Romelu Lukaku joined an elite Everton goalscorers’ club on Sunday when he neatly nodded his 50th league goal for the Blues.

The names on eEvertons post-War list of half-century scorers are familiar, even household - Graeme Sharp (who got there in 125 games), Bob Latchford (112), Alex Young and Alan Ball (both 109), Joe Royle (95) and Roy Vernon (79).So who exactly was Fred Pickering, a centre-forward who scored 50 league goals in only 76 matches for Everton Football Club but is sometimes unfairly overlooked when the club’s celebrated centre-forwards are named? Fred Boomer Pickering- who holds a unique record -
he scored two successive hat tricks at Goodison park in one week - a hat trick for Blackburn v us one week then on his Home debut at Goodison again scored a hat trick in a 6-0 win over Notts Forest on his debut.....for @edge & co
