Player Valuation: £5m
Many of us of a certain vintage just about had Alan Ball and a great side as our heroes before it was all taken away. My years at "big school" as an Evertonian coincided with the rot setting in. The superstar we had was The Latch, better in my eyes than Sharpy ever was or Joe Royle. The sad thing is the guy who just turned 70 never won a jot with our great club. Tonight I have just watched as much as I could find from the 1977 League Cup Final 3rd replay the closest Latch came to a medal.
No one can claim it was like the Kenwright era, by we spent some big money. We had the most expensive goalkeeper at the time in English football David Lawson, and between him and the two full backs that night it was unbefitting of a team including Latchford, Dobson and Lyons. I had forgotten in the midst of time Lee left McKenzie out for that game, a sign of things to come. Thanks Bob you made the 70s bearable and fun if sadly unsuccessful trophy wise.
