The Scottish gaffer led his side to a 2-0 win over Southampton in what was the Toffees' men's team's last game at Goodison Park, their home of 133 years.

They're moving to a brand new near-53k capacity ground at Bramley-Moore Dock which was recently confirmed to be named the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
After the emotional game ended, the boss was met by long-serving presenter Richard Keys, who was draped in an Everton scarf.
The 68-year-old was working for beIN Sports and has been part of countless broadcasting setups in his time, but his turn here as the man in the tunnel wasn't the smoothest.
He began the interview: "David, how was that?"
Moyes responded: "[It was good] because I was concerned if we'd have shut the back door today and hadn't won it we'd have felt terrible.
"Not our best but nevertheless we got the three points."
Keys interjected while he was still finishing his sentence: "I didn't mean the game I meant everything that surrounded the match.
"At what stage did you realise there was a football game being played here today?"
Moyes said: "It was probably only the last five minutes where I thought 'my goodness, I've just got to hope we get this done here'.
"But I have to say the noise inside the stadium and, you were witness to it, outside the stadium was unbelievable.
'Normally a bottle of red wine down' - Moyes unhappy at unusual kick-off time
"It cries out as a club which is desperate for good times and things to celebrate.
"If you look at the disappointments they've had over recent years this now looks like something everyone's looking forward to, a change of stadium.
"If I'd turned up for today's game I'd have thought this was for us winning the championship or us being in a cup final, it was amazing.
"We have to try and put us on the map in some way, I'll try.
"Let's be fair, we've had to try and pull the whole club up by the boot laces. Other people before me as well, other good managers.

They've waved goodbye to Goodison Park
"We've now got ourselves really in a good position, finished the season really strongly, so I'm hoping we can take the same atmosphere we had today down to the new stadium.
"But we'll need to perform the way we have done over the last few weeks."
Keys again jumped the gun with his response: "David, thank you, enjoy it and many congratulations, good to see you."
Moyes joked: "Good to see you... is this your first time?"
Keys laughed: "It might be the last!"
The ex-Manchester United boss looks ahead to another season in the Premiership as Everton can't finish lower than 14th.
Moyes will end the season above his both of his ex-clubs - United and West Ham, as the Red Devils and Europa League final opponents Spurs are destined to finish just above the relegation zone.

Joan Eardley Sketches of Glasgow street children to be sold at auction
Sketches depicting Glasgow street children by artist Joan Eardley will go on sale at auction next week. The 11 small pastel and charcoal drawings were selected from one of Eardley's sketchbooks which was given to a doctor after her death by her close friend Angus Neil, who died in 1992. Eardley is considered one of the great British artists of the 20th century and the collection is to be sold live online and in Edinburgh by auctioneers Lyon & Turnbull on June 5. The works depict studies of street children in Townhead for which she is best known, alongside sketches of Catterline on the north-east coast of Scotland where she lived with Mr Neil. The friends met at Scottish art school Hospitalfield House in Arbroath, Angus, in 1947 and Mr Neil would often stay in her Townhead studio for long periods of time. PA Media Row Of Windows, Townhead by Joan Eardley is among the lots going under the hammer When Eardley moved to Catterline, he helped renovate her cottage and became a fixture around the small fishing village. After the war, Mr Neil struggled with his mental health and Eardley became a pivotal figure in his life, looking out for him and helping him financially. When Eardley died of cancer in 1963 aged 42, a distraught Mr Neil was admitted to the psychiatric hospital Sunnyside Royal near Montrose. The sketchbook was given by Mr Neil to a GP in Glasgow in the 1960s, who had provided him with room and board during a breakdown, and has been treasured by the family ever since. The auction also includes four large works by Eardley, including Fishing Nets, Catterline, which is valued at £30,000-£50,000. It featured in a major exhibition of Eardley's work in the National Galleries of Scotland in 2016-17. Jeannie, valued at £40,000-£60,000, depicts an elderly lady, Jeannie Kelso, who was befriended by Eardley during holidays to the Isle of Arran in the early 1940s. Blue Jersey, which depicts a child holding her baby brother, is estimated to fetch between £20,000 and £30,000. A rare example of an early Eardley painting, Street Scene, from the 1940s, has a valuation of £7,000-£10,000. Charlotte Riordan, senior specialist at Lyon & Turnbull, said: 'These sketches epitomise the intuitive mark-making and consummate skill of Joan Eardley. To me, they also speak volumes about the woman herself; they're direct – blunt even – but clever and charismatic. A total original.'

Joe Harper: The transfer market Aberdeen boss Jimmy Thelin must focus on this summer
Aberdeen should look towards the Scottish market for exciting emerging talent during the summer transfer window. Manager Jimmy Thelin and his recruitment team are scouring the European leagues and beyond to strengthen the squad for next season. In the previous two transfer windows Thelin has bolstered his team with a host of impressive signings from overseas. However, the Dons must also look at Scotland because there are many hungry, ambitious young players ready to jump up and excel at the next level. A standout example of how looking to Scotland for talent can pay off there is Aberdeen's signing of Lewis Ferguson from Hamilton in 2018. Ferguson was only 18-years-old when the Dons secured him on a pre-contract in May 2018 as his deal with Hamilton was set to expire. The midfielder was sensational for Aberdeen across four seasons before moving to Italian top flight Bologna for £3million in summer 2022. Ferguson captained Bologna to Coppa Italia glory earlier this month, their first major trophy in more than 50 years. He was also named the best midfielder in Serie A in the 2023-24 season, which is a phenomenal accolade. A host of clubs have Ferguson on their radar with the view to a potential summer transfer window swoop with the midfielder valued at more than £20m. The meteoric rise of Ferguson is proof that the Scottish market can deliver gems. I signed for Aberdeen after chief scout Bobby Calder watched me score a lot of goals from the right-wing position with Morton. Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack has already said he will back Thelin to further strengthen the Scottish Cup winning team in the summer. As part of discussions to sign a target the Dons should play a video of the triumphant Scottish Cup win and the sensational homecoming parade. And say this is what you can experience if you sign on at Aberdeen. Aberdeen's Scottish Cup winning side have written their name in the club's history books and that of the national game with a sensational win. The Dons thoroughly deserved the silverware with a superb, disciplined performance full of passion and commitment. Boss Thelin's call to switch tactics from his preferred 4-2-3-1 to a 5-3-2 was a masterstroke that paid off. Celtic were restricted to only a couple of chances and although they had a lot of possession the Hoops were never allowed to do much with it. All four penalty-kicks taken by Aberdeen in the shoot-out were also amazing. After a 35-year wait the Red Army finally got to see their club crowned Scottish Cup champions at Hampden. It means so much to the supporters and there were many tears shed at the final and also the open-top bus parade through the city centre. I am so proud of not only the Aberdeen team but also the supporters. The Dons fans were magnificent at Hampden and decked their half of the stadium in a sea of red. They also out-sang the Celtic fans for the duration of the final and really drove on and inspired Aberdeen. Reward for Aberdeen is not only that beautiful trophy now proudly displayed at Pittodrie. The Reds also secured guaranteed European group stage action next action, which will come with a Uefa cash boost of around £5million. That glorious day when Aberdeen lifted the Scottish Cup will hopefully be the springboard to further success.

Rangers takeover completed as 49ers sweep into power with £20m pledge and vow to get club back to the top
The Ibrox club released a statement confirming they are now under new ownership and the fans are in raptures American investors 49ers Enterprises have finally completed their takeover of Rangers, vowing to pump £20million into the club to kick off their revolutionary plan to get the Ibrox side back to the top in Scotland. The stunning news comes three months after Record Sport first broke the bombshell exclusive story that US-based businessman Andrew Cavenagh – the new board chairman – was leading a consortium, backed by the investment group of the NFL giants, to buy a controlling stake of the Ibrox club. And now Rangers have revealed they are under new ownership in a deal they hope can transform their fortunes in their bid to get back of the Scottish game. The Ibrox side – still conducting a search for a permanent manager – signalled the start of a new era by issuing a statement on their club website which read: "Rangers Football Club is pleased to announce that a consortium of investors, led by Andrew Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises, has purchased a majority stake in the club, with approval from the Scottish FA. "The consortium will chart a new strategic vision for the club's future prioritising on-pitch performance and long-term financial sustainability. "The new leadership has committed to invest £20million into the club at this time, which will be subject to shareholder approval at the General Meeting on 23 June 2025. "Cavenagh, a business leader and healthcare executive, will serve as board chairman. He will work closely with Paraag Marathe, who joins the board as vice chairman and is the president of 49ers Enterprises, a sports investment entity also led by San Francisco 49ers CEO Jed York. "Cavenagh and Marathe have spent decades leading highly successful businesses and world-class sports brands and as part of the Board will oversee all aspects of the club in this next chapter." Andrew Cavenagh said: "We are deeply grateful for the trust placed in us by the Rangers board, shareholders, staff, and supporters. This club's history and traditions speak for themselves, but history doesn't win matches. "We know that the true way to honour the club's heritage will be to drive performance. Our focus is simple: elevate performance, deliver results, and bring Rangers back to where it belongs - at the top." Paraag Marathe said: 'At 49ers Enterprises, we have built a track record of sporting and business success, but our driving motivation is our deep connection to the clubs and communities we serve. We are excited to join Andrew and our other consortium of investors in a new era for this iconic club, and we are determined to build something that supporters can be proud of for years to come.' Reflecting the club's new leadership, Mark Taber, Andrew Clayton and Gene Schneur will join Cavenagh and Marathe as new members of the board. Patrick Stewart, Fraser Thornton, John Halsted, and George Taylor will remain on the board. Graeme Park, Julian Wolhardt, and Alastair Johnston are stepping down from the board with deep thanks from the club for their contributions. Fraser Thornton said: 'This new ownership phase represents a significant step forward for Rangers FC. "The incoming shareholders bring not only funding but also deep expertise in strategic planning, infrastructure development, and sporting excellence. 'On behalf of Rangers, I also want to put on record our appreciation to the outgoing board members who have selflessly served the club. I also want to acknowledge our major shareholders whose backing has brought the club to this point, the vast majority of whom have chosen to reinvest in the club and continue with us on the next stage of the journey. 'From my earliest conversations with Paraag and Andrew, I have been excited and confident in the shared vision and what it could mean for the future of Rangers. Our focus now is on the hard work ahead, preparing thoroughly for the new season, appointing the right men's head coach, and ensuring we have the structures in place to support success on the pitch.'
