Les Harrod – Sad News.

I am sad to report the passing of another of the ESCLA originals, Les Harrod. Les died on Friday last (Jan 30th) after a short illness. He was a close friend of Nick Brennan, current and long time ESCLA treasurer. Nick recalls it was 49 years ago this week that he met Les on the train with ESCLA to Villa away and they have been friends ever since. The photo of Les was taken before the Fulham away game last year, in a Fulham pub and Nick will be in the same pub this Saturday with other friends to remember him and have a few drinks. If you knew Les and would like to know which pub, e-mail me (peter@leachweb.co.uk).

 

Premier League Match Tickets at Goodison 2022/23

For your consideration – we are not pushing EFC membership schemes !

Basically every Premier League game at Goodison this season will be sold out. Season Ticket sales already account for a situation in which there are very limited tickets available. Everton’s membership scheme offers first refusal on match tickets – and it is extremely unlikely match tickets will make it to general sale to non-members of the scheme.

Paddy McGrath

Sad news reaches us that one of our original ESCLA members, Paddy McGrath has died.
Paddy had many friends in the Everton community nationwide but ESCLA’s regular travellers from the 1970’s and 80’s will have many fond and interesting memories of him. On behalf of ESCLA I would like to send deepest sympathy and condolences to Paddy’s family for their sad loss.

Nick Brennan has sent me a couple of links Paddy’s friends will like to visit –
