Old Everton Pictures


Was having a clear-out earlier and found this photo down the back of an old cupboard. I took the pic way back in the days when we were good... 1984/85 Season I believe, a few days after the Bayern Munich game; no doubt someone can correct me on that. It's not the most exciting photo, and it's pretty scratched up, but as far as I can recall I've never uploaded it any place before, so should be the first time seen on here.

Norwich and that's a very young fit not fat Steve Bruce marking Gray.
 
cannot believe how empty the ground is, only days after beating Bayern Munich and a couple of weeks from being crowned champions
Around 30,000, mate. It was hard going money-wise for a lot of people in the 80s and that season we had a lot of games: with an ECWC Final and FA Cup Final to find the money for. A lot of supporters would sacrifice a few league matches in order to afford to go to the bigger games. We would forgo a proper meal and eat gravel and wood shavings just to save some money... but they were happier times.
