FA Cup games had moved over to ITV by the next time the Blues were on the box and the network showed a brace of defeats to Newcastle United.

In the past, the game being shown on one of the two main terrestrial channels would have been a really big deal as it would have guaranteed an audience of tens of millions but a saturation of television coverage of football, more diverse viewing habits and loss of lustre for the game’s oldest competition will all conspire to erode those figures here despite the magnitude of the tie. The Blues’ television debut came in the FA Cup but perhaps surprisingly it wasn’t for a final and was further back than many might realise.
Everton made their bow in front of the BBC cameras way back on February 7, 1948 when they featured in a fifth round tie against Fulham at Craven Cottage. The network showed a smattering of FA Cup games in the years just after the Second World War but all of them were in London grounds. This one finished 1-1 and went to extra time, with Tommy Eglington netting the Blues’ first televised goal and for the record, Everton would lose the replay in a rare Goodison Park defeat to the Cottagers a week later, going down 1-0 on Valentine’s Day in front of a bumper crowd of 71, 587. The Blues next three televised FA Cup appearances were all finals – in 1966, 1968 and 1984 – each of which were shown on both BBC and ITV.

All their hard work was undone though as they lost 1-0 to at home to Championship Reading in the fifth round with ESPN again broadcasting the game. The following season’s FA Cup matches were back on ITV and despite drawing 1-1 at home to Sunderland, a huge Blues following travelled up to the Stadium of Light for their quarter-final replay and roared Moyes’ men into a Wembley showdown against Liverpool with a 2-0 success. The semi-final was shown on ESPN and Evertonians won’t need reminding that despite taking the lead through Nikica Jelavic, their side capitulated against Dalglish’s struggled Reds, losing 2-1 as Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll struck. In 2013, Everton had four FA Cup games televised. First there was the 5-1 stroll at League Two Cheltenham Town in the third round on ESPN and then a far trickier tie with League One Oldham Athletic – who had previously knocked out Liverpool – in the fifth round.
Among all that there was the 1-0 extra time victory over Benitez’s Reds in their fourth round replay but armchair fans in many regions missed Dan Gosling’s dramatic late match-winner because ITV, who also showed the penalty shoot-out success against Manchester United in the semi-finals, had accidentally cut to a commercial break.

A couple of years later and another network had the FA Cup rights with ESPN showing a couple of more clashes against Chelsea. Meeting in the fourth round, both games, first at Goodison and then Stamford Bridge, finished 1-1 but Everton triumphed in the latter courtesy of a penalty shoot-out success.
Despite taking the lead through Paul Wilkinson, the Blues lost 3-1 in a fifth round tie at Plough Lane in 1987 but triumphed 1-0 in a Goodison Park quarter-final against ‘The Crazy Gang’ in 1989 thanks to Stuart McCall’s goal to knock out the holders. The BBC cameras were back focusing on Merseyside Derby fare when they showed the goalless FA Cup fifth round clash at Anfield in 1991. Curiously the famous 4-4 draw for the Goodison Park replay was Everton’s first appearance on Sky. The BBC televised the Blues’ 1-0 fourth round exit at Chelsea the following year when Clive Allen grabbed the only goal of the game and Tony Cottee was denied a late equaliser as Kevin Hitchcock saved his penalty 10 minutes from the end. Everton’s last three matches during their triumphant run to glory in the 1995 FA Cup – the club’s last trophy to date – were all shown on the BBC.
Frank Lampard rant, Moshiri arrival and greatest Everton goal you never sawThe prospect of going out live to the nation might not have the same resonance now as in days gone by but Everton’s FA Cup tie at Manchester United will now be shown on ITV. The game has been moved from its original Saturday slot to an 8pm kick-off on Friday, January 6 and given that it’s an all-Premier League clash in the third round and over a 12-year sequence between 2005-17, 58 consecutive matches in the competition featuring the Red Devils were televised, it probably comes as no surprise. Over the years, Everton have featured in 62 FA Cup ties televised in the UK and their record is currently finely balanced, reading, won 25, drawn 12 and lost 25.

Elland Road has not traditionally been much of a happy hunting ground for the Blues but they kicked off their defence of the trophy there with a 2-0 victory over Second Division Leeds United in the third round in 1985 thanks to a 40 th minute penalty from Graeme Sharp before Kevin Sheedy sealed their passage five minutes from the end. The two FA Cup final defeats to Liverpool in 1986 and 1989 were both shown on BBC with ITV also broadcasting the former but in between another Merseyside Derby FA Cup tie was shown – Everton’s 1-0 fifth round loss at Goodison in 1988 – along with another couple of matches in the competition, both against Wimbledon, all on the Beeb.
