Fans of Everton young and old are acutely aware of the distinct lack of trophies in the last couple of decades. With the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down football, sports and life as we know it, the Everton Classic Game Rewind is an opportunity to look back and even for a bit escape the harsh realities of today.
There was no better place to start than the 1995 FA Cup Final, a game that the Blues won against all odds despite a horrendous start to the season that resulted in a mid-season managerial sacking and a miraculous Cup run that embodied everything we love about Everton Football Club.
So from Friday-Sunday, we’re going to act like this is a normal football weekend, only the clock has been turned back to 19th to 21st May 1995, and we’re going to cover the FA Cup Final much like we do every Everton fixture.
