The atmosphere at Lime street when getting on the footy specials, small card ticket colour coded according to which train you were on if there was more than one booked.

I've still got that scarf too!!!
I remember running around the Park End against WBA in our 1st Sunday game looking for the free gate, and Butler winding the Man U fans up during a floodlight failure around Xmas 74-75. (They were winning 1-0 and Billy said 'during the power failure,Everton have scored 3 goals' and the humourless dopes almost rioted lol

I remember Lime St station around 3 a.m. And thousands of us on our way to Plymouth out singing the kopites on their way to Ipswich. We took 10 trains that day and ours left at 04.25 (ahhh, no Alzheimer's yet)
 

Remember when Billy Butler was the match D J, he had a request for a record to be played for someone's birthday and me and my mates listened has he read out the names on the request and right in the middle Mike Hunt, all pizz in our selves laughing.

It has to be the Toffee lady parading the ground throwing her toffees into all around the ground to rapturous applaud and the kids stood on the boxes, crates etc - falling off them just to catch an Everton toffee - I tried my best to get one in the melee, but was never successful - her outfit was ace really colourful - now banned under H&S form throwing them into the crowd? a magical moment of our history!

What a day!
Was on night shift and managed to blag a 4AM finish (should have been working til 6)
Memories -
Lime Street packed with blues & reds, looking like a derby day.
Hell of a long journey.
Massive pasties on sale outside the ground.
'Programme' that was basically a newspaper.
Very little about the game.
Sleeping all the way home
