The Esk · January 6, 2016

Prompted by an exchange with @tommye and on the day of a semi-final, we must have many great Wembley stories to share.

I'm lucky to have seen Everton at Wembley 16 times

6 FA Cup Finals
2 FA Cup semi finals
5 Charity Shield games
2 League Cup Finals
1 Zenith Cup Final

Only been to one. The penalty shoot out victory win over United in the FA Cup semi final a few years back.

Just me and my dad went, didn't know anyone else. Remember the whole time he kept telling me we would win and I kept dismissing it. One of the best days of my life.

EDIT: bloody hell. just checked, that was 7 years ago!

This is great stuff. A Merseyside derby at Wembley this season would be amazing.

1989 I was 15 and in the RS end when McCall scored the equaliser in the 89 minute. Forgetting where I was for a minute I jumped up and down like a demented chimp and got grabbed round the neck from behind and pulled two rows backwards...

Some fella then starts screaming down my left ear how we'd "f'ing done it lad...f'ing brilliant..." I shate myself at first but hugged him with tears in my eyes.

To be fair nobody batted an eyelid to either of us and I'm sure it would have been going on all over.
