MEMORY LANE
I remember the Villa away game in 87 because it was my first ever away game and I was 15 and went with 3 of my mates, Seems like a life time ago now, but as licker would say "I'm only a babe". didnt we win the league the next game after that againt norwich?
Despite all the success of the eights, I cant really remember any stand out moments, I guess when your that young your brains taking so much in that you take those times for granted and its only now looking back that you realise how good thing were. When you think back you could walk into the ground and pay in, you didnt need a season ticket and we were winning the league, shows how football is so popular now.
Anyway, my fondest match must be the semi final against spurs in 95, I didn't have a ticket and a few of my mates were going, and who got me a ticket?.............. My RS mate came up trumps because he new a man who new a man Im sure you all know the detail, but I (like someone mentioned about remembering the crowd and the atmos) always remeber how we had three sides of the ground and the massive banners that where passed over the heads of the crowd at both ends before kick off. BRILLAINT STUFF
Also that year we beat the mancs and dig dunc scored that header and we won one nil, remember that match for so many reasons, but its still the only time Everton have scored and I got butterflies and had to sit down while everyone was still cheering
Best memories are my away day trips, and one in particular in about 96ish when a minibus traveled from my local pub, where me and me bro knew the assistant manager who arranged it to a cup game against York, anyway we got beat but had a grand day out, and that was the first time I met a group of fellas who I still go the match with today. AINT FOOTBALL BRILLIANT
