Who was captain when you went to your first match?

[Dario Terracotta]

I'm gonna give ya the benefit of the doubt, no Blue at his first game would lob a pie down on other Blues...
As Shirley Valentine would have said, "it was deffo dem Greeks"

I plead innocence Andy,all I can remember is the green of the pitch,the floodlights and the sheer grandeur of Goodison

 

[PITA]

Mick Lyons for me, with Brian Kidd up front!

............and Pejic in the team?

Not sure if it was Brain Labone or Roy Vernon, it was when we won the league by beating Fulham.

The day I was born. I'll ask my Dad. He was at the match.

Don Hutchison, boxing day 1998, the worst game of football ever......

 

[Bluerover]

Brian Labone, friendly in summer 1970 v Shamrock Rovers at Milltown.

Dave Watson October 94

EDIT

Actually might have been Ratts in 91 over in Ireland but that was a friendly

 

[The Binman]

Technically it wasn't an Everton game, well., it physically wasn't, but my dad took me to see Bradford City take on visitors grimsby Town in 1986,managed by a certain Mick Lyons, so I'll say that. It was my first ever game.

 

[The Binman]

Dave Watson iirc on Tony Cottee’s debut (hat trick)

Against Newcastle

 

[WA Toffee]

Where's the Wayne Rooney option?

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Lyons vs Brighton and Hove

Dave Watson was captain, 1994, destroyed by Blackburn Rovers. 3-0. Wilcox with a screamer and Newell slotting it in the top corner. We were poor. The worst time to start attending Goodison. The Wilcox goal was post and in, he hit it that hard that the post made the loudest noise. I still remember thinking wow.

Became a fan in 88, missed Ratters lifting the trophy the previous season. Everton came to malaysia the following year during the break and played our national team in a friendly. Went to penalties and Big Nev did a jig when he saved the attempt that saw Everton win it. It was a school night I think so I had to watch it on TV (live it was). Good times.

............and Pejic in the team?

Ha ha, no! After his time. John Bailey at left-back that day (could’ve been his debut), and in midfield someone who’s a prime candidate for one of those threads about players you’d forgotten had turned out for Everton, Colin Todd.

This was my first ever Everton game with Ratcliffe as captain. From this game on 8th Sept 1984 I didn't miss a single league home game until the end of the 2002/03 season.

Roy Vernon.
