This will not be a nailed-on win, just glad Jack isn’t eligible. But on form we need to win this.

Exactly, don't recall many easy wins against Everton down the years.

81 FA cup quarter final replay, when the North stand was a mixed zone

Not the Platt Lane ?

Lovely composed finish by Power. Forgot how fast he was and especially on that muddy pitch.

I thought it was the North Stand too.
The camera shows us attacking right to left, which would be correct as it was in the Main Stand which has the North Stand to the left. Pretty sure I can make out Helen Turner in her usual seat behind the goal.
I was in that stand that night and my memory has it that Bobby Mac’s goals were right in front of me. Memory is a strange thing though..

I was in the kippax, i think i remember Paul Power scoring at the north stand ? Oh i don't know now :(

So good we only need 10 men !

Doh! I’ll chuck Phil in there for good measure ;-)

 

[BringBackSwales]

Are you his dad ?
Your reply seems a little defencive.
Good for you signing home and away.
Enjoy your day. CTID

I prefer singing to signing, nobody asks for my autograph these days. I am defensive of people who sing over the silent majority. That’s all. Nothing bad in what I said, for once

 

[BringBackSwales]

I don't know about you but if I sing too much or get too carried away now I really pay for it for the next week or so, mind you nowadays if a fart too vigorously I could easily break a rib.

I am old, 2 fucked knees, bad back, recent stroke (of the medical kind, not the amorous Mrs Swales kind!) so everything hurts lol

Was at that in the Kippax
Packed out with people pissing up the wall at back. Probably didn’t want to miss anything with the trek down the steps to loo’s.
Waterfall of piss coming down the steps
Them were the days

I know I'm old now, because I remember that like it was last week! I loved the 80/81 season, apart from that travesty of a cup final replay....

Preferable option to using urinals provided tbh! The stench off those was like a sewage works.

Then you are the doyen of the FOCs.

 

[calumdown]

on becoming a certain age it is foolish to wish away one's precious days,
but i cannot fucking wait for this game!

i feel it in my bones that something special is happening with this new team and backroom staff.
i believe guardiola has got the bit between his teeth again.

up the mighty blues!

 

[Scaley]

The Everton nil nil, I think 2015ish was really cold that night.

Defo was mate, brass monkeys.

 

[mac]

Could we go top with a win

Does doyen mean most fucked, if so yes

 

[alexmcity]

If we win vs Everton by 2+ goals.

 

[big gaz]

These are a solid side, good creatively but lacking in that goal scorer up top.

Is Dewsbury still banned? Without him and Grealish they shouldn’t have enough going forward to cause enough mither.

1-0 us.
