Good Friday, Better Goalkeeping, and a Great Escape: Toffee Time Machine - Ed McCosh
The Blue Room - Everton FC PodcastShow Notes
Ed McCosh climbs aboard the Toffee Time Machine with Dave P to discuss three matches that, between them, capture almost everything it means to follow Everton.
For his league pick, Ed heads back to a bank holiday afternoon when the Blues did their work early and the result was settled by the time most fans had got up for their half-time pint. In the cup, he takes us to a European night when Everton stood firm to secure a memorable win. His wildcard is one every Evertonian will feel - a match that looked lost at the break, followed by a second half that turned despair into delirium.
Ed also explains what each game meant to him, where he was, and why these memories have outlasted everything that came after. Expect tension, nostalgia, and a reminder that with Everton, it’s never over until it’s over.

It's the one you've all been asking us about, so dive in. So much happened between July and December 2024 that it's a miracle we kept this to 183 minutes. This episode is supported by The Excelsior.
