    Terrific left foot taking free kicks and corners. Bent a few like Beckham for Walsall and one on his Burnley home debut.

    Oh right. I wasn't too sure when those confided power cuts came in to being. Don't think we played any games in midweek afternoons. Yes that other game was against t'oher lot from Merseyside. Henry Newton was signed for Walsall by Dave Mackay in 1977. Only played about 10 games for us but had to...

    Just checked on the net and your next games were all Saturdays. Leeds H 0-0 on 12th Newcastle A 0-0 on 19th then Spurs H 0-2 in the FA Cup on 26th. The following Wednesday, March 1st, you played Spurs at H again, in the League 1-1. Maybe that was what you were thinking of? I won't remind you of...

    Yes mate 45,462 at Goodison for the Walsall visit. Think power cuts came later that year? Defo in 73. Nice recollection of Bernie from your spell working in Wolvo in 87. Bernie actually became a local referee (hard to believe) and a teacher! (even harder to believe) Not sure where he is based...

    Started off with Everton as Trainees but never made a first team appearance I believe? What were they like at Goodison? Anyone see their performances in your reserves and youth teams? Realise you can't keep every kid at such a big club but do any of you think they could have stayed on and made...

    Cheers The Blue Fox. Thought I'd sign up to this fine forum and see if any Everton fans from yesteryear were present that day! Not sure how many travelled up from Walsall that day but there were thousands! Some one pointed out that there were more present at Goodison that day than your next home...

    Cheers pal. It was only my third Walsall away game and indeed my only ever visit to Goodison Park. Would love to visit again after all this time so hoping you will draw us in a cup competition again. Alan Whittle was always going to be a dangerman and he was a fine player. You had some very good...

    Evening folks! I am the writer of that article. Was just a lad of 13 but I remember the whole day. For me it was brilliant to visit a ground like Goodison Park. The stands looked massive and I had never been in the company of 45,000 people before! I was right proud of Walsall that day. Everyone...
