I suffer with advanced Glaucoma, myself so, I know were he is coming from. A truly terrible eye decease that can effect anyone. I already know about the charity and it's an extremely worthwhile cause. Let's hope more on ToffeeWeb get their hands in their pocket.
Good luck, Dave, mate.

Remember Jack, the rolled down socks, impish grin, step overs before we knew what step overs were. Dave Thomas ... My first EFC hero, even ahead of Big Bob Latch. One of the six big quandaries in my Everton life is: Why, in his perfect prime, was Dave sold to Wolves?
To end as I began Good luck Jack Cross, mate.

I could never fathom why Dave Thomas was sold myself. He was only with us for two seasons I think. Probably money at the crux of it knowing Everton.
Like Pat Nevin, always had is socks down. Another great player.
Don't tell anyone but my all time great winger, was Peter Thompson.

Read the story and particularly the example his dad set him. Imagine that happening in the greedy current game?
