Jim, that’s an interesting list. Looking through some bits that l have got this press photo might be of interest.l was trying to find out details of when Liverpool played Castile in the early 1950s. ...

Some interesting football items at Wingetts Auction next week. Could be worth a look.

Boxcat, didn’t know that. Someone out there will probably know the answer, but l wonder what Everton’s first issue is?

Selsafc, it looks like Everton were one of the twelve founding members of The Football League 1888-89 season . This is a copy of their first League programme. If only l had that programme?http://foot ...

Apparently the first known Everton programme is Everton v Astley Bridge 4/9/1886. Here’s a copy of Everton v Notts Rangers 4/5/1889. I can’t believe the number of friendly games that teams seemed ...

Pete, the lsle of Wight 1970 was fantastic. Didn’t arrive until Saturday lunch time. We had two £3 weekend tickets. When you entered the site they took the Sat and Sunday tickets off you and put th ...
