Old Everton Pictures

[Eggs]

Question for Reidy's bottle O,G is Heslop who's in that ty-phoo pic did he once play for city.

...George Heslop did play for City. I seem to recall him playing against us for City en route to '66 final but might have that wrong.

My fave Everton pic ever:

I have a postcard with that on, they were giving them away in Barclays.

My favourite out of all those is the three trophies on the pitch at the Charity Shield in season 66-67. Roger b*****y Hunt, but still a once-in-a-lifetime experience for a 10 year old to see those being paraded before kick off. I've never forgotten it.

Also love that old Villa programme with the uncovered Witton End.

In that era, I collected Typhoo Tea cards. Once you'd got enough you could send off for a colour photo of your team. I've still got mine with West, Wilson, Labone, Scott etc at GP. If I can work out how to upload it, I'll scan it in and post it.

Plus my world cup final ticket signed by Alan Ball himself. Might be worth a bob or two don't you think?

...I was at that Charity Shield game and it is a vivid memory seeing Labone (FA Cup), Yardog Yeats (Championship) and Wilson/Hunt with Jules Rimet. Great to have been there. If memory serves me right, Hunt scored a 20 yarder past Gordon West at Gwladys St end and we lost 1-0. I can't match your World Cup Final ticket, but I did get to touch Ballys 1970 Championship medal courtesy of his Dad who visited the Supporters Club in City Road. Happy days.

Not sure I should be grateful for that memory RBG. My little head is somewhere in that pic of the GSE as a very young David Johnson fired in the equaliser. Not our best night in Europe.

Should have won that game by 4 or 5. Missed chance after chance and hit the woodwork a few times. Wasn't our goal scored in the last minute?

...amazing how things change, just looking at the number of blokes wearing caps/hats in that crowd picture.

Reidy, I have a large collection, many I've used for backgrounds for the various pages of my site so if you can look past that, and just take them for what they are you might like them. You'll not find them from simply searches. If you want anything without the descriptions etc drop me a line and I'll root some out for you, as I think you'll enjoy them.

I don't mind mate, so long as D/D don't mind your sites name on them ?

There's been a 'thing' made about Bainsey being at the Mexico '70 World Cup, the guy never ages ffs, he's on the back row in this one, obviously during the original Movember.

Yep. And we should have won by 10!!!! Lost count of how many headers big joe missed. Jimmy husband in form of his life crocked in first few minutes, blatantly cheated out of away leg. Panathanikos had 1 chance atGP and scored it.
Away leg was on a Wednesday afternoon while still at school 3days later we lost to RS in FA semi having led at half time. We never recovered and an awful era began.
Back to therapy for me!!
