Your first match

[Dylan]

Everton versus Liverpool, 1986 Charity Shield. Drew 1-1 Heath scored and then Ian [Poor language removed] Rush equalized.

I thank my step-dad (from Birkenhead) for Everton, as I was a 7 year-old American kid living in the UK now converted for life.

It was about 1958, 2 - 1 win against an up and coming Spurs, taken by a rs uncle, those were the days. [Poor language removed] I just realised I may have just done 50 years a blue. Can anyone say on what date in 1958 we beat Spurs 2 - 1?

Never been to England. Only been an Everton fan for two years. Hopefully I will visit England next Winter.

Delete "converted".

Insert "chosen".

You are one of the chosen.

[McBain]

The year, 1931.

I sat at the end with the goals facing the pitch.

Dean got a hattrick that day and I still remember the smell of the coal fires down mines.

Eyy up chuck. Fandabidosy.

First was a friendly between Everton and Columbus Crew in 2006. First REAL match was Everton-Liverpool derby at Goodison in 2006 (3-0). Game was doubly special as I was on my honeymoon (I insisted we visit Liverpool and take in a match at Goodison while in the UK). Atmosphere was fantastic!!

1984/85 vs Leicester at Filbert Street. My dad took me for my 9th birthday. We won 2-1. Andy Gray scored the winner I think.

When he collided with the goalpost while celebrating his goal ? Same game i think.

 

[atrottel]

I think (getting on a bit) it was a game at White Hart Lane in the early 70s. I think we won, so that would make it '74? Look at this teamsheet from the game, brings back some memories of obscure players...

I was visiting England with my parents and aunt and uncle in the summer of 2002. I had only one request and that was to go to a football game. My aunt is originaly from Liverpool and still has some family living there, her cousin got us tickets to the season opener against Tottenham, finished 2-2 draw. I believe it also happened to be Rooney's first appearance with the first team. More importantly I fell in love with Goodison and the team and have been a blue ever since. I guess I was lucky her cousin is a blue.

 

[SuitsBlue]

spurs 2 - 2 opening day.

sounds like the redknapp cahill incident. if i recall correctly.

 

[BuffaloEvertonian]

I just looked it up, the Redknapp incident occurred in 2004.

 

[Nebbiolo]

We lost to QPR at home, 1-3. It must have been 1977/78, or thereabouts. I think Latchford scored, but I could be wrong.
