Your dad was a legend

Incredible colour footage of a legendary era.

My Grandad was an Everton fan and I followed him and supported them for 54 years and my Son and his son support Everton as well 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great footage. Fantastic comeback by Everton.

I was 10 years old at the time, Not long after with my dad we watched England beat West Germany 4-2. In 1968 a had become an Everton fan and still support them to this day 02/05/2024

My cousin Johnny Quinn played for Sheffield Wednesday in this cup final.

Strange to think that just 10 years later-after this great final- Sheffield Wednesday had to win their last game v Southend to avoid relegation to the Fourth Division

This day changed my life. Lonely unhappy child, nothing ever happened near me or where I lived until this. Unfortunately Wednesday lost but not long after, the 1966 World Cup came calling. Hillsborough was one of the venues. Had to wait till 1968 to get to see Sheffield Wednesday play. I was 12 by then. My love for Wednesday has never faded despite numerous setbacks. I am now 67 years old, Wednesday till I die. Supporting them saved my life, luckily now I came to believe in God. Supporting Wednesday kept me going until coming to belief in God. I now think the Almighty uses circumstances in our lives to draw us to Him. I pray every blessing to Sheffield Wednesday before the throne of God because I lived to find faith because of them. Wednesday kept me going through a lot of years when I had nothing else. Anyone out there reading this, please ask God to reveal His truth to you, show you His presence, show you how Jesus paid the price for your sins. Just admit it to Him and ask for forgiveness. God hears and rejoices when a sinner comes to Him. Don't be afraid to ask!!

Argyle supporter here......what most people don't know is the scorer of Everton's first and second goal, Mike Treblecock, was signed from Plymouth Argyle shortly before the final, what a game for him :-)

I went to every cup match that season, including the final. The Everton manager was vilified for not reinserted usual forward Fred Pickering after injury. However he chose to play Mike Trebilcock. What a stroke of genius that turned out to be as Trebilcock ghosted in to score two almost identical goals. I well remember Shirly sorry Derek Temples run away goal, and the supporter running across the field being chased by Policeman, left sprawling on the grass after failing to grab supporter by the jacket. Priceless memories.

Will always remember this my 21st birthday and I am a Sheffield United supporter what a day thanks Everton

One of the best FA Cup finals ever

Good day. Thank you so much for the posting exellent video. Enjoyed and liked. Lots of love and greetings from Baku city

My dad went to the game, took 2 days of pub crawling to get home. RIP dad, one of the best days of his life.

It's the first final I can remember. I had a bit of a speech problem thing when I was young and wanted Everton to win because the other team was too difficult to pronounce. I hope the two guys that ran on never got nicked.Sometimes you get carried away. Bevvie etc.

I went to Every cup match that year including the final. Met Bill Shankly outside the ground before game and asked him 'what Everton player'would you want playing for Liverpool. He answered, 'today eleven of them, next week, none. I had to laugh. 😅

Loved Cup Final day. What a special occasion it was

An opposing player once asked Brian Labone why he didn't have a club badge on their shirts, and he replied,"we're Everton football club, we don't need badges", says it all really.

I remember a big floral tribute on a roundabout in Liverpool that summer 'England World champions, Liverpool league champions, Everton Fa Cup winners'

I was a 12 year old Everton supporter at the time, crying when we were 2- 0 down then jumping for joy when Derek Temple scored the 3rd. I'm 67 years old now and am totally ashamed of the football my team is producing under Benitez. This man is ruining my club, it is time for him to go.

I well remember that day and I can't imagine Everton's present squad coming back into a game like that. They should be made to watch that before every game until the end of the season. They might then learn something about what it means to play for Everton and to show determination and courage in the face of adversity.

Parabéns Everton 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

I was 7 in 1966

Fantastic footage. There is always something slightly innocent about these old newsreels, and even just the culture of the day. You can see it in the way players celebrate jumping on the spot, guys running on the pitch in suits and Bobby´s tripping over themselves to catch them before giving them a firm-but-fair tackle! It is weird when you juxtapose it with all the darker undersides of the day (horrendous racism, rampant sexism, legalised homophobia, imperialism) I was born almost 30 years after this, but everything I see from the 60s in terms of the occasion, the crowds, the competetiveness, the number of title-winners in that decade, Britain´s first European Cups. And all of this before hooliganism properly set in. This surely has to be the Golden Age of British football? Would love to have seen it in person. It is a massive shame the FA Cup has lost its prestige.

The Days when this Cup ment something and teams did not give players a "REST" to the lead up to the final. It was a special day now it is teated just like any other match. Even the semi finals were special. Now! it always chase a European Trophy. I bet if the FA Cup winners had the opportunity to Gain a Position in the Champions League, English Clubs would respect this Trophy more. The European Champions Cup was just an add on now it dominates all competitions. Pity. What should happen is for Cup winners to be places in the Champions League.
