My only real memories of it were going away to Boro as a 5 year old when Franny Jeffers scored 2 and we won as well as winning away to Stoke in the FA Cup when I was 7 so it was boss.
 
Aside from 1 crazy day in May '94 & 18 months of Big Joe's tenure, it was ****ing grim.

92/92 averaging 19K at home, playing like drains under Howard with Kenny Sansom at LB - some of the lads who moan about us now, would have taken the bleach if they'd been around then.

Life seems to be happy in recents years. When I was younger, there were relegation battles season after season. 90s was horrible for me except the F.A Cup and 95/96. "The dark days" of Walter Smith is also hard to forget.

Was it Dion Dublin that Kendall Mk II fell out with the board over trying to sign?

I'd that hadn't happened we'd never had had the Walker era, although we were already on the slide at that point
Could be right about Dublin,was it not being able to sign Flo that hurried the end of Kendall ?

5 years old when Jeffers played for us. That makes me feel ridiculously old.
 
There's nothing wrong with remembering the 90's, but please don't use it as a yardstick to measure success or failure.

Everton weren't created in he 90's.

We weren't created in the 60s or 80s either. throughout our history we've had totally brilliant teams and absolutely gash teams. we have to use both extremes to measure true success or failure imo
 
I thought we were due one. The team was crap too so I had no faith. Oster, Farrelly, Phelan and Cadamarteri...bad memories.

Great in the pub after, all singing " we are by far the greatest team the world has ever seen" even though we only stayed up on goal difference.
 
Despite winning FA cup in -95 I thought we were awful under Royle as well. No tacticts, just kick and run. It all started with Walker.....
