There's no way I'm any way a fan of Liverpool football club, as they have caused me too much grief as a Manchester United fan (who was born in Liverpool) over the years, but a do respect talent and class such as Kenny Daglish, and this man - the great Bill Shankly, who was Liverpool manager up until 1974. He exuded class, commitment, working class community values, and a fervent belief in Socialism, and formed the great Liverpool side of the early 1970's in his own image. What a man.
Luckily we had been blessed with Sir Matt Busby, who was of very similar (if not identical) beliefs.Both titans of the game.
