite the huge rivalry, Liverpool have completed more direct transfers with Everton than any other club. Famously, however, Liverpool did not buy directly from Everton between 1959 and 2000, while there was a similar "freeze" in the other direction between 1961 and 1982.

It is often mistakenly claimed that Dave Hickson is the only player to have played for "all three Merseyside clubs". In fact he is the third player, along with John Heydon and Frank Mitchell, to have played for all three Merseyside league clubs still in existence. But we should not forget New Brighton, Football league members from 1923–51, for whom Bill Lacey and Neil McBain played, both having also played for Everton and Liverpool.

And to complete a list of six players who have played for three different Merseyside clubs, John Whitehead also played for Bootle in their one year as a league team (1892-3), before they were replaced in Division 2 by local rivals Liverpool FC. The list below shows transfer dates and fees, where known.

Well done mate you are spot on. It was a bit of a struggle but it set up the Monday bank holiday celebration vs QPR. Got it clear in my mind now.
