Book excerpt: Traditionally one of the Big Five of English football, Everton haven't enjoyed too much success in recent years but they are currently undergoing revival under the management of David Moyes and Bill Kenwright, the club's owner. Older than Liverpool, Everton have nearly as rich a history. Nine time winners of the English League title and five time winners of the FA Cup, they've sent out some of the greatest characters in English football on to the pitch at Goodison. From Dixie Dean, Tommy Lawton and Alex Scott through Alan Ball, Bob Latchford and Howard Kendall to Gary Lineker, Duncan Ferguson and Wayne Rooney, few clubs can boast as many people with so much to say for themselves. Everton have a proud tradition and a very loyal support, and this book aims to capture the flavour of both.
