Nine Decades of following the Blues!

[Robert Jarvis]

All the best, my Dad when he was alive used to speak of those same players.

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

80 years as an Evertonian deserves all our best wishes

[Neiler]

All the best Td sr!

Happy birthday TD snr. He must have some fantastic memories. I hope we all live to see the RS wallowing in the lower leagues again.

And, unlike most of us here he remembers when The RS really were a poor 2nd Division outfit

So, whilst we all feel disappointed after Saturday at least I've found something to cheer me up today.

My great grandad would agree with him...and then hit anyone who didn't.

Happy B'day to TD Snr...

Thanks for all the sincere wishes. I will certainly pass them on to him later in the week when he comes back from a mini-break in Dublin!

Mate , all the best to your Da' .
Me Nanna died in 2008 , aged 95 . She went the game - season ticket holder - until her late 80's . Uny stopped cause she couldn't get up the Bullens Rd stairs .
I'm proud as fuk of her .
She loved Dixie , but Warney Cresswell , and later , T.G. , were her early fav's .
Bally asked to speak to her when he called me .
Respect to your arl fella .

I missed this so apologies but I hope he had a good 1.

That's amazing to hear, he's clearly a special man, if I'd been wearing a hat I'd have took it off for him

[Upper Sturry Sherbets]

Quite a statistic here.

Only thirty or so for me, got some catching up do then.
