How times have changed. Here's a humble man who did his job well and with all his heart and soul. His success didn't change him or his wicked sense of humour. He was Brian Clough's role model and they made a fine pair.

Compare them today with the likes of Ferguson, Wenger et al. All up there own arses and miserable twats to a man.

Oh for the old days.

I really don't see a great difference between a Utd fan from Salford or a Liverpool fan fron L4. A football club should be of the people and for the people and not a plaything for the mega rich elite. The economy is going to implode in about 18 months time. Both our clubs are saddled with enormous debts that WE the supporter will have to service. It is nothing more than economic raping our respective clubs by parasites.

0:45 This 'great communion between players and supporters' would probably been labelled 'horrific scenes of hooliganism' nowadays by the Murdoch brain washing machine called The Media. One can get almost suicidally nostalgic when one sees scenes like these. What happened to our freedom? Our most basic freedom? The freedom of not having to follow every single rule meticulously.

@metaldigger -- Ive not found one red fan who has told me or talked shit about or cared less for I am from a different country. I still find that socialist feeling among us.we are and always be the mighty reds !!! YNWA

@KopiteP250505-Well said mate.I am frm India & a die hard red.so called fans of other clubs like man u,chelsea or arsenal ask me how do u get to talk to lfc fans from Liverpool.In fact I have a few lfc fans in L'Pool who have told me to be their guest if I make a visit to watch the reds at Anfield.

@thomyboas Why d'you give a shit about that? Shanks was like me, and all proper LFC fans... a Socialist. So I like to think that even if the dick head Royal family had offered him a knighthood, he would have turned it down. A knighthood means fuck all in football, cos' of who grants it. As long as we Liverpool fans see him as a hero, who the fuck cares how the Royals see him? Shanks and Paisley are legends to us - that is all that matters.

FUCK THE ROYALS, FUCK ENGLAND AND FUCK BRITAIN!

Its enoying that Bill Shankly And Bob Paislay newer GOT SIR in front of their name!! Bob paislay won more in 9 years than any other manager in world! he won 3 european cups in 6 tries! and people are saying that SAF is good?! GTFO manu supporters. 6 league titles in 9 tries? srsly its impossible to beat that! Fantastic player aswell! Its so enoying, giving titles to all random people but not one of the gr8test managers ever lived, if not the gratest!!!!

ee-aye-addio starts the chorus.
