Who was captain when you went to your first match?

[Papa Shango]

Billy Wright.

Lost 0-5. Think we all know the opponent.

I should have just jibbed it off there and then.

 

[Khalekan]

Brian Labone

Billy Bunter dropped for being overweight by HK ......he could not keep his feet out the pantry lol

 

[Togger Blue]

Roy Vernon - usually won the toss and then scored (& had a ciggy at half time!).

1989, Ratcliffe. 1 all draw, if I remember correctly.

Could never grow a proper mustache either.

Just as well we had a young Kevin Ratcliffe to come in...

1969 Brian Labone?

 

[malfosse]

Too young to remember, probably Labone or Ball.

Simple question, who was captain when you went to your first match?

Kevin Ratcliffe for me.

So, not to be entirely daft but do you mean who was designated Captain or who wore the armband during the match?

Roy Vernon.

Threads like these make me question when I became a toffee! And how old I actually am! It was forest away 1986, a drab 0-0 apparently (a thrilling pulsating match is how I remember it) As a lad nearly got crushed in by the fences until a few of us young ones got lifted/thrown over into empty seats in the next stand. Anyway would have been Ratcliffe.

Phil Jagielka

3 August 2013 - International Champions Cup, Dodger Stadium, Los Angeles CA (the first soccer match to be played there)

Everton vs Real Madrid

1-2

The one and only time I've been to a match, but hoping for more!

First game was against Man Utd, Coca Cola cup round 4 in November 93. Dave Watson played so must’ve been captain.
