He stopped that lark in the cup game when Westy did one of his trademark over arm throw outs - round his earhole.
Redrobe then...after giving Westy all sorts of stick for an hour...had the cheek to complain to the Ref.

all friends now - as it should be.

This reminds me of Brian Labone who went to the same school as the original Beatles drummer, Pete Best (according to wikipedia). Everton and The Beatles have such connections with one another which I find so interesting! :)
 
Westy for @westychan & co - tries in vain , but cant stop Chelsea's Hutchinson from scoring - but the Blues went on to win the Charity shield 2-1 away - we should have been at home as Champions , but the new Goodison road stand was behind building schedule -
