What are your 'Mind blown' moments since you've been a blue?

[MrD]

Could be good or bad. Let's be honest, we've had quite a few over the years.

two mind blown moments that stand out for me are when we signed Kanchelskis. i just couldn't believe how good he was. world class.

The other one was a truly awful one, when Moshiri appointed Benitez as manager. i just can't believe how bad a decision that was.

A long time ago now but when the website ran 'three new signings' only for it to unfold that it was in fact three players back from injury.

Also 'you've had good times' is pretty epic as well.

Oh Gary Gary
Gary Gary Gary Gary Lineker, half time at Wembley against the cult. Never heard anything so loud.
Unfortunately we got beat and he left.

The Riquelme saga.

Rooney scoring against Arsenal.

Felt like the world was going to change.

Honestly, Martinez’ entire first season. There was an energy around the club (and the forum) that I hadn’t personally experienced.

I found Everton in 2008, so it’s been more frustration than elation.

Beating Bayern.

Ancelotti and James.

Big Sam .

FSW

As stated, Benitez. I was just stunned. It was utterly ridiculous.

…watching Alan Ball, nothing compares.

Unbelievable appointments of Fat Sam and Fat Spanish Waiter. Sorry to be fat-ist.

I actually boycotted for a time under Allardyce.

Win against Wimbledon, beating ManU cup semi, goal by Saha in cup final, mid-1980s …..beating Crystal Palace - atmosphere at Goodison. So many.

 

[Joey66]

…Alan Ball, that’s it.

Plus Kendall & Harvey = the Holy Trinity - the best football I have ever watched

Within a year of Mike Walker managing us, we had won the FA Cup and had players like Andrei Kanchelskis.

Benitez being hired and Moshiri coming out with comments like “he knows the city”

Bill being applauded back in 2011
