This is Anfield

 "The most charasmatic manager in football history, a remarkable leader and visionary. An inspirational character. True icon and legend."

'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.'

To Ian St John - 'If you're not sure what to do with the ball, just pop it in the net and we'll discuss your options afterwards.'
 
'In my time at Anfield we always said we had the best two teams on Merseyside - Liverpool and Liverpool Reserves.'
 
About the 'This is Anfield' plaque - 'This is to remind our lads who they're playing for, and to remind the opposition who they're playing against.'
 
Shankly to the Brussels hotel clerk who queried his signing 'Anfield' as his address on the hotel register - 'But that's where I live.'

Radio Merseyside reporter to Shankly - 'Mr Shankly, why is it that your team's unbeaten run has suddenly ended?' Shanks replied: 'Why don't you go and jump in the lake?'
 
To reporters after a 3-0 defeat - 'They're nothing but rubbish. Three breakaways, that's all they got.'
 
To a translator, when being surrounded by gesticulating Italian journalists - 'Just tell them I completely disagree with everything they say!'
 
To the Anfield PA during a match - 'Son, can ye no' talk into that microphone when the players are in the penalty box. You're putting them off, you're doing more damage than the opposition.'
 
Shankly on boardroom meetings - '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.'
