Cheers mate.
Some more details

***

This DVD features a selection of Everton greats talking about Alan, including Howard Kendall, Joe Royle and Graeme Sharp. They reminisce about Bally's commitment, determination and world class skills whilst playing in one of the greatest Everton sides of all time. Another former Everton star, Ron Goodlass, gives a unique insight into the great man, having actually been his 'Boot Boy' as a young player. It's quite a story.

Alan himself is featured giving one of the most inspirational After Dinner speeches you will ever see. He was renowned for his qualities as a speaker on the After Dinner circuit.The footage was secured in 2006 when he returned to Liverpool for one of his final visits before his tragic death.

It stands as a testament to his inspirational qualities.
Former Everton FC correspondent and Liverpool Echo Sports Editor Ken Rogers said: "Bally inspired a generation of supporters with Everton FC always at the forefront of his thoughts. He loved the fans and never forgot them. When I viewed this DVD, I turned to my right and saw one of my journalistic colleagues in tears. It said everything about Alan and how he touched people with his inspirational thoughts.

"This DVD also supports the 'Health Through Sport' Charity set up on Merseyside by Ronny Goodlass. The charity helps youngsters to develop confidence and gain qualifications. Everybody who watches this remarkable DVD will sense just how inspirational Alan Ball must have been and you will fully understand what it must have been like in the Goodison Park dressing room during that glorious 1969/70 season when the Blues reigned supreme in English football.''

Good joke - Bally was on par with Lionel Messi! yet played different roles so hard to compare, he also played on mud bath pitches and got no referee protection - yet could dish it out if need be! In these days we would have only kept him one season, or if we had not been a rich club with a good side he would have never signed for us -
