West was an athletic strong bouncy and reliable goalkeeper and probably ranks alongside Ted Sagar and Neville Southall as one of the best Everton goalkeepers. West had a good rapport with Liverpool fans. It became traditional at Anfield 'derby' matches for a Liverpool fan to jump from the Kop and present West with a handbag before the match. West, along with Chelsea's Peter Bonetti, specialised in a one-armed throw which could reach similar distances to a drop kick. During long periods of inactivity he would often occupy himself by cleaning the mud off his boots on his goalposts. At the end of a match, all four posts would bear signs that Gordon West had been there! In 1969 he made 3 appearances but declined to go to Mexico as #3. He made 402 appearances for Everton and retired in 1973. Gordon WEST | 1962-1970 | PES Stats Database (Golden Era Backup)
