Too much information that lad

I watched my first game in 1963 we were already champions and I have since seen 3 Titles 3 fa cup wins and a European Final in answer to the original poster I hope he is able to see some what I have seen in his lifetime.
One thing I would take issue with is that he says he needs to see it before he is 47 and loses all his faculties well mate im 59 now and still think I have another 11 years left to see it all again and if Martinez wants to give me a call tonight I am still available for selection.

Trust me sometimes being old enough to have enjoyed all those moments from the 80's etc can be a curse as well, i remember when we where the best team in europe and maybe thats why the moyes era getting hailed as a achievement by the rags and some fans is so hard to swallow

Dont you remember being voted best club side in the world in some fifa poll or something.

think we were FIFA World team of the year in 1985

the link below is from a blog of a Bayern fan's view of the ECWC semi

the piece isn't very interesting but does include some brief of clips of the first leg in Munich

and a longer collection of highlights of one of our greatest games of all time...

I think I've seen 2 League titles, all FA Cup wins and losses since '84. I do remember the Milk Cup Final v them lot and the replay. Saw the ECWC brought back, multiple Charity Shields..................aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh the good old days!!

We will rise again! Keep the faith!

I was born in 1986 and even I was only 9 years old when Everton won our last major trophy The FA Cup.................................

It worries me that I will go through my entire life and never experience league titles, continuous cup wins, getting to a European final and winning! Will I ever see any of this live?

Hopefully it will get better, but not under boys pen billy.

If you can't take a joke you shouldn't a joined

[trebilcock66]

Lucky enough to remember us being boss and being a full kit [Poor language removed] watching us lift the Cup Winners Cup, I was a lid ffs.

Seems like beards ago, if that's all I'll ever get then it was amazing. I'd love to have it again though.

Was??

I was only 4 when we won our first League Championship so I don't remember that but I remember our next 3 championships also 3 Fa Cup wins aswell as 5 losses. A ECWC and loads of Charity shields and 2 league Cup losses. Read it and weep you youngsters. Anyone who can guess my age wins a lollipop. I almost forgot can I count our 4th place as winning something or am I pushing it.

You were born in 59 I think.

Maybe late 58

Where's my Lolipop?
