Now he was a goal scorer, he was absolutely lethal. There were 4 of them back then that just scored for fun. Royston, Jimmy Greaves, Denis Law and unfortunately Roger Hunt.

...I put an (post-1960) analysis up some time ago based on goals per appearance ratio and surprisingly (to me) Vernon came out top. I was fortunate enough to see him, but I was too young to recognise just how prolific he was.
 
There i
He and the GV were my childhood hero's, when I was in my teens Bally happened, he's still my hero today.
There is not another Everton player,
past or present,
that for me,
comes anywhere near
Alan Ball...
Absolute magnificent player...
The passion,the drive and the sheer brilliance. will live with me forever.
God Bless Alan Ball.
