Seeing Joe Royle looking older bought it home how time moves on. He was the same age I am now when we won the FA cup. He's the same age as my dad almost to the day.

Getting old is way better than the alternative and he seemed as mentally alert as ever.

Hopefully we all get some more trophies in our lifetimes.
 
The saddest one was seeing that Joe Royle couldn’t do the appreciation lap. I welled up when I saw him doing the Echo’s Goodison memories podcast. I absolutely love him. Thinking about it, today was the first time I cried about an Everton related event since I found out Howard Kendall had passed. Stood in the middle of a shopping centre crying that day 🤦🏻🥹
Seemed physically infirm, but really came alive and was lucid and witty when he started to talk. Love him.
