Brian Harris Signs Copies of His New Book
One
of the Everton Greats of the 50's & 60's, Unlike other run of the mill Football books, Brian goes behind the scenes & tells the reader about what went on with the players on away trips, the pranks, the laughs warts & all. Of all the football books published recently, this is the one that is a bit different & worth every penny of the £15.00 Brian told bluekipper.com "I've been asked to do a book a few times before, but the fans already know how many games you've played, so when I met Chris Westcott, we decided to stick to the stories, and what happened off the pitch." Brian was the player, who put the policeman's hat on at the 1966 FA Cup final when Eddie Cavanagh ran onto the pitch. He told us about rooming with Jimmy Gabrial on away trips. "I brought a bottle of wine on the away trips just to have a glass on the Friday night before a game. Well Jimmy didn't want to know, but I persuaded him to have glass. We did the same the night before the FA Cup Final, but Jimmy said: ' This is the most important game of our lives. You can't have wine, but we did & it calmed our nerves. Tommy Wright had a terrible time sleeping, but Jimmy & me slept well. When we were 2-0 down. Jimmy turned to me and said: 'You and your fucking wine'. I said to him come on lets get on with the game, and as they say the rest is history." (05/05/04) |
