Can you post the link for that Littlewoods clock story please @Joey66 ?
That just links to the last photo you posted mate
They clocked goal times at Goodison for almost two decades, advised supporters of the best times to pop down for a pie and a pint – and occasionally provided a precarious vantage point to witness trophy parades.That just links to the last photo you posted mate
And last week we asked if any of you knew what had become of them?
We were talking about the Littlewood’s clocks that used to be housed in opposite corners of Goodison Park.
And of course you knew.
ECHO readers know everything.

Your replies even threw up the possibility that one may still survive – not all that far from where it was originally housed.
But first, the fate of the Park End Clock, as told by Natalie Morris, 32, who has some unsettling news for Evertonians.
Natalie reveals that the iconic Goodison timepiece’s final resting place was … on Anfield Road!
Natalie explains: “I have some information about the clocks, this is how the story goes:
“It was summer of 1985. My Dad (Bill or William Morris) was working for Ronwyn Engineering who were based off Walton Road at the back of the Springfield pub. They had a job at Goodison to strip down both of the clocks.

“Once back at the workshop my Dad asked permission if he could take the Park End clock home.
“With the two managers being Liverpool supporters they agreed that it was OK.
“He tied the clock to the van and took it home to Anfield Road. The clock measured 6ft x 6ft.
“His idea was to get it into his bedroom, he managed to get it through the front door and up the stairs, but couldn’t get it round the corner to his bedroom.
“So the clock was stored in the yard for about a week, until one night the wind blew it over and it broke into a few pieces.
“The only thing that remains of the Park End clock is the metal fingers, which are now with my uncle (Stephen Flynn) who collects football memorabilia so are in good hands!
“The clock from the Gwladys Street End of the ground was left at the workshop.
