Players you were gutted to see leave.

[chaser]

Trevor Steven: My all time favourite Everton player. I was absolutely gutted, I was only a boy, I think I may have cried.

Martin Keown: Keown would have been captain for about 10 years if he stayed. It was more what the sale signified though; it's when I started to realise that we might have been losing our status as a giant of the English game.

Rooney to a certain extent, but Duncan Ferguson. I was only about 7 at the time but it broke my young heart.

However when he came back I remember seeing it on the TV and feeling like 50 christmases had come at once.

Gary Lineker, I was 6 and inconsolable when my dad told me he had been sold.

Didn't turn out too bad that one though.

 

[Number_25]

Wayne Rooney.

Gutted when Bob Latchford went to Swansea. The man could miss sitters and walk on water in the same game.

I don't know why I was so upset really, until about Italia '90 watching footy bored me, I just wanted to play. I just remember crying, "buy him back, buy him back." What a whinger, I should have got a clip round the ear.

Ian Durrant
Kanchelskis

And losing Joe Parkinson to injury...I was gutted

 

[Tom Mc EFC]

Andy Vandy Mandy.


Daniel Antonio Gosling

I was 10 and pretty much the same. Wounded.

Yeah, the next season made up for it though.

Was lost for words when Dunc left, too.

This and Tricky hit me hard as a youth...

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

The exodus during 'the ban' was enough to break anyone, it certainly broke Everton.

I was gutted when we let Andy Gray go and i could never take to Lineker.
I was gutted and upset when Duncan Ferguson was pushed out the door, hated johnson for that and seeing Duncan come out of Goodison crying was horrible! Wished him all the best and told him he'd come back 1 day!

Rooney. Was very personal, world class determined to play at the very highest level was such a punch which knocked the wind out of us for a while.

Felt like being dumped by a girl you secretly knew was out your league.

Agreed. Except it was more like being dumped for an astronaut and then being told it was the best sex shes ever had.
