Steve Ferns 6 Posted 25/01/2020 at 18:53:51 Congrats mate. Keep working hard and you've every chance of making it. Mike Gaynes 7 Posted 25/01/2020 at 18:55:53 Those hands make him look like the Mickey Mouse guy at Disneyland who poses for pictures with the kids.Guess he won't be punching out crosses with those, will he? Simon Smith 8 Posted 25/01/2020 at 19:19:33 Haha Mike, beat me to it! Jon Withey 9 Posted 25/01/2020 at 20:23:03 He's a tryer that Tyrer. Good luck. Steven Astley 10 Posted 25/01/2020 at 21:23:20 Some set of eyebrows, those... Chris Williamson 11 Posted 25/01/2020 at 21:44:15 Good luck to you mate please be better than that useless bell cheese we have between the sticks at the moment. Had a few tonight in town with good match going people and everyone to a man says Pickford must go, surely he will be first out the door at the end of the season. ps: Niasse makes Rod Belfitt look like Platinni. John Dean 12 Posted 25/01/2020 at 22:00:57 I enjoyed watching him play in the FA Youth Cup. He has a style all his own which included patrolling way outside his area when the ball was not in Everton's half and saving penalties by standing a yard behind the goal line and jumping forward as the kick was taken (it was effective but I think that action is banned now). And he does like to vent his annoyance when things go wrong. I think the last home-grown goalie to make it for us was Andy Rankin so we are due another. Tony Everan 13 Posted 25/01/2020 at 22:13:18 I've seen those hands before. Wallace and Gromit?Joking aside, best of luck to Harry, keep up the hard graft. Brian Cleveland 14 Posted 26/01/2020 at 07:06:29 Looks quite handy... Eric Myles 15 Posted 26/01/2020 at 09:54:37 Mile #8, Tony #14, they're Mario's hands!! Len Hawkins 16 Posted 26/01/2020 at 10:25:05 Also being a supporter of St Helens Rugby League, there was a lad who was a goalkeeper at Everton called Steve Tyrer. He didn't make it in football so came over to Saints. He did play in the first team a few times but is now in the lower leagues... I wonder if they are related? Clive Rogers 17 Posted 26/01/2020 at 11:32:38 Len, did he have big hands and eyebrows? Len Hawkins 18 Posted 26/01/2020 at 11:53:42 Clive I can confirm he had hands and eyebrows so I suppose that narrows down the possibility of being related. Steve was born in St Helens but possibly could have Crosby connections.Steve Tyrer, Halifax RLFC Rudi Coote 19 Posted 26/01/2020 at 12:45:42 Best of luck, Harry. Here's wishing you a long career.. Jimmy Salt 20 Posted 26/01/2020 at 19:50:20 Who's old enough to remember Kenny Everett's big hands??? Rob Hooton 21 Posted 27/01/2020 at 18:09:18 God loves a Tryer Dan Nulty 22 Posted 27/01/2020 at 18:15:02 *Tyrer Add Your Comments In order to post a comment, you need to be logged in as a registered user of the site. » Log in now Or Sign up as a ToffeeWeb Member — it's free, takes just a few minutes and will allow you to post your comments on articles and Talking Points submissions across the site.
