Old Everton Pictures

25th January 1964 Roy Vernon's penalty away to Leeds secures a replay in the FA Cup after Alex Scott's penalty had been saved by Gary Sprake, only for the referee to adjudge he had moved early and ordered the kick to be retaken! It was in the last minute to make it 1-1 my late father - we won thje replay 2-0

A typical send the goalkeeper the wrong way Vernon pen keeping us in the Cup......

Sad to say all my uncles my brothers friends = my father my older brothers mates have all passed away bar a few of us remain alive ,,,,,,:eek:
It gets to us all at some point Joey sadly. My Dad passed away in 2006, just about the last game I took him to was the "Remember the name - Wayne Rooney" game against Arsenal - he was as excited when that goal went in as I'd seen him for years, great memories ;) ;) ;)!
