Old Everton Pictures

Bally - performances in the 1966 World Cup winning England team attracted the attention of a number of clubs bigger than Blackpool. He was eventually sold to Everton for a fee of £112,000 in August 1966, at the time a record transfer fee paid to an English club - The Catt stated he would never accept £500,000 9 months after the 1970 World Cup he sold him for £220,000?????

That's the guy. I could be wrong but I believe that he scored twice against us in that friendly. I was only about ten at the time. And vaguely remember reading about that in one of those football magazines.. But again I could be wrong that he actually scored.

Match report from one of my scrap books that survived my many house moves, plus three of the goals. I have never been sure but I think that is me just behind the guy leaning forward behind the goal as the Blues score their third.

Great report. Melledew scored one goal then. I always thought it was two.
You were real close up to the action if that is you.
I suppose every team is allowed a bad game now and again. Even the school of science. But they got everything ironed out for that upcoming season. Great stuff.

Everton's first ever FA Cup final winning goalscorer was born on this day in 1880. Alex 'Sandy' Young - if they'd have made a film about his life, Leonard Rossiter would have been a shoe-in to play him...

Good little footballer Robinson. One of the many tried in the FB positions who were discarded relatively quickly.
