It's Saturday, it's early, we need a lift and I'm full of coffee - let's have one of our semi-regular legend appreciation discussions, with memories of older blues hopefully being passed on here. Today I thought we'd look at Stuart Barl.... hang on no that won't do after two points lost at home.
Let's look at Brian Labone.
League and cup winner with us who was famously dubbed the last of the Corinthians, he gave up his place in the'66 World Cup side to get married. By all accounts a great player and captain, he had to be talked out of early retirement by Harry Catterick.
Above all though, a massive Evertonian. You can hear his famous comment on 0.16 in this video:
