Liverpool news: Fan views on best memories at Goodison Park

We asked for your favourite Merseyside derby memories before Wednesday’s final Goodison Park meeting between Liverpool and Everton.

Here are some of your replies:

Peter: It was 6 December 1969. I was 13 years old. Nil-nil at half time. Minutes after the break, Emlyn Hughes scored from a ball from Cally [Ian Callaghan] – 0-1, it was anyone’s game. Then it happened. A cross came over from Thommo [Peter Thompson] but Everton full back Sandy Brown had it covered. With a spectacular diving header he sent the ball into his own net. I was at the front and could see the round, muddy mark of the ball on the right side of his forehead for the rest of the game. A great game, a great win for Liverpool at Goodison. But, all we were talking about for weeks, months perhaps even years after was Sandy Brown’s amazing own goal.

Simon: I was nine and went to the derby at the beginning of the 1966-67 season. To see Ray Wilson and Roger Hunt parading the recently won World Cup is a vision that I’ll never forget.

Stephen: Went to Goodison as a Reds fan in 2001 – Riise with his run and Gerrard with his first derby goal at Goodison. Won 3-1, sat in top tier of the main stand – wow that was steep. Had to climb up the steps, was a ground to behold in the 80s. Can understand leaving but that Goodison crowd always is mental.

Andrew: When the all-time record goalscorer for Liverpool scored four goals at Goodison Park. Kopites still sing about that night 40 odd years on.
