Established in 1878, Everton-Meyerside’s first Football Club
has been at the forefront of soccer in England during its 125 years
in existence. A founder member of the Football League in 1888 and
the first club to win the league championship trophy in 1891, Everton
has established a tradition of achievement which has been vigorously
maintained throughout the years.
Another four championships came before the Second World War along
with 2 FA Cup wins but the post war years were fallow for the Merseysiders
and they dropped into the 2nd division for 3 years in the early
1950s.
The glory days returned in the 1960s just before their neighbours
Liverpool took a stranglehold on the title. This dominance infuriated
Evertonians and their saviour appeared in the guise of Howard Kendall.
To begin with, he appeared to be able to do nothing about the inexorable
slide but after winning a cup tie at Oxford, Everton turned the
corner and began to challenge Liverpool for the major honours.
1984 brought the FA Cup to Goodison Park and the following season,
the league championship returned.
Through the years, Everton has won nine League Championships and
five FA Cups.
