Brilliant documentary. especially with brian clough hosting.

[@Blizdegs]

Well said! I think it is nauseating the amount of adulation Ferguson gets when someone like Bob Paisley who won so many trophies in such a short period of time does not get the recognition he deserves. No silly mind games, no shouting his gob off at the media and blaming the ref when his team loses.. That is how a manger should conduct himself Fergie!

[@RohitSharma-mi8gt]

Also played in a far more tough league imo. In the 90’s When fergie was with Utd, the league was weak let’s be honest. Everton and Liverpool had fallen away. Newcastle might challenge the odd time. The paradox being that because of the commercial structure winning the so called new PL would generate the greatest windfall for any winner compared to winners of the past. United benefitted from that. When money came in from Chelsea and arsenal that’s when they had problems. Fergie was a great managers obviously but to say others can’t even touch him is tosh

[@murchuan8782]

you must be glad you got that off your chest... i'll tell ya what is nauseating is the likes of you going around telling us what pisses you off...no one gives phuck about what you think. you should write to fergi and express your feelings in person and offer your advice to him.... ya ponce ya

[@majorthestbernard5831]

Different times. Personally, I also think Cloughie was up there with the best of them.

[@ninnnnnnnnnnnnn]

Greatest football manager of all times!

[@davefelmer5832]

29 less trophies than Sir Alex Ferguson, who is rated above him in literally every study and table. Are you joking?

[@ninnnnnnnnnnnnn]

Dave Felmer Cant compare them like that, Fergie was manager of MU for 27 year and Paisley for 9 years!! Paisley won 20 trophies in only 9 year! 3 CL in 9 years!!! Fergie couldnt do it in 3 decades!! So im not joking!! ;)

[@davefelmer5832]

Yes you can and everyone does. That's why SAF is rated number 1 by any table, documentary and TV show. Idiot. SAF won 29 more trophies and more of EVERY individual honour except for 1 European Cup less which was because Paisley had it far easier in Europe. He only had to win 2 games to qualify for the semi finals whereas SAF had to win 10! Plus the level of teams is better now. SAF is better by absolute miles.

[@ninnnnnnnnnnnnn]

Dave Felmer Why do mancs watch videos abt greatest manager of all time, Bob Paisley?? Are you that obsessed with Liverpool? Its sooo easy to call someone a idiot on the internet, but its so hard to do it face to face, trust me, you wouldnt even dare!! Dont give a shit how CL looked back then, Paisley won it 3 times in 9 years, thats all what counts!! If Paisley was manager for much longer God knows how many trphies he would won!!

[@CHRISDABAHIA]

Dave Felmer Simple response to you about Fergie's being the 'greatest manager ever': he never, ever managed outside Britain. Never left his comfort zone i.e. the style of football that he grew up with, and was most comfortable with. Never tested himself in an environment where he couldn't speak the language, either. Never, ever dominated Europe - two European Cups in 27 years? Pitiful, considering he helped M.U. to qualify how many times? (Sir) Bob - three in nine years. Doesn't matter what the format, he WON it three times. That's the only thing that counts.

A legend paid tribute to another legend!

[@SEBKAL]

👏👏👏👏👏 very true indeed

[@ag9652]

"a couple of these trophies will be up for grabs next season" *Liverpool win three trophies in the following season*

[@paulmcdonough1093]

I am EVERTON fan and a scouser but i am first and foremost a footy fan that`s why i am watching top manager paisley

[@bobbydigital3423]

Clough at his best, saying about Bill being like a father figure. Outspoken and controversial but a true football man.

[@redmustangredmustang]

People do not understand how good he was. He was the one that took Liverpool to new heights. Especially winning in Europe. Took the foundation that Bill Shankly made built a mansion making Liverpool the team of the mid 70's and 80's. His best signings were getting Graham Souness, Alan Hansen, and Kenny Daglish in 1978.

[@lewistaylor3580]

I’m a pure united fan but you will never get 2 managers like paisley and sir Alex they were both in a different league

[@Evemeister12]

I get bored of the greatest manager debates. Too many try to pick out flaws and make literal comparisons. What should a manager be judged on? Trophies? Longevity? Tactical innovations? Personality? Their legacy? The players/managers they influence? There are different managers who can be the greatest, interchangeable based on the criteria we choose to use. Just appreciate this mans achievements on it's own merits

[@lfclegendunluckyyylucas7275]

As a Liverpool fan I like Brian Clough he was a funny man and was the Jose Mourinho in the 70s and 90s as manager doing his mind games against players and other manager's it's a shame he wasn't offer the Liverpool job because I think he would be a great manager for us at least we got King Kenny instead.

[@taliamason7986]

What truth. You do realise it has been proven that David Duckenfield (the Cheif of Police at that game) and the whole South Yorkshire Police incompetence were responsible for that disaster. Do some bloody research first before making such ignorant statements.

[@shehzadaghazi1863]

@@taliamason7986 impressive👏👏

[@alexanderroberts730]

@Lukecombsrandytravis I hope to think that Clough would've been believing the official story at the time and would've held his hands up and admitted he was wrong after we cleared our name from the lies the papers and police told

[@qualityman1965]

I was, a, child in the early 70s rooting for liverpool. This brings back memories. Still love liverpool and all of Anfield legends. Every single one if them.

[@MarkRobertCuthbert]

Bill, Bob & Brian. Great, great Managers.

[@simplythebest286]

OMG I love this , a fucking legend ( brian) presenting another fucking legend ( bob)!!! and kids nowadays are fighting over guardiola and mourinho and shit , pffffff!!!!!

[@hardipduggal4787]

Brian Clough! What a legend ahaha!

[@geoffbray6996]

Cant we all just agree That Sir Alex & Paisley were both great managers at great clubs with great teams & Yes I am a True Manc!

[@aranyaism]

and shanks and busby

[@chrisfallon9678]

Absolute great with Brian Clough wandering around Anfield

[@2e1r3s2]

Ferguson didn't achieve in a quarter of a century what bob did in 9 years, win 3 European cups.

[@CMEAGAIN]

Fergie built teams

[@athelstan927]

paisley built teams..

[@taliamason7986]

Not really. Paisley inherited a ready made quality squad with Kevin Keegan from Bill Shankly. In saying that he did very much make make it a lot better and added many great additions including Dalglish, Souness and Ian Rush. I highly suggest you guys read what I am reading atm. Its called Quiet Genuis/ Bob Paisley Britain's Greatest Manager. Its a really good book.

[@danielaz4043]

dont compare.. this both manager are legends..

[@usmaanhussain6308]

Paisley also built his own team, out went keegan toshack n many more in came dalglish souness hansen n co and scums fans say he didn’t build teams hahaha

[@mossga]

These four videos are the greatest thing anybody has posted on youtube since it started... thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@OrbvsTomarvm]

Those were the days (I’ll never forget) what an incredible tean - Phil Neal, Phil Thompson, Alan Kennedy, Ray Kennedy, Ray Parker, Ray Parker jnr, Daniel Devito, Danny day Lewis, Mcvities, Bisto, Callers & Woolco, and Jon Jo Jim Jam Jack Jock Sebley in gaol. Unbeatable side, incredible. Right up there with the great man utd side of 1583 with Walter Raleigh and chopper Harris in nets. Thanks.

[@MrTomKarty]

Just for the sake of fairness Fergie built United back up from a low point in the clubs history, whereas Shankly had already laid solid foundations for Paisley to build upon. I'm a United fan but I rate Paisley and Fergie as equals. Both men are legends of the game. Also just as a side note, Rodgers is doing to Liverpool what Fergie did to United when he took over. He is bringing back that winning mentality, depth and quality to your squad. Looking forward to the L'pool vs United games already.

[@Harisankar-ce2vd]

I think Ron Atkinson did a good enough job winning cups..and making a solid enough team..on the pitch and financialy...for ferguson..to follow..

[@octaviussludberry9016]

Yes Brian, we won 3 of the 4 next season.

[@darrendouglas3704]

Legend who followed Mr Liverpool Proud Scot who became proud honourable Scouser Bill Shankly.Bob Paisley only man who would've instantly had dressing room full Respect Having been by Shanks side Then continued great journey as his own man ,continuing great total football vision both he and Shanks 100% believed in .Got it spot on having another Legendary manager also knighted by true footy fans that filled terraces up/down Country Brian Clough who had same vision & installed total football stamp on his Clubs .Bob Paisley simply Legend adored by the Kop Lost Shanks and accepted Paisley being,knowing Bob is one of their own YNWA Sadly now Shanks,Paisley ,Clough final whistles have all blown joined other true Legends from when it was The Beautiful Game Busby & Stein .

[@myaphextwin807]

I have never heard Clough bigging up anyone like he did with Paisley and Shankly

[@desmondmullen9477]

How the fook did Harry Kane get recognised for honours from the queen and this guy never got recognised. Disgrace.

[@RohitSharma-mi8gt]

😏 still the most successful manager ever !

[@LFC5Eurocups]

Of course football was only invented in 1992. And 2 Euro cups in 26 years Fergie at a club with Utds resources does NOT make you make you best of all time!

[@Hartmania21]

Toshak! What a wallop :)

[@adityapradana2147]

I hope Brendan Rodgers can be the next Bob Paisley ! Amen !

[@CMEAGAIN]

how did that work out lol!

[@taliamason7986]

He showed great character. Paisley on the other hand always questioned your character.

[@Shardxy]

Klopp is the new Bob.

[@frannydarko2698]

When football was football not like the fairy footballers today..

[@GavinWoods]

The FA Cup eluded Auld Big Head as well.

[@footscorn]

Is that Ronnie Moran?

[@leemiller3837]

People say Alex ferguson is the best no Bob was there in less time than faerie and won more European cups plus on ratio more league titles as well .

[@Myviewoftheworldful]

Why do they have a gibbering alcoholic presenting a tribute to the great Bob Paisley?

[@stowelld]

Where was his knighthood,you are right he was not a manc!

[@niazpetkar53]

Sorry, but Whisky Nose Fergie could not have surpassed Bob's 19 trophies in 9 seasons including 3 European Cups 🏆🏆🏆
