Trevor Steven Special: Memories of Life at Everton | Goodison Park: My Home

#EFC #EvertonFootballClub #evertonfc
Trevor Steven, the player who scored the goal that produced arguably the loudest roar in the Grand Old Lady’s history, is Chris Beesley’s latest guest on Goodison Park: My Home. Steven netted the goal that clinched Everton’s place in the 1985 European Cup-Winners’ Cup final when he sealed the 3-1 win over Bayern Munich in what is widely regarded as Goodison Park’s greatest-ever night.

Born in Berwick-upon-Tweed, Steven recalls his early football memories, growing up close to England’s border with Scotland, before getting his big break in the professional ranks at Burnley, where he played alongside a previous Goodison Park: My Home guest Martin Dobson. Having been snapped up by fellow North Easterner Howard Kendall for £300,000 in 1983, Steven’s first season on Merseyside finished with him delivering the cross for Andy Gray’s goal to clinch the 2-0 victory over Watford in the FA Cup final.

The following season, the midfielder was part of Everton’s most-successful side with a memorable goal at Tottenham Hotspur in the title run-in as well as scoring both in the semi-final second leg and final in Europe. Steven then went on to become top scorer in a second Blues’ League Championship-winning side in 1987 before departing Goodison after the 1989 FA Cup final.

Now 61, Steven, who in 1991 commanded the joint-highest fee for a British player at the time when he moved from Rangers to Marseille for £5.5million, also delivers an important message about how through his work with charity Mindflow, he is trying to use football to help improve mental health in the construction industry.
