Old Everton Pictures

Getting so tired last night plus I had a very interested poster following my photo trail - I answered in politeness as I feel this thread has so much kind posters on it ......It was very late when I finished of course it's the 1963 team - thank you for spotting my error as fatigue set in at 1-49 am LOL a glaring error by me -
What a great team that was started at the age of 6 years old watching them - my late father took me and sat me on a crash barrier for just a few games home plus away - he loved Roy Vernon - I was blown away by the adulation from the fans the GV got plus how classy Labby was at centre half - it was a great all round team......
Keep up the great work Joey,like u my first visits were on 63 with my late father.Remember first game we went in the Park end stand no less!Without warning when we got to the turnstile my Dad hoisted me over the turnstile and dropped the guy some dosh.Fantastic experience a night game v Bolton saw the GV score in a 2-0 victory.Great memories,great team.
