Derek Mountfield

Interview with Degsy . Over an hour long, but from what I've heard so far, well worth a listen. What a player he was.

What would Degsy be worth today?

Quality player! The fact that someone like Jimmy Bullard probably earned more in one season than mountfield did over an entire career shows just how unfair life is.

 

[Lowste]

I often think that about Mark Higgins, this fella had it all and snatched away by an injury that is easily fixed today.

Well if Stones was 50 million, Mountfield would be 75 million

 

[Donald Twain]

Top fella too.

 

[summerisle]

Great insights into the 80s team, HK, training and drinking 10 pints.

Legend, my favorite memory of him, final year of primary school, my teacher was friends with him. One day when were doing PE in the school yard and he came in a bike, rides over to him and gives him some magazines about Everton, everyone else was like who is this nutter on the bike, I was like OMG look who it is !!!

Got my semi ticket v Luton at Villa Park off Degsy. He even dropped it off for me. Had a knack of scoring goals

 

[summerisle]

Listened to it all. What comes through is his sheer delight at being a supporter and playing for the club. Also discusses his life after football.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

he was a bit too early for me to remember , but one of my dads favourite Everton players of all time along with bracewell.

 

[Liam-EFC]

Amazing that he never got a single England cap.

 

[lancs blue]

cracking player. shame he never made it onto international scene except for u21

And we love our Degsy Mountfield.
