Everton right-back focus: Matt Jackson - Signed from Luton, the versatile defender made 165 outings for the Toffees - including in the 1995 FA Cup Final {having scored the winner v. Bristol City in Round 4 } - he went on to have a great career at Wigan when they promoted up 4 leagues -

Leonard Rossiter on Tommy Lawton: "I have never seen anyone to match him in heading the ball. He could add so much power to even the softest centre. He also headed the ball back to his inside forwards with remarkable accuracy so that they could shoot from the edge of the box."
My Great Grandad claimed he was good but never as good as Dixie Dean - Joe Mercer claimed he was a bit more versatile in shooting on the deck than Dixie Dean, but never as good with his head - two different types of Centre forwards anyway -

People scorned when HK took a gamble signing this crocked player -

The great legend of ATV/ITV Football Hugh Johns sums up the game in the 1970s in 37 seconds. His words are bang on!We were spoilt in the 70s, today's game doesn’t have the same appeal if we’re honest! -
