      Without you, we would never have become the most successful British football club.

      I'll never forget the Legend that is Bill Shankly, he made Liverpool Football Club what it is today - the most successful club in English Football.

      I was there at your funeral Bill, and you will always hold a special place in my heart.

      RIP Bill - You will never be forgotten.

      RIP Sir William Shankly.

      The best manager, bar none, in the history of English football.

      The godfather of Liverpool.
      I had no idea he had been knighted. Made my day. Is there a book or website that has his quotes/quips? I recall when I was 10 or so, (40 plus plus years ago) he allegedely told his barber : Everton" when asked if he wanted anything of the top. Is there a cd/video I can purchase of his "highlights" ,similar to some LFC VCRs' I have?
       Sir William Shankly, don't look down, you will not be amused. RIP

      Just finished reading his autobiography that only got re released for sale @ the club shop recently and is amazing how true his words are even now, 20 odd years later. Almost as if times haven't changed.
      A must read for any true liverpool fan

      R.I.P. Bill Shankly,how I wish for the days when you first arrived at Anfield and led this club to so much glory,who could forget winning the second division,the first division in 1964 and 1966 and the euphoria you created when you brought the F.A.Cup home to Anfield for the first time in 1965 then slaughtered Inter Milan a few days later.To anyone who never saw the REDS play prior to the 1990s you do not know what you missed.In Shanks day L.F.C. was a club not a franchise like it is today.

      Great man, great manager, true socialist
      If the great man was still around I wonder what his open letter to Mr.Hicks would read like.
      RIP Sir Bill

      Did anybody see the documentary on Bill Shankly tonight?

      It was absolutely superb and covered his whole time at Liverpool from when he first arrived in 1959 to when he died in 1981, there were some moments I'd not seen before and is well worth watching.

      It's called Shankly - nature's fire, on for an hour and a half and done by BBC Scotland, it was on tonight on channel 162 on Virgin .

      A must for any Liverpool fan, brought back some fabulous memories, what a man he was.

      Bought my dad the DVD for Christmas last year and  We have all watched it numerous times.
      As you say it’s an excellent watch and something I’ll never tire of watching (like anything involving our club).
      The importance of the man should never be forgotten.

      They don't make make them like you anymore Bill, you would hate today's world, full of greed and self righteousness, this is not your world, you lived in the best days, where everyone knew there place, knew what was what and rarely rose above it, sadly the socialism you preached & craved for is no more, but we are still here Bill, we're still fighting,  and it is still here at Anfield,
      We have a new messiah now, a German fella called Jürgen, and you will be pleased to know he has the same philosophy as your great self, he too believes that we are one and the same,  that we all work together, and when we do we will create good things, he's a socialist just I like us Bill, he gets us, same as you did, we have already conquered the bloody world Bill, and we are becoming your Bastion of invincibility,
      God Bless you Bill Shankly, your gone, but never ever forgotten. YNWA


      PS, Everton are still sh*te !
