Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Alan Mullery was skipper in place of Bobby Moore, who had been suspended by
his West Ham club following the 'Blackpool Affair' (Bobby along with West
Ham team-mates Jimmy Greaves and Clyde Best had been caught drinking in a
nightclub on the eve of an FA Cup tie they thought was going to be
cancelled because of snow – the match went ahead and West Ham lost).
Martin Chivers, Roy McFarland and Everton team-mates Joe Royle and Colin
Harvey made their debuts in a European championship qualifying match
played on an iron-hard pitch that Gordon Banks described as 'the worst I
have ever seen.' It had a sand surface that had been rolled flat by a
steam-roller. Martin Peters scored the only goal after half a dozen
chances had been missed.
