Degsy,I was happy with your response until I got to the last line. I can take a joke, but I took what you said as what you seriously felt.
I became an Evertonian a few years before you, and in the late 1950s I was quite happy to look at the table in the Echo on Saturday night and see Everton 15th on the Div 1 table.
Things improved enormously when we started buying players - courtesy of John Moores - like Bobby Collins, Alex Parker, Roy Vernon and
Jimmy Gabriel.
We won trophies in 1963, 1966, 1970, 1984/5,1986/87 and 1995, but even in the years when we didn't win silverware we were
competing right at the top and had many, many great victories.
That's why I keep sticking on, because even when we aren't finishing on top, I still enjoy the victory's along the way.
I've had a lot of practice and I love being an Evertonian because of what it's given me for the last 60 odd years.
