When Tommy Met Joe

In October's edition of the Everton magazine, we featured an article in which former teammates but close friends Tommy Wright and Joe Royle took at trip down memory lane while catching up at Goodison Park.

In light of Tommy becoming the latest Everton Giant, here is that article in full, as two Toffees greats discuss Howard Kendall, their close bond and how a conversation out of the blue with Harry Catterick saw Tommy become a full-back!

Tommy Wright and Joe Royle were two of four ever-presents in Everton’s glorious 1969/70 title-winning team (John Hurst and Gordon West were the other two) and we brought them back together recently to enjoy once again the atmosphere of the home dressing room.
