Comments (3)
Hello,
I hope you can help me my deceased father (1945) JACK/JOHN EVANS apparently played for the Everton reserves at some stage we believe but I have scant information. All of our family would love to know whether it was the case that he did play for Everton Reserves.
He was born in 1904 so I presume it would have been 1920-30. Don't Know is there any way we could find out. PLEASE?
He did win medals, I beleive a GOLD one and others in his collection. Alas we don't have any.
I did e mail a few months ago to an Everton Site but NO reply ... could you please at least answer if you can. We are all getting older now and would like to pass some info to our Grandchilren. Thanking you so Very Much

However, seeing as he was born in 1904, that would mean he was 14/15 when he played!
Unfortunately, I don't have any extensive information with regards to the reserves (it's difficult enough getting first team information!)
As regards his medals, it is possible that at least one of them may have been a Liverpool Senior Cup winners medal, as Everton won the competition quite a few times during that period. Also, it may be possible that he was a member of the Central League championship side in 1939 (along with a certain William Ralph Dean!)
