#OnThisDay 1995 Everton won The FA Cup for the 5th time. Paul Rideout scored the only goal of the game as Joe Royle’s Toffees beat Man United 1-0 at Wembley. What are your memories? #EFC#FACup@NevilleSouthall@Josephparkins18
Just six months after taking over an Everton side rooted to the bottom of the Premiership, Joe Royle guided them to FA Cup glory.
On 20/05/1995, his men defeated favourites Manchester United 1-0, ensuring Alex Ferguson would end the season empty-handed.
Paul Rideout scored the winner, but Everton owed everything to the heroic defensive display of veterans Dave Watson and Neville Southall.
The best side in England in 1985 was clearly Everton.
On 15th May, they attempted to add a European title to their domestic dominance.
They faced SK Rapid Wien in Rotterdam and, although the Austrians held out for nearly an hour, the Toffees eventually went through the gears to triumph 3-1.
08/05/1999:
Everton’s Premier League safety is confirmed in style with a 6-0 win over West Ham.
A Kevin Campbell hat-trick makes it 9 goals in 5 games for the on-loan star - Everton winning 4 of those 5 games.
#OnThisDay 1994 Everton came from 2-0 down v Wimbledon to win 3-2. Goals from Graeme Stuart(2) & Barry Hooorne & we were safe. Just 31,297 at Goodison Park due to the Park End closed. What’s your memory? @Anderslimpar777@NevilleSouthall#EFC#Everton
