Had a quick look on Everton results and could not see him scoring against them at Goodison.
He scored in a 1-0 win versus Spurs in October 1963....big crowd over 63,000..... Just a guess though.

When it rained cushions at the end of the game against Ipswich in '79 a certain Mr. Latchford lobbed one of them right back into the Main Stand. Cracking throw it was too. Said the fans were 'quick to forget'.My hero copped for many flying cushions,they were obviously meant for less accomplished performers such as Latch,Dobbo etc.lol
Always wondered where the cushion stories came from
They were the epitome of the pre-digital 'thumbs down' / 'neg rep' button. They didn't rain down too often, I mean the performance had to be seriously gash, then the sky would be filled with 1inch thick navy blue cushions flung from the main stand in the frisbee manner.
They were an all too tangible expression of displeasure that the powers that be could not Ignore.
one season they were there for hire, start of the next...they weren't...somebody on the board obviously seen their backside over it.
Before the 1966 cup final walk on the pitch -

I have a vague recollection of the being a slightly disapproving " you cushion throwers are very naughty boys" type message in the programme at the start of the season. Not 100% though. Best thing was the occasional request from the announcer to stop doing it.....just made people do it more!!! You scallies.... You know who you are !!!

Everton results says we did not play Bolton in December 1966. Bolton were relegated 1963-64 season.
We did play Fulham though....won 3-2, Temple scored 2.....crowd was just over 31k because the week before Christmas. Terrace looks a bit packed for that??

I could never climb over that wall - I remember the size of those walls to deter pitch invasions - the poor kids fetched in boxes - crates - even small pairs of step ladders just to see over the wall!lol
