Everton have announced the funeral for Howard Kendall will be held at the Anglican Cathedral on October 29th.

The club's greatest ever manager died suddenly on Saturday at the age of 69.

He won the title with the club as a player in 1969 as part of the famous 'Holy Trinity' along with Alan Ball and Colin Harvey, but undoubtedly his best achievements came when he returned to Goodison Park in 1981.

Within three years he had won the First Division championship, repeating the feat in 1987. The club also won the FA Cup and European Cup-Winners' Cup during an era in which the Toffees became a powerhouse of British football.

The service will take place at the Anglican Cathedral at 1pm on Thursday 29th October.
