That was the Team I really started to watch . 16 years Old and soon making my First trip to Wembley. Great players watching every week. Happy Times with a little bit of heartache. EFC forever.

…I’ve mentioned on here that he managed a team I played for back in the 70s.

I’d played a bit as a youngster so my parents were far from star struck, but they knew Dave rang every Friday night and they raced to the phone to answer it first so they could chat with him.

He was a very quiet and modest man but he was nuts when a ball was introduced into training. In winter we used the lights on concrete tennis courts for a game and he would genuinely dive full length if he had a chance of scoring. i remember his ankles were huge, surely from the physicality of the game when he played.

My abiding memory was when he asked me to play in a Charity game with former Everton greats. It was a Sunday at Crawford club in Wavertree, I got changed and went out to warm up with Derek Temple. Those blokes were still so enthusiastic to play.

Thanks Dave.

Here is the same goal seconds earlier.

On second thoughts your photo may be the MICK Lyons goal, same game judging by the position of Joe Harper in both photos. Still a great photo, thanks for posting.
