Great listening! After the superb season 1984-85, when Everton won the League title for the first time in 15 years, the following season was in the end really painful. The double went to the "wrong side" of the park, and moreover we were denied to compete in the European Champions Cup, which we would have been the favourites to win, and imo would have won it in 1986.
Cracking chat that. So much food for thought. Gav knows I disagree on a few things ... especially about the 86/87 campaign being easier on the eye than my beloved 84/85 season! But a wonderful dissection of a pivotal period in our Club's history. We're blessed to have a historian as gifted as The Gav'nor.
Fascinating from Gavin , look forward to reading ‘The End’ 👍 . Not sure I can agree that the European ban was not a more significant factor in the start of our decline - the opportunity to be European champions when we were widely regarded as the best team in Europe in the mid eighties.

So it could have been a treble for Everton!
Thanks really appreciated
