Redigerer Bill Shankly (avsnitt)

== Sitater ==
* On a European trip, behind the Iron Curtain, the Liverpool party were signing the hotel register. The desk clerk said to Shankly in broken English: ''Excuse me, Mr Shankly, but where it says "home address" you've written "Anfield"''. Shankly replied, ''That's right. That's where I live.''
* ''I am very pleased to and proud to have been chosen as manager of Liverpool FC, a club of such potential. It is my opinion that Liverpool have a crowd of followers which rank with the greatest in the game. They deserve success and I hope, in my own small way, I am able to do something towards to help them achieve it. I make no promises except that from the moment I take over I shall put everything into the job I so willingly undertake.'' (Uttalt ved tiltredelsen som Liverpools manager i 1959.)
* Before the game, in the dressing room, Bill talked to the lads. He said, ''You've read about Anderlecht having all these internationals and how good they are. They can't play. They're rubbish. I've seen them and I'm telling you. You'll murder them, so go out there and do it.'' The boys went out there and murdered them and won 3-0. And after the game, Bill burst into the dressing room and said ''Boys, you've just beaten the greatest team in Europe.''
* ''Fire in your belly comes from pride and passion in wearing the red shirt. We don't need to motivate players because each of them is responsible for the performance of the team as a whole. The status of Liverpool's players keeps them motivated.''
* ''Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that. (Noen tror fotball dreier seg om liv og død, jeg er veldig skuffet over den holdningen. Jeg kan forsikre dere om at fotball er mye, mye viktigere enn som så.)''
* ''If you are first you are first. If you are second you are nothing. (Hvis du er først, er du først. Hvis du er nummer to, er du ingenting.)'' Forøvrig ikke ulikt [[Knut Johannesen|Kupper'n]]s [[fyndord]]: ''sølv er nederlag''.
* ''I was only in the game for the love of football - and I wanted to bring back happiness to the people of Liverpool. (Jeg var bare med i spillet for min kjærlighet til fotball - og så ønsket jeg å gjeninnføre gleden hos folket i Liverpool.)''
* ''He's worse than the rain in Manchester. At least the rain in Manchester stops occasionally. (Han er verre enn regnet i Manchester. Regnet i Manchester stopper av og til.)''
** Shankly om trenerrivalen [[Brian Clough]].
* ''In my time at Anfield we always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside - Liverpool and Liverpool reserves. (I min tid på Anfield sa vi at de to beste lagene i [[Liverpool]] - Liverpool og Liverpools reservelag''.
* ''If Everton were playing at the bottom of the garden, I'd pull the curtains. (Om Everton spilte i haven min, ville jeg trukket ned gardinene.)''
* ''I always look in the Sunday paper to see where Everton are in the league - starting, of course, from the bottom up. (Jeg leser alltid ligatabellen i søndagsavisen for å se hvordan Everton ligger an - begynner, selvfølgelig, fra bunnen.)''
** Flere stikk til Everton som Shankly etter sigende hatet intenst.
** Skarpe uttalelser i retning [[Goodison Park]].
* ''Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple. (Fotball er et enkelt spill basert på å gi og motta pasninger, kontrollere ballen og gjøre seg selv tilgjengelig for å motta pasninger. Det er utrolig enkelt.)''
* ''At a football club, there's a holy trinity - the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don't come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques. (I en fotballklubb er det en hellig treenighet, – spillere, manageren og supporterne. Direktørene regnes ikke, de er der kun for å underskrive regningene.''
* ''Min tanke var å bygge Liverpool til å bli en bastion av uovervinnelighet. Napoleon hadde denne ideen; han ønsket å erobre hele den forbannede verden. Jeg ønsket at Liverpool skulle være uangripelig. Min idé var å bygge Liverpool opp og opp til alle til slutt måtte underkaste seg og gi opp''.
* ''Although I'm a Scot, I'd be proud to be called a Scouser. (Selv om jeg er skotsk, så er jeg stolt over å bli kalt en [[scouser]] (fra Liverpool)).''
* ''It was the most difficult thing in the world, when I went to tell the chairman. It was like walking to the electric chair. That's the way it felt. (Om å forlate lfc: Det var den verste beslutning i verden, da jeg gikk til styreformannen. Det var som å skulle gå til den elektriske stol. Slik følte jeg det.)''
