Final Day Dramatic Everton Games

The latest Official Everton Podcast is all about last day dramas! Evertonians have had more than their fair share of mixed emotions on the final day of a football season and host Darren Griffiths is joined by Dave Prentice and Gavin Buckland to look back at some of them. We feature the last-gasp escapes of 1994, 1998, 2022 and 2023 – and hear from one of the goalscoring heroes, Gareth Farrelly. We learn which future Blues hero made his professional debut as a teenager for Arsenal during the very last game at Goodison Park that wasn’t filmed! And which Everton player is the only one to have ever scored the very last goal of a Premier League campaign – a 93rd minute winner? We also reveal that the legendary Denis Law goal for Manchester City against Manchester United in 1974 did NOT relegate United – Mike Lyons did it a week earlier! And when did Everton get their first penalty-kick of the season with just ten minutes of the final game to go! We also speak about Duncan Ferguson’s last goal for Everton with his last kick of the last game against West Bromwich Albion and a wonder strike against Chelsea from Jermaine Beckford. And, of course, April 1978 when Bob Latchford just about reached his famous target of 30 league goals!
