What happens to his and the others that are there once the move is completed?
in Spain one summer.
My mum's family were all from the area around The Friary..
It turned out my mum used to work with Johns wife's mum and my Aunt knew Johns family who were originally from around that way and I used to sit next to John's wife ( Joan) in school.
Anyway my Uncle Fred was a big Evertonian and it was he who introduced me to Goodison.
Anyway they all got on like a hose on fire and met up there daily and continued to keep in touch afterwards.
Anyway,my dad used to tell me that nearly every night other people would ask if that was John Bailey and couldn't believe the amount of drinks that was consumed by him.
He told me that John was employed at Everton to just to keep up morale... because he was such good fun.
But I do remember seeing him going around bars in the city centre on his own in the early 80s
Sad news. Part of a brilliant team.
RIP
