Where/when is this? It's not Goodison Park's Leitch work. It's not Roker, either.

I see what you did there.

Level 2 and Level 3 bars in that application. Would that mean that post-match only Upper Stand south and East Stand club view GA supporters get that 1 hour grace inside the ground? I am South lower and if we can't access bars after the game then to be frank I would just go into town rather than...

What a terrific sequence of photos. For the first hour or so of this match we played fabulous football. We hung on for the win, thankfully, but a goal like Nevin's deserved to win any game. I agree with Nevin's assessment of that time, that the team were edging towards becoming a lot more...

Is this being shown on UK tv anywhere?

The 1972 semi final replay between Stoke amd Arsenal. Greenhoff scoring Stoke's goal from the spot. Arsenal went on to win 2-1, though.

I thought @chicoazul had gone on a summer sabbatical?

As decent as Betis were in the 1st half, you can't hope to win a trophy with that Adrián in goal. They all looked leggy in that 2nd half and Antony looked like the Premier Leagur version that we were familiar with.

My eyes! Usually pre-season games are not a precursor of what is to come, but we got trounced 3-0 in a pre-season game at Tranmere that year and it absolutely was. Never understood the popularity of that top, to me it is a constant reminder of (for me) our worst ever team, and there have been...

Nobody watching that game without prior knowledge would have known our right back today was 39 years of age. In his time with us he might have had two or three high-profile poor games but so have all the others (excepting our goalie). I was very dismissive of the decision to recruit him but it...

No we haven't been really good but it's been a decent showing from us so far, especially given the paucity of quality that we have. Harrison is supporting Young well but our set pieces are dire.

I won't ask you, but just tell me.

Maradona-esque this goal

My first senior match at Goodison, I remember the goals vividly, as well as all the smells!

White shirt, blue tie and EFC tie clip for me. When I started going in the 80s my dad's mates all still went dressed like so (wherever they stood or sat). I will pay them a little homage one last time.
