I saw it about 3 months ago at the end of something else, the bit where you get the screen divided into 16 other 'similars' to view. Tried searching a few hours ago but to get the right answer you have to ask the right question... but it is out there and Young was probably offside.
The BBC were there, I remember seeing the outside broadcast vans in Goodison place
Maybe Pathe News archive??

This it ?

Way older than you buddy ! At least you get to see some good racing ! I'm from Seaforth/Waterloo/Bootle, moved up here in 1973.

Steve you have got a great memory and I can confirm you are mostly correct, I share your love of Tommy Ring an
absolute magician, he came from Clyde for £12,000 a steal, pity he only played 34 games for us.

Lovely reading about all these great days and wonderful memories.

It was 10-4 'Highway Patrol' for those into 1950s TV !

Bill Nicholson's first game as Spurs manager, 6-1 at half time.

Bobby Smith scored 4 for Spurs and Jimmy Harris a hatrick for the Blues.

Jimmy Harris scored a hat trick away at Spurs and we got hammered 9-4- imagine him going home to his family and saying that!

Bless You Tube : Jimmy Harris Goal

Bless You Tube : Jimmy Harris Goal

Nothing changes our team cannot defend crosses!lol
Great footage of Jimmy Harris -Also noticed the young Brian Harris who started as a winger for the Blues before becoming a left half/midfielder!

 

[wiggie]

Think he scored 19 from 20

Im sure the one he missed he scored from the rebound

Does anyone else remember that brief shining moment, when Tommy Ring mesmerised everyone, for far too few games, until a broken leg at Chelsea broke the spell. For just a short while, Goodison Park was Camelot.

I remember Tommy Ring great right winger,somebody mentioned Ray Veal, i hope im wrong but Im sure it was in the Echo that he had died recently

My late father, and older brother related to me how great Tommy R ing was, and how the tragedy of hid bad leg break finished his career.

I saw that article,no mate,Ray Veall is thankfully alive and kicking,think he's living in NZ,it was about the fact he had recently been given a medal for the 1963 title I think.

I guess all us fans who remember Roy playing and seeing him in action are drawing our state pensions now. and still love a drink.

TBF, Smith at that time was quite a centre forward.
