Mark Bright (unfortunately). Everton 2 Sheffield Wednesday 2. 95/96 season. God Kanchelskis was good though!

johnnie501efc.bsky.social•109 days ago

Mo Johnson in the Derby 1992. First Everton goal live was Wayne Clarke at Wembley in 1987

Not 100% sure - maybe ‘88 Cottee’s debut hattrick. Earliest game was 0-0 at Old Trafford in ‘86. All I remember was a heavily-tattooed skinhead facing away from the pitch “conducting” the crowd. Don’t think he saw any of the match! He was a tad scary and I remember being glad he was on our side 😂

Bid dunc penalty 1-1 draw v spurs

Michael Keane's wonder strike versus Tottenham last season. Place absolutely erupted!

I remember that one, abysmal performance

thetoffees.bsky.social•109 days ago

Still got my ticket. £3.50!

bingus71.bsky.social•109 days ago

Adrian Heath 02/10/82 against Brighton

rob1878.bsky.social•109 days ago

Paul Rideout 1993. Everton 1 Norwich 5 🤦‍♂️

Should have taken the hint then #EfanWho

dixiesing.bsky.social•109 days ago

I remember being at that.
Where we 1-0 up at half time and conceded 5 second half? 🤔

rob1878.bsky.social•109 days ago

Yep, couldn’t believe it. They destroyed us 2nd half. Efan Ekoku scored 4 of them I think. Remember the headline in the pink echo was EFFIN WHO? 😁

dixiesing.bsky.social•109 days ago

Wow, what a headline, didn’t know about that! 👏🏻😆

rob1878.bsky.social•109 days ago

Did make me smile, back in the day when the echo was half decent!

dixiesing.bsky.social•109 days ago

🤦🏻‍♂️

thetoffees.bsky.social•109 days ago

I wanted us to sign him for ages after that one. Brutal.

nathanohagan.bsky.social•109 days ago

My fellow Poulton Athletic alumni, Derek Mountfield. Against Watford in a 3-2 win, 25 October 1986. He scored a hat-trick of sorts; two for us, one for them.

alvezdj.bsky.social•109 days ago

Had to look this up. Artera in our 2-3 loss to Blackburn

stilldavis.bsky.social•109 days ago

This will show my age but Adrian Heath 1984 v QPR. We won 3-1 the week before winning the cup final.

thetoffees.bsky.social•109 days ago

Not a bad time to start going to be fair. Did you get to the final?

stilldavis.bsky.social•109 days ago

Nah I was only a kid in primary school. Going down to Wembley wasn't a very child friendly day out at the time I believe!

dixiesing.bsky.social•109 days ago

Stuart McCall vs Tottenham 1990 ⚽️
Finished 1-1
I was in the Goodison Road Panini Family Enclosure near Park End and I think we got a free pack of Panini Stickers from the World Cup from that Summers World Cup 4 months earlier

Wonder who else here was there.

My Dad was apparently!

seosamhefc.bsky.social•109 days ago

How old was your Dad when he attended that game?

chrisleeuk.bsky.social•109 days ago

Mr Sedgley here too, NYE 1994

thetoffees.bsky.social•109 days ago

How many did he score against us? Like a 90s Tom Cairney.

chrisleeuk.bsky.social•109 days ago

Twice in 9 month for two different clubs. Doesn’t get much more Everton than that

Alan Whittle against Weat Brom on 1 April 1970, with the second by Colin Harvey. We were sat in the new main stand, in the end of row looking down into old stand seeing Brian Labone presented with the trophy. Schoolmates on the pitch watching, I had the best view but so wanted to be on the pitch

stevie-scouse.bsky.social•109 days ago

Brian O’Neil for Southampton - followed by Peter Osgood then Mick Channon as we got beat 0-3. April 1974.

adamwitosky.bsky.social•109 days ago

Living in the U.S., the only game I’ve seen live was the win over Chelsea in May 2022, with Richarlison scoring the only goal.
