The Dead Thread

RIP - Viv Busby

Everyone at Everton Football Club is saddened to learn of the passing of our former coach Viv Busby.

Viv, along with Adrian Heath, was part of Howard Kendall’s management team during the Blues legend’s third spell in charge at Goodison Park in 1997/98.

The pair had previously worked together at Sheffield United and had been playing teammates at Stoke City and Blackburn Rovers.
Is that the same fella who played for Fulham, and scored two against us in the F.A. Cup at Goodison in 1975 ?
 


As well as being a legendary filmmaker in his own right, he gave a start to some of the most important directors in modern cinema.
He had just three rules for agreeing to produce a film:

One: deny any request for more money.
Two: deny any request to make the film longer.
And three: there must be a strip club scene or an exploding helicopter.
