1:16... Colin taking about 2 seconds to understand the pass isn't on and running in to space and playing it wide. It's these simple things we haven't done well for a long time.

If I had one wish for Evertonians, it would be that everyone of them could have experienced supporting this club when those lads wore the royal blue shirts! I genuinely never gave a [Poor language removed] who we were playing, we could match anyone and embarrass them!
Howard was still some player when he came back as player/manager.

I for one as a youngster really enjoyed those three or four games Howard played as player manager, his quality shone like a beacon and I could appreciate what a superb player he must have been in his prime for us
The club had a very different culture back then.
Winning and trophies/glory was all that mattered. The crowd were even more demanding than what they claim now lmfao. Only winners and those
with special drive had longevity which was why we were never long between trophies.

Every club have their rough periods, however what I particularly didn’t like especially during the likes of the Moyes era was a sort of disbelief at some of us not being totally engrossed with what was happening on and off the pitch . True he did well considering the funds he had however I was never totally comfortable with it, thinking it shouldn’t have got to the “punching above our weight” “be careful what you wish for” buzzword stuff.
Kendal was indeed a very good player, but I disagree with you about those few games he played as player/manager, he was like an assassin,I for one as a youngster really enjoyed those three or four games Howard played as player manager, his quality shone like a beacon and I could appreciate what a superb player he must have been in his prime for us
I used to cringe and wince at his tackling, really over the top.
To think I used to watch this sort of stuff week in week out

Howard was brilliant as part of the Holy Trinity but for me he played his best football after Bally was sold; everyone, including the players, was stunned, but HK took over the captaincy and almost single-handedly carried a declining team for the next couple of years - Colin was struggling with injury. Without Howard there's a good chance we would have gone down in that bleak fag-end of the ailing Catterick's reign.
I've a vague memory that Ramsey said he didn't pick him for England, and gave Colin just one cap, because neither of them scored enough goals, yet he picked a yard dogs like Stiles and, even worse, Storey ahead of them. Should be posthumously stripped of his knighthood and given to Sir Howard!

Was at both of those games, the atmosphere/noise at that Stoke game was something else!
You're right HK, absolute legend, it was a pleasure to watch the man play for then manage Everton!

Howard came over to N Ireland, Donaghadee I think it was, and gave a pall to ESCNI . I shook his hand at the end, the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end. The man was and will always be a legend.
