Billy Butler on the PA,every time we scored,"Lads,will you gerroff the pitch"(it was you allez mate wasn't it?lol)

Billy Butler and his sense of humour as Radio Merseyside DJ.

'THE emergency services were in a panic, the Radio Merseyside switchboard was jammed, and thousands of people were jumping in their cars and heading to Anfield.

Meanwhile, a relaxed Billy Butler was sitting in his Radio Merseyside studio and chuckling to himself, happy in the knowledge that he was responsible for the mayhem.

Because, just minutes before, the lifelong Evertonian DJ had announced live on air that 15 machines were fighting a massive blaze involving the stadium stands.

The station received complaints from Anfield and Merseyside Fire Brigade, and Billy was rapped over the knuckles. Once again a Billy Butler joke had backfired.'

Had to laugh

Always remember him telling the Altrincham fans at the mid 1970's cup game their tandem would be waiting for them after the gamelol

There was a game against the RS at goodison and the RS were in with a shout for the league, well at HT he announced that the RS rivals were 4-0 down at HT and a big roar from the Kopites until you could hear Billy Butler sniggering away over the tannoy IIRC

Can't remember the opposition, but I recall BB announcing that "you can arrest me anytime" as a rather curvy and attractive WPC walked along the Main Stand touch line at half time. Me and others in the paddock were howling as she blushed.

My favourite away end Wolves south bank Kop - the blues fans in there were at their noisiest!

I remember walking into the ground at street level then stood in awe at the back of the terrace not realising the pitch itself was sunken. What I also didn't realise was a group of Wolves fans approach from my left resulting in my first broken nose and fat lips.

1969 we beat City 1-0 joe is grounded -

A pivotal match that. Winning that just before Xmas I think, laid down a marker for the holiday fixtures.

What fans will do to see a game sitting on this pub at the old leeds ground set uplol

We won 2-1 that day.
Discretion was the better part of valour that afternoon as I got me and my mates off smartish as you could see the opposite end empty rapidly. The mid seventies was no place for the faint hearted travelling fan.
