20 Trophies in 9 seasons ( Never To Be Beaten )and the 1st British Manager to win back to back European Cups 🏆🏆and the 1st to win 🏆🏆🏆EuropeanCups. A remarkable man in the purest of the words. He was a "Genius " Y.N.W.A 🔥
@@dquigley6306 in winning back to back Europe Cups yes, but NOT how many trophies won in a short period.. 🤣
@@Noddy21218 in those days money for players wasn't available like it is today and lucrative sponsorship deals, TV rights...
@@Noddy21218 1.5 million total. Well worth it.
Despite Bob's trophy hall I always thought Shankly's team was better having watched both it was a harder League to win in Shank's day because they came up against far better teams with great players Arsenal, Everton, Man U, Man City, Wolves, Chelsea, Derby Spurs & especially Leeds.
@niazpetkar53 I think you'll find he did win more trophies in the less than 9 years he was with Liverpool. Look at the 74 charity shield and see the significance to LFC. Ferguson would play tiddler winks to win a trophy. Bob only chased the big ones
The greatest British football manager of all time.
He was my idol growing up in the 70's. So humble, no mind games, never a nasty word about anyone or any club. A World of Bob Paisleys, would be an amazing world to live in.
You're quite right Mate😊
Wouldn’t it just….
Absolutely. The vito corleone of football managers. Intelligent, dignified, wise and brilliant
@@garyjones9910 do you not think Mourinho is better mannered though?
Don't you mean "the QUIET genius" nitwit!
Brilliant manager 1 of the very very best. Rip sir bob. From a Man U fan
What a phenomenal manager Bob Paisley was. You only realise, years later, that this quiet humble man was probably the greatest signing Liverpool ever made. So many fabulous memories watching Bob Paisley's Liverpool team as a kid. Thank you Bob, you will always be a Liverpool legend.
Not a Liverpool fan but I put him right up there with the greats of football managers.
Any manager who can see a player like Keegan leave and then sign a player like Dalglish deserves respect in any era or any level of football.
How he isnt regarded as the best manager of all time i'll never know.. even as an everton fan you have to admire what he did
Fair play 👍
Because football was invented in 1992 apparently 🥴
I'm 67 now and I've been a huge fan of Liverpool Football Club for about 62 years now. As much as I loved Bill Shankly, especially for helping us get back to where we belonged, it was Bob Paisley who I worshipped most. A brilliant football mind as shown in this amazing documentary. Bob and Emlyn Hughes are my 2 favourite men associated with this great club to this day. LFC forever.
Shanks was the heart, but Paisley was the brains behind Shankly reign, so when he resigned nothing changed as he was running the team.
The greatest manager to never be mentioned
A Great Modest and Humble Man 👏👊
One of County Durham's finest sons.
The greatest manager in history.⚽⚽⚽⚽
A very underrated manager, his trophy haul in such a short period of time is remarkable
Evertonian here, I have to start with stating I despise Liverpool FC. Having said that why wasn't Bob Paisley knighted? Ferguson was knighted before he landed back in Manchester after winning the CL. From memory Paisley won 3, and every other competition ( so it seemed as a young Evertonian ) year after year. He also served Liverpool quietly in the shadow of others, year after year, yet without him Liverpool would have remained the Mickey Mouse club my uncles told me they always were. Its shocking this great, humble DECENT man wasnt rewarded for his success and just as important his service.
He was not enough of a showman or a media personality. He was quiet, humble and down to earth, no one even remembers he was there
@waz3128 maybe armchair trophy hunting fans that change allegiance depending on where their latest club stands in the league table can't remember him Waz. When Ferguson was Knighted Paisley was still very much in the publics memory. He was very much in the public eye after his first European Cup, unlike Ferguson he was ignored, again after his second then his third. Knighthood should be given due to success not how much noise they make in the media.
As a m utd supporter paisley should have been knighted ,a great manager and a great man
well said. and respect
Oh. Surely we Scandinavians remember him. A lot of us. Aged 50-60 years. From back in the day. When we were boys. And football from England on our saturdays was the only footie on telly. And Liverpool THE club of the era.@@waz3128
A Utd fan of that time. I had and have the greatest of time and respect for Shanks and Bob Paisley. Honest, down to earth men. No b/s. Just Genius. Despite all those tortuous Monday school mornings. Genius is right.
One of the greatest and quiet managers of the history of world football....And should've stayed on in the manager's hotseat until 1990....ln my mind he is Sir Bob Paisley....RlP
Respect to Bob, from a Everton fan 👍
The Bob Paisley era is my favourite, I'm an Aussie but was lucky enough to see games at Anfield in 76 and 80 I'll never forget those experiences YNWA
I was so fortunate to follow Liverpool from 1978 (Liverpool 7 - 0 Tottenham) and I always say that 1978 team was my team. 1977, 1978 and 1979 for me, were the most magical years to be a Liverpool fan - in my opinion of course.
As a liverpool fan watching since 1969 that was a great liverpool team in the mid to late seventies Bob put a team together that defended league championship as well European cups. A great manager and a great team.. Ray Kennedy was in my opinion the best player..
Shankly was the beating heart of Liverpool & Paisley the brain. Bill needed Bob, but Bob didn't need Bill as we saw.
The biggest respect from a man utd fan.
We all know greatness when we see it.. No matter what club you support
Big respect to Bob from a Sunderland fan. rip
He was from 5 or 6 miles along the road from where I’m from.
Although Sunderland supporters we’re all extremely proud of what he achieved.
He was such an unassuming humble man despite probably having the best record of any English manager
As I heard him say on tv once “Speak quietly and carry a big stick”. Encapsulated his whole life.
Will ALWAYS BE SIR BOB PAISLEY TO ALL KOPITES.
Great manager , great man . Won more in 9 years than any other manager before or since . Legend YNWA
Greatest British Football Manager of all time.. and it's not even close. Amazing.
Absolutely 100percent
LFC fan since '76 ..... Bob Paisley best UK manager of all time in my opinion ..... SAF win a percentage of his trophy's with foreign players BP won all his trophies with home players so therefore in 7 seasons 20 trophies inc 3 euro cups and only one of a few euro greats to retain it ..... YNWA 😎👍 ......
I remember reading Kevin Keegan's first book was back in 1977-1978. He mentions how Paisley had his first team talk as manager after Shankley retired and stated that he never wanted the job but felt that out of loyalty to the club he had to agree. Keegan mentions how the players played their hearts out after that to make Paisley succesful.
I am a man united fan. But Bob paisley was a one of the greatest managers. Super manager. How come nobody still
Says about him. The guy is an enigma
Simply amazing
How was he not knighted? How is he not Sir Bob Paisley?
Because he didn't go up & down his garden with his Zimmer frame that's why & oh let's chuck in a Victoria Cross too whilst we're at it.
The queen wasn't told to. Shanks was a socialist but this bewilders
Because they would rather knight nonces
Maggie's era, though why Blair didn't I'm not sure. I could only admire him, only got to see the odd game live on TV here in New Zealand.
@@kiwihib Bob died before Blair became prime minister
Great manager. Doesn't get the recognition he deserves. Everybody talks about Shankly. He took over from Shankly and made Liverpool more successful. He won 6 League Championships, 3 European Cups, 1 UEFA Cup and 3 League Cups. He retired the most successful manager in English football history.
Still the greatest british manager ever😊😊
@@lowercentenary Yes. He and Ancelotti are the only managers to have won 3 European Cups.
@@fraser_mr2009Zidane ??
Beautiful piece of history ❤
The Man The Myth The Legend! King of The Kop, Hero of The People, Legend of ANFIELD Forever! YNWA Bob Paisley!
A giant in the game and life...
Ive said this for as long as ive Been alive when it comes to leadership no matter what context the leader appointed should always be someone who doesn't really want the position or ever chased it but will do it through a sense of duty.
Amazing video never seen before best manager in his time r.i.p Bob he was the best
Some of so called great managers of today might do well to take a page of humility from this thoroughly decent and humble human being
Cracking story very well put together
Brian Dawson Edinburgh Scotland 😀
I was lucky enough to be given a colour copy of a handwritten letter he had sent to someone as a reply. From what I can gather, the letter seems to be a reply about the circumstances of him leaving Bishop Auckland and joining LFC. It was given to me by a passenger on a bus, who had chatted with me weeks ago when I was sat parked up on a shopping service and we had been talking about the sport.
I might be a NUFC fan but as a child, I was following Liverpool from around 77, then began following Newcastle in 1980. I only lost interest when Dalglish left & really Liverpool went to the doldrums (where Manchester United are now and were 44yrs ago).
Paisley was such a modest guy and this I think was key to getting the best out of his staff. Who wouldn't want to push that bit more for someone who was happy with one trophy, nevermind 20....
I love one of his immortal quotes he gave us. You can hear that little Durham County twang in it....
"Mind, I've had the bad times too, ye knorr? One year we only got second...."
Thanks for the great memories sir bob had the pleasure to meet you once what a fantastic humble man love from Sunderland ynwa thanks again our bob ❤
His football was a delight for all us 70s kids to grow up with .
These memories give me goose bumps
Hate to say it,but as a Blue you’ve got to recognise what this man achieved in football!😳😳😳
He was also a war Hero. His record during WW2 is exemplary. A fantastic man indeed!
The first three managers bill shankly ,bob paisley and joe fagan those three managers were the most successful Liverpool managers that has ever been
Best quote and no disrespect to our German cousins .... In _77 before ECF v B MG telling his players I beat the Germans from the back of a tank in WW II now you go and heat them on the field .... LEGEND YNWA 😎👍.
Oh bob what a man shankly built liverpool paisely enhanced it! Weird how both managers from miners bk ground?
The greatest English manager ever the first division/PL has ever seen a serial winner in every sense of the word
Watched him play many times for Reds....so genuine and a gentleman
Legend
Phil Thompson is so passionate, bloody good on him👍
Just finished this Book.....a great read about Britains greatest football manager of all time
A true gentleman. Unfortunately his kind has pretty much gone forever…….
'We had a cup of tea and went to bed'😅 it either means that Sir Bob was was a quiet man who took everything in his stride... or he was randy bugger.
Legend respect ✊ 🫡
Bob Paisley was a magnificent football manager and a good man.
His achievements are phenomenal.
YNWA Bob.
20 trophies but Imagine if he had continued for another 5 yrs there would have been at least another 7/8/9 on top of that number A few weeks ago there was a discussion about Fergie and Pep they couldn't get close to Bob's record
Bill & Bob. for the people of the people.
20 trophies in 9 year damn woah
Should have had a knighthood while he was alive, Ferguson may have won more but he was there 3 times as long, and never won 3 European cups, and done at a time when only the champions went into the competition.
Greatest manager EVER bar no one!!!
The Quite Genius.
So he was only a QUITE genius,almost a genius??
Another great update Kev & it was good to hear Nick ( Mister Drone ) say on his video yesterday that all you guys are hoping to keep in touch with each other.
Did you notice that it says : "Quite Genius" in the end credits?
Quiet genius
There is a book out called Quiet Genius. It goes into more detail about Bob's life on and off the pitch. It's a great read.
صانع مجد ليفربول في السبعينات أحببت ليفربول في عهد بوب ييزلي
As a Everton supporter he was the most underrated manager in football and is not in held in the same esteem as other managers who haven't achieved what this man did a very sad loss
I SUPPORTED LIVERPOOL FROM JOE FAGANS 1 SEASON BEFORE KENNY i have no doubts 3 European cups makes him the greatest manager above Sir Alex just
In those days the fans had union Jack's until the country turned against us
But with Liverpudlian spirit we fought back and now it is onwards & Upwards.
Screw the country Peter 😉
Sir Alex was a great manager but Bob was the best.
Great video.
Do you think you could do tactical analysis and the roster of Liverpool in those days ?
might give that a go, if you were to pick a year under Bob what year would you go for
@@killie1505 76 to 78, unstoppable.
Bob Paisley, the most successful manager Ever in British Football History. Because he was such a "Quiet" Man didn't Chuck Tea at Players and foul mouth Abuse them and Referees -He never needed to Buy all the Best Players from Competitors - He was never given his Due Recognotion "Sir Bob Paisley". The Greatest British Football Manager there will ever be. RIP Bob, YNWA.
If you reverse the words 'The & Quite' in the opening titles it then makes perfect sense.
He once refused an autograph, saying he doesn't sign scraps of paper.. i was a ball boy at Chester & he was coming to see Ian Rush.
Used to go over the road & get Rushy his pasty.
But Paisley & Charlton weren't child friendly..
I know Charlton could be very unpleasant with kids. I knew one Charlton had in tears.
Liverpool loved the Union Jack flag in the 70's
Probably the best manager in History, but people forget football existed before the 90s
Thumbnail to clip is at Fulham 👍
'QUITE' or QUIET Genius ? BOTH maybe !
Beat bar none!
Pep Guardiola couldn’t of laced this guys boots
He could and soon he win watch him win another treble.
@@ifldiscovery8500 spoken like a true 🔔end
I remember dad helping me with my RE homework. He told me Paisley was God.
Hope Slot watches this
Fergie who???? Paisley is the most successful of all time. End of....
Absoulutlatey top manager if not the top take nothink away from shanks
👍
No need to disparage Fergie but there's no denying Bob paisley is an all time great.
Jock Stein,first to win the European cup,Shankley laid the foundations for all Liverpool's success,Matt Busby European cup success (Busby babes),Alex Ferguson European success Scotland and England, Kenny Dalgleish European success,all with stand's named after them up and down the english stadiums.but hey us Scott's know nothing about football.
@@jimwatson3382 Dont forget 1978 World Cup Drawing with Iran.😂😂😂😂
20 trophies in 9 years. Alex Ferguson, Pep, Klopp, Ancelotti ain't got nowt on Paisley!!!
And never will... Managers of today need money to build a team
At 5.23 Anfield is spelt wrongly as Anfeild!!!!!
Also @ 6:12 secs 'Relutantly' not Reluctantly. Several spelling mistakes in the video including on the 'Thumb nail' - perhaps just typos; great video regardless.
ok, 10:24, if ya got such a keeper in the other team, you must won.
h.m.
Messi is kenny like
5.23 Anfield! spelling mistake
If you were to list the top five managers of all time, who would make the list?
Matt Busby, Shankly, Clough, Revie, Paisley & Fergie modern day managers like Pep only build teams with money because of the wealth of owners he'd never take a struggling 2nd Division club to the top like some of those I've mentioned.
Top comment this totally agree@@mick6370
@@mick6370They spent money to relative to their competition. Your analysis is poor and dishonest.
@@ifldiscovery8500 You talk rubbish many of the players came through the ranks managers that actually went out looking for talent in the lower leagues as well you won't find Pep on a cold Tuesday night in Carlisle looking for talent
@@ifldiscovery8500 Rubbish a lot of them players were nurture from a young age you won't see Pep going to Carlisle on a cold Tuesday night like some of the managers I mentioned, Shanks took over Liverpool in Division 2 Revie took over Leeds struggling in Division 2 his biggest outlay was Allan Clarke that's all at £165,000 many came through the ranks.
So which is it, quite or quiet?
both
Did inherit a winning side tbf
.@Lakemeister
yes you are Correct....he did inherit a winning side .....but the side he inherited couldn't win in Europe .... he replaced most of Shanks signings over a couple of years with his own players.... yes the old players were still at the club.. but they struggled to get back into Bob's team ...... Bob rebuilt the team and dominated with it Home and abroad... Shanks Team never dominated like Bobs teams .... Bob took Liverpool to a whole new level where Shanks couldn't ......
Shanks got Liverpool back to winning ways and back into the top flight division...... but that was as far as he could go .
just to help.
Bill Shankly
in 15 years at Liverpool he won
3x first division titles.(top flight)
1x second division title
2x F.A Cups
3x Charity Shield
1X UEFA Cup
total 10 trophies in 15 years
Bob Paisley
in 9 years ate Liverpool he won
6x Division 1 titles.(top flight)
3x League Cups
6x Charity shields
3x European Cups (Champions League)
1x EUFA Cup
1x EUFA Super Cup
total 20 trophies in only 9 years ........ FYI....Fergie never came close to winning 20 trophies in any 9 year Period of his United Career .
Bob won 2.1 trophies per season
Fergie won 1.4 trophies per season
And that is why Bob is the Greatest British Football Manger of all time .....
He replaced a few players. He signed Hansen, Souness, Dalglish & more...
How come he never managed England ? We could've won a World Cup or Euro with him
I doubt he had the desire to mange any team other than Liverpool. For me that's part of what made him special.
@@petel2551He didn't want the hassle of the England job. He put his name in for the Rep of Ireland job in 1986. Jack Charlton got it but if the public knew his name was in the hat, Jack wouldn't have got the job.
Quiet spelled incorrectly on the thumbnail, pretty basic stuff…
What about fagan legend
Just read the biography. Seems a rather strange man with his inability or unwillingness to communicate anywhere clearly enough. A lot of credit must go to the Bootroom who picked up his pieces. Can't deny LFC's phenomenal success under him but it seems as if it was despite him and his odd behaviour.
Do shut up
what a career and there calling some managers legends today,give me a break.
Better than Shankley for me
Stand corrected .....9 seasons 😎👍 ......
Shame you couldn’t spell Anfield correctly.
Your uncle wouldn’t happen to be an evertonian by any chance
