Just some of the famous faces whose career highlights include pulling on an Everton The Gear t-shirt.
As long as they give everything while wearing the shirt, it's all you can ask.

Is it only me who knows what a Dolly Posher is?

Born 90 years ago, today, Alex Parker. The right-back’s signing from Falkirk was the first indication of the Toffees getting more ambitious in the late 1950s. The master of the sliding tackle was briefly club captain after Roy Vernon but injury soon saw his first team career end.

They won’t start them at this rate never mind complete them.

The EFL are unfit for purpose. How has this been allowed to happen?

They refurbed and built a £1m track but the train was too heavy - they sold the train for £1

Jamal Lowe provides honest update on the crisis at Sheffield Wednesday Sheffield Wednesday striker Jamal Lowe speaks candidly to Sky Sports amid the tough situation at the club, claiming players only find out updates via social media

Tim Cahill is inadvertently causing mayhem as everybody wants a selfie with him - one girl chokes back tears and gasps, ‘I touched him’.

Nobody believes it. Not even them.

It’s been closed for 3 or 4 years now, based on a nest of untruths.

My latest piece on leaving Goodison Park 👇🏼

It’s 29 years to the day since England lost to Germany at Euro ‘96.

And as Wembley emptied that night, the BBC beautifully used ‘Walkaway’ by Cast for their closer.

This is possibly the greatest sad montage of all time. 💔

Global ban handed down. I was on my way to Canada when they FA told the owner of the club they would shut down football in North America if I even kicked a ball.

It makes grim reading even after all these years
