 BIOSKETCH
 
A member of last season's Youth Cup winning side, Adam Farley was added to the Premiership Squad in December 1998, and thrown into the fray for his first-team debut during the second half of a televised match at Derby County in February 1999. Normally a centre-half, the 19-year-old came in at right wing-back following a back-line shuffle forced by a calf injury to Unsworth.

And that was it. Adam suffered a broken cheekbone in an Under-19s match against Crystal Palace in March, and was out for the rest of the season. However, he survives the summer of fiscal cuts at Goodison, and may become more involved during Walter Smith's second season at Goodison Park.

However, he is no longer a regular first choice at reserve level, and now seems to be even further from making it into the first team during the 1999-2000 season.  In October, his name slid ominously off the Premiership Squad list and he seems to be mostly an unused sub for Everton Reserves.  In May 2000, he was released by the club.
