Tommy Wright a home grown right back for us making it to the World Cup Final in Mexico 1970 what a tremendous player he was for over lapping as a home grown full back -

Anyone who never saw Tommy play should get hold of a copy of that game to see how good he was. Bally and Bobby Moore were outstanding in that game but Tommy wasn't far behind against a truly great team.

A rare incident in 60's football.... a goalkeeper being sent off. Gordon West of Everton at Newcastle, 1967/68 season.
In the dying minutes of the game, West cleared the ball upfield. As Newcastle’s, Jim Iley, ran past him, West kicked out and caught Iley needlessly. Fortunately for Newcastle (unfortunate for West and Everton), the referee spotted the foul and sent West off. The ball, although deep in Newcastle’s half, was technically still in play and although the ball itself was well upfield, the foul by West occurred inside the Everton penalty area. The referee awarded a penalty. Newcastle scored and won the game 1-0.
West was - at that time - only the 12th goalkeeper to be sent off in all four English leagues since the war. I have no idea what the total is today


- He then blamed poor sandy Brown who went in goal for letting the pen in
