Ian Mills & Gary Judge are delighted to be joined by ex Everton player, and Evertonian, Mark Ward in an Everton FC special. Mark gives us almost 90 minutes of his time as we take a look back at his career. Mark tells us about his memories growing up an Evertonian before his pain at being released by the club, before starting over in non league football. We talk about how Joe Royle brought him to Oldham, his great spell at West Ham before a meeting with Howard Kendall had him sign for Manchester City after being told Howard's thoughts about Spain!

Mark's pride & passion is obvious, as he talks us through signing for Everton under Howard Kendall, and the story behind it. His home debut against Arsenal is covered alongside some memorable stories involving his clash with Mike Walker, shooting Barry Horne on a night out, Billy Kenny and of course his goal against Liverpool in 1993.

Nothing is off limits, as Mark tells us about his time in prison, how he battled through his spell with a positive attitude and some hilarious tales such as how his cell resembled William Hill on a Saturday afternoon!

A must listen for all Evertonian's, and football fans in general as we revisit Mark's career and beyond. *explicit content*
