First Game:

Everton v Manure (11/05/03) - Last match of the season, we lost 2-1, Rooney missed a sitter & MU were presented with the Championship trophy. Saw ESSCA details in a fanzine whilst enjoying the hospitality of a local pub before the match - The rest, as they say, is history

 

 Why Do I Support Everton:
  Alan Ball was my favourite player and he played for Everton, and once you've nailed your colours to the mast you can never change. Thank God my memory doesn't go back beyond '66 - I could be a Blackpool fan!!

Carolyn Whitley

First Game:

Everton v Coventry 26th October 1976 League Cup 4th Round Won 3-0 

 

Why Do I Support Everton:
  1968 FA Cup final Coming from Birmingham originally, I didn't like B'ham City or their fans and they were, even then, a perennial yo yo club. My brother supports the Villa and there was no way I was going to support them.  In short, I felt sorry for Everton after Astle's late goal but I also remember the Everton fans being the noisiest

Favourite Game:

3 October 1987.  Saints 0-4 Everton.  My dad and I managed to get tickets to watch this match in the Directors Box at The Dell.  I was in 7th heaven as my absolute hero, Graeme Sharp, scored all 4 goals.
