I remember the game but not any song. I was in the Anfield Road End for that game, what a cracker. In my mind I can still see the Pickering goal and Morrisey flying down the wing.

Great game and the best part, away from the result, was to see thousands of the red fans streaming out of Anfield after
Morrissey's fourth goal, watching from the Kop, the biggest open air toilet in the world, was a great day for me and thousands of Bluenoses.
 
Just talking to my older brother and when He started to see the blues, he stated it was 1953 a Goodison pre season friendly v some foreign team where the opposition winger played with only one arm ? can anyone remember that game?- he has some great stories about the blues with away trips etc
One funny one was Coventry City away at the old Highfield road evidently the ground was awkward to get too - he went with a full car [an old banger} He had been given good instructions from an Home James coach driver, but his co driver messed up and they took a wrong turning a few miles from the ground - a row started but one of his mates seen a bust stop full of Coventry fans with scarf's on - He beckoned one to the car and dragged him in to sate they just wanted to go to the ground and he would have a free lift , My brother was not happy as he now had six people in a five vehicle car - The Coventry fan would not say a word and was crapping himself it was a while before they all worked out he was deaf , and dumb, they threw him out as quick as the could as police were seen - It turned out they were just around the corner from the ground!lol
The chances of giving a lift to a fan who could not direct them through no fault of his own!lol

Yes, Joey, remember this game, German team played in all green, shorts and jerseys, the one armed man played outside
left, the match was a 0-0 draw, got a feeling Jimmy Harris played in this game. Often wandered if the one armed man
played in German league games, I think the team began with a letter K.
 

Here you go lads, you know, just in case one of you crokes.

Always love hearing the stories and seeing the pics from the 'older' (sorry!) generation of blues, I can't contribute until 2041 but great thread, carry on gents!

Ah thanks Degsy, so either first line or second line would have been Morrissey Morrissey flying down the wing, then perhaps something like feared by the reds? loved by the blues? Morrissey, Morrissey, Morrissey?

Sounds eminently plausible Nev, but I can't remember what I had for tea 2 days ago so wtf do I know
 
I laughed at that then realised I don't know what I had for tea on Thursday neither!

Thing is Nev when we were young you had memory literally to burn, so you did, you remembered everything wether you wanted to or not.
Nowadays you don't really have to remember what you had for tea, or even if you had your tea at all; you did, you ate it and moved on.

Now if I forgot to have my tea tonight that would be a real problem.

I read years ago that if you care about something you will remember it

I used to hound the kids with it when they forgot
Did you put the light out
No I forgot...like somebody whose 10 gives one about the light being off or on

Q) Forgot?... what does forget mean?
A) Forget means don't care.

All we have to do is get Roberto to not care about the tippy tappy pass pass rubbish and forget it for all season
