    Bob Latchford appreciation thread

    My hero growing up, along with Duncan McKenzie. I was in the front row Upper Gladwys when that 30th goal went in and wanted to jump down to the terraces. Good job I didn't as I'd have broken my legs & had to stop pretending to be Big Bob in the playground / on the pitch / in the street. Still...

    Southampton Away

    Bought 2 tickets for me & the lad last night. Sitting with the home supporters near the front of Block 1 right in the corner next to our away supporters in the Itchen Stand. Anyone else want to make this corner full of Evertonians? We won't be wearing Blue just in case but try stopping us...

    Players arriving on Match Day

    Ste, you need to get there by 1pm as most will have arrived by about 1:15. My lad likes to get autographs so we make an early dash a few times each season. He got a great photo with Jelavic at the Fulham game. The stewards will have temporary barriers set up for the players to drive inside...

    Rasher sandwiches.

    I've always had a lot of time for Big Joe. I only just remember him as a player but my dad (who introduced me to GP) used sing in the clubs and knew Joe's dad & his band from the '60s. In the '80s, they sometimes played the same clubs with Joe snr backing my dad with my mum having a drink & a...

    This hostage situation in Algeria

    Totally agree!! I specialise in Tech Safety and was asked late last year to go out to a place just down the road from In Amenas to run a short study for BP starting this bl**y week. The guys seemed a little surprised when I said I didn' think it was very secure there and I turned them down...

    EVERTON VS SOUTHAMPTON FA CUP S/F 1984

    Great memories. I too danced on the pitch at the end of the game with many others, until a kindly policewoman kindly asked me to get back of the f***ing pitch!! I asked her to dance with me, she politely refused....

    Norwegian Evertonian here!

    Hei og velkommen (that's about all the Norwegian I know!!). I was out in Stavanger in Feb, really got to like the place, bloody expensive beer though. By co-incidence I'm just taking a break writing up a report for some other of your countrymen. Just looking to see who we havn't signed...

    wembley block 213 help

    Swapping your ticket in the Club Wembley tier will be no problem mate. I did the same at the 2009 final. My lad was so excited we were about the first in the ground and only then realised we were in the Chelski end seats started to be filled. A father & son from the Isle of Man (Chelski tax...

    Blue from Bosnia

    Dobra dan Ado, One of my very good friends used to lecture at the University of Tuzla & his first game in the UK was when I took him to Elland Road to see our annual loss there when Leeds were in the top flight. His elder daughter's boyfriend is an Evertonian, which is a strange coincidence...
