Just before the arrival of Kevin Keegan and Steve Heighway. Keegan in particular transformed the forward line; before that it was a case of lumping the ball into Toshack and hoping for the best. Now, if Keegan and Heighway were playing who knows what would have happened?

I'm a football man who's been going to the football for almost 50 years now however I must confess that I'm not a fan, but more importantly, I despise the LFC fanbase. Modern day Liverpool fans are so fickle and arrogant. Tbh I could say exactly the same about other clubs especially Villa, Arsenal and The Scum from Bellend Road. "Most" LFC fans have no "real" understanding of their history and how important Shanks was to them. They rave about Paisley, Dalglish and Gerrard when none of them can hold a candle to the great man Bill Shankly. Without Shanks, Paisley would never have been as successful and Dalglish wouldn't have had the career he did at Liverpool. Same could easily be said for Gerrard. Shanks had the personality , grit, character and brains to move mountains and motivate men. None of the other 3 had those skills in such abundance! Then there's this political nonsense which is spouted by Liverpool fans nowadays. It's football, not politics. Tbf Glasgow Celtic are going down the same road and it's very sad. I know many Celtic fans who hate where their club and it's fanbase are headed. Someone needs to grasp the nettle @ Anfield before too much damage is done. They have very quickly become THE most hated club in England, boo-ing the National Anthem and worse boo-ing the minutes silence which was reduced to just over 25 seconds, when Queen Elisabeth died! How can a club who RIGHTLY expects silence to remember the 97 Hillsborough Victims, not show the same respect back? If Shanks was around today I can assure you it would not be tolerated!

The Inter Cities Fairs Cup was not run by U.E.F.A. furthermore the Inter Cities Fairs Cup stemmed from Trade Fairs in Cities hence its name ... Only one Team could represent a City in that outdated competition. The U.E.F.A. Cup, meaning the Union European Football Association was much better and any team/club could represent a City, so a club was not barred just because another team qualified to play as well.

I was at this game & the return. Liverpool had a lot of possession but somehow never really threatened. Two things stand out to me. Leeds playing out all along the back four and back again as Liverpool pressed hard. So good the whole ground clapped. Commonplace now but defenders didn’t do that then. The other thing I remember is the goal. It was at the kop end and from where we were in the anfield road it looked like an OG

What is seldom mentioned is how canny Bill Shankly was spotting a player as a spectator. The January in 1969 was snow bound and an FA Cup 4rth Round game between Everton and Bristol Rovers was moved from a Saturday to midweek because of snow. Liverpool had a game on the Saturday. I was at Goodison for the FA Cup tie with snow piled around the perimeter, which under floodlights looked dramatic. It was reported Bill Shankly was in the Everton directors box, which he often visited. At the time Everton were going really well and faced a difficult task trying to score against a very strong defence from the third division. The two central defenders played brilliantly and kept Everton at bay. Joe Royle got a late goal to win the tie. But Larry Lloyd and Stuart Taylor had marked Joe out of the game. At the time Brian Labone was 29 and though England's first choice would need replacing. Bill Shankly saw enough that night to sign Larry Lloyd some months later. who went on to win titles with Liverpool and Notts Forest. Then in January 1970 Tranmere used Goodison Park for an FA Cup tie v Scunthorpe A player named Kevin Keegan was in the Scunthorpe side that night and may have escaped the attention of the Everton board, but probably not Liverpool who signed him in May 1971 And the rest is history !

@fisherpeter695Ай бұрын
@@darganx Probably so, given the talent they recruited. However, back in the late 1960s TV coverage was minimal and Bristol Rovers were a third division team when they faced Everton in 1969. It was well known that Bill Shankly attended mid week games at Goodison when LFC had no games, and the first glimpse of Larry Lloyd was by Bill at Goodison. Anyone around in 1969 will know top clubs had reserve, A and B teams from which they mainly drew the players from for the first team.

My grandfather spoke about this era and often said that fans of both clubs would support each other whenever they played teams from the South. Sadly after Munich and the subsequent rise of United to become the first English team to win the European Cup, fans of Liverpool became resentful of United. This manifested in a particular song which was sung vociferously by Liverpool supporters ( and tbf some from other clubs). This is the precise reason that United fans suddenly viewed Liverpool very differently, along with Leeds. We hadn't seen this kind of "Sick Chanting" before in English football and let's not kid ourselves, Liverpool & Leeds United were very much at the forefront of this change! I'm absolutely certain that Shanks would have been totally disgusted by the behaviour of Liverpool fans during this period. Contrary to many commentators, the genuine hatred which is now apparent has nothing to do with the red herrings about competing cities or the Manchester Ship Canal. This relationship will never change in my lifetime and probably not for a very, very long time. I wish it had never happened but now it has, some things cannot be forgiven imo! ps. I really liked this video. Very interesting and informative 👍

My first match was Manchester City vs Liverpool in 1968 at Maine Road. I think City were champions, it was maybe October that year, and we won 0-2, Bobby Graham with both. That's as far as I remember. I was with my Dad, my uncle and I don't think my big brother was there. I would have been 7. I might well be wrong on some of that, but I remember the occasion.
