“Somethings never change, mate!!!!”

And MG got the accents correct, too! ??

Longest highlights - just over 11 minutes of them - of this 1962 derby that I've come across. We see, for example, both of our disallowed "goals" in the first few minutes. The Youtube website description:

A Bill Shankly inspired Liverpool are back in the First Division and over 70,000 turn up at Goodison for the first Merseyside derby in 11 years. As the teams line up the Z Cars theme can be heard on the tannoy. The Liverpool team caption lists "Bryne" at right back. The picture quality is not great and it's difficult to tell the teams apart in black and white - Liverpool have the short sleeve shirts with a prominent badge. Two Everton goals are disallowed in the first seven minutes to howls of derision from the home crowd. They then get a rather dubious penalty, which Roy Vernon scores (1-0). Liverpool equalise from close range through Kevin Lewis, deputising for the injured Ian St John (1-1). Half time. Johnny Morrissey regains the lead for Everton following a scramble in the box (2-1). Roger Hunt equalises from close range in last minute (2-2). "One of the most exciting matches I have ever seen" is the verdict of commentator Alan "by golly" Weeks. Everton went the whole season unbeaten at Goodison and won the League by six points.

Furnell was a rookie keeper the trainer who ran on a certain Bob paisley deliberately told him to act injured - they admitted years later nothing wrong with Vernon's goal, Furnell was a bag of nerves dropped the ball .... they had arrived to haunt us forever.....

The spin on that header was superb. Usually that would hit the post, rebound out, John Scales volleys it forward 80 yards, Jackson trips up over his own boot laces, ball bobbles through to Fowler who slots the 1st of 5 as we go on to lose 8-1.

12 minutes of highlights from our win at Wolves on 6 October 1962. The website description:

A shirt sleeved crowd at Molineux for this top of the table clash against the "Mersey Millionaires". Several good saves by Everton keeper Gordon West. Chances at both ends but goalless at half time. Everton take the lead after 60 minuts through a Billy Bingham far post header after good work from George Thomson and Johnny Morrissey (0-1). They score again with a neat finish from Alex Young following a great pass from Roy Vernon. "By golly this Everton forward line looks very good indeed" enthuses Alan Weeks. Final score 2-0 to Everton.

Now at Norwich, Neil Adams is the assistant sporting director (whatever that is) so amongst friends.

Hardly a classic match but Howard Kendall's second spell as manager ended on this day in 1993 when he resigned minutes after this 1-0 win over Southampton. I was one of the 13,000 (yes 13,000) who was there and being this was in the days before social media and mobile phones, it wasn't until I'd got home to find out HK had quit.
