Which Merseyside district produces most Everton players;

[Dario Terracotta]

....oooh, @Dario Terracotta, I don’t recall us mentioning Peter Clarke from Southport.

Unpopular though he is, Steve McMahon from Halewood.

Yup,good shout Eggs!!

 

[Dario Terracotta]

...I think @Dario Terracotta is claiming him for Formby.

Regate rovers boy was Bally!!

 

[tmgc]

...I thought Tommy Wright was a Garston lad. He certainly lives down that way.

John Gidman was Garston too i think.

Osman is usually attributed to Huyton because he was raised there, but he was born in Wigan.

Darracott also for Huyton.

Terry was actually raised in Edge Hill, Dave.. a proud St Anne's, Overbury Street lad. The family moved to Huyton later though.

 

[Cameron Manning]

...I remember playing at St Phily’s, can we count that as Norris Green?

Yis near enough for me.

...I think @Dario Terracotta is claiming him for Formby.

Ex Redgate Rovers boy was Bally,still lives in Formby.

...great old school, very much in my area growing up. I remember kicking a ball in its playground next to Shaw St park.

Just a facade left now, I think. Luxury flats.

I think Archie Styles was from Anfield, poor lad.

If I’m not mistaken Duncan McKenzie is married to Archie’s sister. I threw that in while I’ve got my shawl on, oh and while I’m here Terry Gannon is another Scotty Roader, brother of Michael Gannon,Terry only played once, left half versus Red Star Belgrade in one of the early floodlit games, oh and before I take my shawl off their uncle Billy Gannon was one of the few boxers to beat the great Freddie Miller, even if it was by a disqualification.

John Gidman was Garston too i think.

...that’s a good one. I vaguely remember his dad doing a bit of scouting for Villa.

Morrissey definitely from Scotland Road area St. Sylvesters.

Apparently they were THE football school around that district - although my old feller (St Anthony's) would have given them an argument!

...good information, Jacob. I have to include him as Wavertree with Barkley?

Ahh, fair enough.

 

[davek]

Great idea for a thread, btw, @Eggs

 

[davek]

Baines and Stubbs are the only first team players I think of from this neck of the wood.

We had Jamie Jones, Cal McManaman, and Mark Hughes in the youth ranks as well.

Sorry Connor, didn't see that reply earlier.

Yep, completely forgot about Stubbsy.

Nice thread and lots of memories but the Mark Hughes has me confused.
