My dad and is best friend had one ticket between them they tossed a coin dad lost the call
Little consolation they opened the gates last 10 minutes so he got to see princess Margaret
Present the cup to labby
My dads' brother who lived in London - mad Evertonian & his family could only get one ticket - my Dad had just started a new job & was working, so my elder brother aged 16 went to London to stay with them - in a small flat - & he joined three of them all to be placed in Wembley - my older brother was in the Wednesday supporters end .... They met up after the game, had a game of football & a pint .... he came home that evening by train ..... Jubilant, of course hes 74 now, hes watched the blues since he was 5 years old ....

He is having a named stone at the BMD .....
