I am 100& with you on this one mate
, back in the late 70,s , I despised Gordon Lee as did a number of Evertonians but the supporters I knew never would dream of wanting Everton to lose to get him shunted , or look at rehashing a rendition of " We All Hate Leeds - TO We all Hate Lee and Lee - we all ******* hate Lee
We hated it when Gordon was appointed, Mike.
It was a very unpopular choice.
But by Jove we had some exciting football under him.
The first few months of his tenure, in winter/spring 1977, was a very vibrant time what with the Villa Trilogy and the great Clive Thomas Robbery.
And those first two full seasons under him saw some of the best football we have seen at Goodison outside of Title winning teams..... Dave Thomas, Big Bob and the rest.
Long unbeaten runs in both and being in the thick of the Title chase most of the season.
No sir, I was among those whom decried Gordon at first but he won me over and I retain fond memories of the Gordon Lee era
