Although Goodison Park: My Home is a series mostly dedicated to Everton players, we make a change of gear for part 4 as Chris Beesley speaks to Blues super fan Dr David France.Growing up in humble surroundings in Widnes and coming from a family of Evertonians stretching back five generations, the 75-year-old affectionately known as 'Dr Everton' is a retired oil and gas industry executive who sold his 10,000-item collection of Everton memorabilia to the club at a heavily discounted price so it could be kept for posterity while also founding the Everton Former Players’ Foundation to raise money for the physical and pastoral care of ex-professionals who have represented the club.He was also the founder and driving force behind the Gwladys Street Hall of Fame, the EFC Heritage Society, Everton War Memorials and has authored 19 books about Everton with proceeds donated to Merseyside charities.Making transatlantic trips to watch his beloved Blues play having moved to the USA several decades ago, David has watched many of Everton's greatest players over the years while also befriending lots of them through his projects.Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.Get exclusive Everton FC content - including podcasts, live shows and videos - everyday. Subscribe to the Royal Blue Everton FC YouTube Channel and watch daily live shows HERE: https://bit.ly/3aNfYavListen and subscribe to the Royal Blue Podcast for all your latest Everton FC content via Apple and Spotify:APPLE: https://bit.ly/3HbiY1ESPOTIFY: https://bit.ly/47xwdnYVisit the Liverpool ECHO website: https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/all-about/everton-fcFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LivEchoEFCFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@royal.blue.evertoFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LiverpoolEchoEFCLearn more about your ad choices.
