Old Everton Pictures

[Eggs]

I remember the arches it happend after a dart and coins were thrown behind both goals or we could have got fined more .....
I remember being in the park end v Man U even with the arches in place and in a dirty game with United's John Fitzpatrick { what an animal he was} coins and apple cores were hurled at him taking a corner to the right of the paddock side - he had kicked our holy trinity to hell tensions were high........ it was 0-0

..of course, it’s been discussed on here before. Thanks Joey.

The Nigerian Squad at Bellefield who played football barefooted, Bellefield, Liverpool 1949

Did Dixie Dean play some part in this game, I think it was against South Liverpool at Holly Park : South Liverpool won 4-1
if I'm not mistaken.

I feel sorry for those who never actually saw this oaf playing for us. He was pure comedy gold.

I didn't think he was all that funny, mind his shorts had you in stitches.

This must have been one of the last finals where the losing side's supporters stayed in the ground for the lap of honour. It looks terrible now when you see photos of the victorious team against an empty background.

I remember Nicky Butt clapping our supporters on his walk around the ground after the game as well.

Chelsea 1 Everton 1 in April 1975 at Stamford Bridge. Dave Smallman and Ian Britton in action -

Good player David Smallman, never got the breaks, had to retire early because of injuries.

Swerved my wife's sisters wedding to watch this game, wasn't very popular at the " Do" in the night, was too happy to worry about it.

Alex Parker and Alex Young arrive at BBC Radio Merseyside in 2008 -

I always thought Alex Parker resembled Frankie Vaughn the Liverpool singer.

My late father rated him as the best slide tackler in the busness- now ottlawed as Guam tackle from behind- yet at School taught how to practice it as a defender .... getting old .... yes he did resemble Frankie a bit

Andrei Kanchelskis before he joined us with Alan Harper, and Ablett in pursuit of him?

...I don’t recall the cut-away arches behind each goal in the mid-60s. Interesting.

They were there mate...not sure where you were though

Now I went to 'this game'...well 'a game' under floodlights in 1954 and I wasnt born in 1949.
Ive seen this 1949 date quoted before and as @Joey66 knows captions and mistakes do tend to get carried on and repeated as gospel.
A trip into the newspaper archives, especially The Garston Weekly News might clear this up.
Unless there was a 2nd game. But I know I was there then and not 1949.
