Everton Giant - Year Inducted: 2007Colin Harvey is a 100 per cent Everton Legend, having served the club as a player, coach and manager during a wonderful career.Born into a passionate Evertonian family in November 1944, he made his senior debut at the age of 18 in the European Cup against Inter Milan at the Stadio San Siro in 1963.Typically, he gave an excellent account of himself and a truly great Everton career was launched.It was a further two seasons before young Harvey could describe himself as a regular but once established he became a permanent fixture.He won an FA Cup winners medal in 1966, after scoring the semi-final winner, and was back at Wembley two years later as part of the Toffees team that lost the final against West Brom.The 1969-70 season was a glorious one for Everton as the team stormed to the title, playing some exquisite football along the way - much of it in the middle of the park with the midfield trio of Harvey, Howard Kendall and Alan Ball proved far too good for most opponents.Ball, of course, was also an England legend but the fact that Harvey won just one international cap and Kendall didn't win any is still a source of utter bewilderment amongst Evertonians.That 1970 Championship success should have been the springboard for Everton greatness but for one reason or another it never happened and injury caught up with Colin Harvey.Dubbed 'The White Pele' by the adoring Goodison faithful, Harvey joined Sheffield Wednesday in 1974 but after an uneventful stay in Yorkshire he was invited back to his spiritual home by Billy Bingham with a remit to coach the youth team.He oversaw the emergence of the likes of Kevin Ratcliffe and Steve McMahon and was promoted to reserve coach in 1981.
