Isn't it the final of the Liverpool Senior Cup - St John's debut for them when he scored 3.
Match report from the Echo - biased even then.
Yes spot on

Quite right I was mixing up the line ups with the game played in Oct 1957 Everton won that game 2-0
Thomas scored both goals 58,711
I asked my older brother if he went to this game & he did with my late father they were in the park end he stated it was a great game & St John looked a good player for them as he was .... I noticed on the team sheet, a certain Johnny Morrissey was playing for the reds .....
The big laugh was the reds at the game were raving about St john & my late father shouted to them, but you still got beaten lol
The Fans loved this little pocket gem as hard as nails - Roy Vernon stated he would have hated to play v him box to box midfielder - The Catt stated in the 1970s my big mistake was selling him 2 seasons too soon & to Leeds of ll teams ...
