I saw his team, i saw him, i was born in 65, his testimonial game, the football world turned out that night. I met n spoke to him once when i was 9 or 10 yr old .
Neither was I and I'm a United fan, this man was and remains one of the very greatest. I'm obsessed with him, Stein, Busby and Clough. Unreal characters.
So true mate. The passion he had for life and living life with great values. I miss him. He is a great inspiration to me. What a person to follow and aspire to. People like him make our life easier if you listen to them.
“I have drummed it into our players time and again that they are privileged to play for you and if they didnt believe me they believe me now” - Bill Shankly. These words made me teary eyes
If you're feeling down in the dump's, listen to Shankly, guaranteed to lift you up. they were a different breed in those days. "If my Country went to war I'd be the first to Volunteer". Class. Scotland and Shanks Forever.
@@garygalt4146 There is only one God and his name is Jesus Christ, not just some mere man who has no power to do anything. Jesus is the Truth, the only Way to eternal Life.
he made liverpool the team they are. laid the foundations. we would be still in div 1 if he never came along. he made liverpool 2nd most succesfulll team in england. 18 leagues 5 european cups. Wouldnt of been possible if shankly never came along and transformed us. he built an institution, dynasty. very few britih managers have done that. Pailey won the european cup with liverpool and more id still rank shankly higher. retired too early, i think he regreted it in the end.
When i listen to Shankly it makes the hairs on back of neck stand up, if ever there was anyone to look up to in life it's surly him, and one tough bastard he was too! My favorite quote of his was " football is a simple game complicated by fools" how right he was!
here we are in 2019 still listing to Shankly happy to see him and learn form his wisdom. he made Liverpool FC whats its now. fans who never saw him talk or manger Liverpool still love him till this day RIP
"John, you're immortal!" was what Shanks said to Jock Stein in the Lisbon dressing room after Celtic won the European Cup in 1967...he was the only other manager who was at that game...as has been said many times, Shanks is a total legend...and like Jock Stein, Bill Shankly is also immortal.
Shanks was a warrior poet. Along with Sir Matt and Jock, the best there ever was. From a United fan. Great to see that his spirit is alive and well in the defeat of the ESL. The vultures that want it won’t go away of course. But neither will we.
What a man......... Does anybody else see similarities in Klopp? When he talks you listen, the same sense of effortless respect. He also quotes similar principles and truths along with being a people person. Very rare to see a manager ego free these days, he deserves a trophy this year and I believe the players will deliver just that! YNWA
I was just thinking the same and read your comment. He reminds me of Klopp a lot. Talks a lot of sense and knows football inside out. What a true legend and inspiration!
The greatest manger any football club could ever wish to have. We had him as a manager at Carlisle United for a short time and we were honoured to have him. he inspired the team and our supporters. Thank you sir it was an honour to know you.
Reported at Mr Shankly ' s funeral the vicar said, "None of that born again stuff" Mr Shankly lived and gave his word as a gentleman! So too The Only Saviour Messiah Jesus Christ! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His One & Only Son, that whomsoever believes in Him. Shall not perish (forever in hell) but have eternal life.
What a Character..A trually modern day messiah..Totally Authentic and cared so much about the People of Liverpool..i'm a Spurs fan and they also a Tremendous Manager and man Leading the Club,Bill Nicholson..But Bill Shankley was sumthing else..And not frightened to stand up and be counted,willing to cut through all the B.S and Bollocks..A total"force of Nature"
daryls43 When Mourinho or Wenger are complaining about fixture pile ups and too many games. I bet Shanks is looking down and shouting "shut your whinging and get on with it"
The best managers are all like that, Daryl: Bill Shankly, Matt Busby, Bill Struth, Bob Paisley, Jock Stein and Alex Ferguson...great managers, doesn't matter what team you pull for - there's a yardstick for what a great manager is and they meet that billing. Period, full stop.
The present world needs a Bill Shankly. Not just for football but for a role model for society. Today we have so much greed, hypocrisy that cuts through society. This was a man who lived by his principles. I shudder to think about what he'd make of the modern game, the likes of Sam Allardyce using the England job to make a bit more on the side of a already terrific wage. The media like to make us believe the era of the Premier league is such a superior game to the old days, well they can kid themselves all they want. The footballing side is debatable but the modern game has lost it's soul
Totally agree they keep telling us the football is better the jury's out on that one I grew up watching football in the seventies with great players and passionate crowds
Do you know he spent £5.5 million pound on 25 players to build Liverpool to the force we became.If he would of stayed with Huddersfield they would of been we were and won all them cups.And we would of probably still been in the 2nd division because that's were we was when he took over.The man was a genius he came up with the red kit we still wear today.So happy 100th birthday shankly and thanks for the memories you were born to lead the mighty reds...^I^ RIP SHANKS ^I^...YNWA....
Thanks for posting this i was 9 years old when i saw LFC win the FA cup in 1965, it was my 1st kit at school and this man was a legend and not just to Football!
I quite agree if everybody had Bill Shankly's attitude the world would be a better place.Above all the greatest football manager ever,from an Arsenal fan
He took LFC from the 2nd division to champions of England, FA Cup glory for the first time, and came close to making LFC the first English team to win the European Cup within a handful of years. In other words turned LFC into the giant we are today. He laid a foundation so solid that even when the club goes through a bad patch a manager can come in and rebuild a team on that foundation that is capable of winning trophies at the highest level. He was truly special.
He is still around the place, his presence is still around the ground, even the youngest supporters of Liverpool even the baby's have dreamed about Shankly, and when they wake up they are kicking their legs everywhere wearing their red Kit. Long will last the memory of Bill Shankly.
One of my heroes, he passed away when I was only 5 but have read his books and watch footage of him, love the way he speaks about Liverpool fc, football in general and life a truly great man. From a Rangers fan
If ever anybody showed passion for the game, it was him... He had such a way with words, and gave everything he could to the club and the fans... I don't think anybody quite like Bill Shankly will grace football again, he was one of a kind, and we were lucky to have him.
Bill Shankly was a footballing fanatic. He loved football. Loved Liverpool. Loved his team and loved the fans. This is a man that did not mince his words as so many do today. If he thought you were not good enough for the team he'd tell you to your face. There were many so-called stars that tried out for Liverpool during Shanks era. He would often say " They have the skill but lack the heart to play for Liverpool" How true is that of these money seeking players today!
Liverpool Football Club, today raised the Title for the first time in years. Jurgen Klopp, with his personality, philosophy, work ethic, got us that title. Now Sir Bill Shankly, as he should have been knighted, is boasting of proudness, joy up there with the Big Guy. 💪😎
What Bill Shankly did for Liverpool makes him possibly, the greatest manager of all time. He was a supreme motivator and a superb man manager. I am convinced that the great Sir Alex Ferguson based his management style on Bill Shankly.
he is inspirational you would do anything for the guy, the bit were he said 'no football club was ever successful without hard work' just shows what a great guy he was long live the shankly spirit at liverpool YNWA.
This video was just brilliant. Thank you for compiling and sharing. This man was a model for society and the quotes were emotional, passionate and full of love for the club, it’s players and the people of Liverpool. You can see that all of those qualities run through the club right through until today. YNWA✌🏼
"If a man... who's playing in front of the public, is being well paid, and he doesn't dedicate himself to the job, I'd be hard on him. If I could I would put him into jail, out of the road of society. Because he's a menace." -William 'Bill' Shankly Right here we can see why we are against modern football. All they do is diving and sniffing money!
I was so proud to go to anfield with my dad to go into the KOP and see Bill Shankley he and my dad and grandfather told me about Liverpool FC it’s been installed in me that Liverpool are a very very big family my first cup final 1974 FACup v Newcastle at Wembley was the first of many finals over the years home and abroad everyone in fact I’ve loved them win or lose because i was with my family and my dad YNWA 96
I've no idea how I ended up watching this video, but I'm glad I did, I've heard his name but knew nothing of the man, I now understand why he's such a legend.
Britain's greatest managers have something mutual. Honesty, commitment and respect. They first of all respect themselves, therefore they can respect others. Thankfully most of them were Scots. Shankly, Stein & Ferguson. All were tough but fair. Don't think will ever see such personalities with that charisma that speak things the way they are.
Great video lads! What a man!what an ispiration for all of us! Bill Shankly he made the people happy! YNWA Best regards to all of you on behalf of "Hellenic branch"
To compare Shankly to a modern figure, it is only possible to compare him with people like Steve Job. These are men who were more than what they were hired for; men with visions that were greater than their jobs. You wanted a manager and a CEO, but you hired a prophet - that is the closest thing with which you could compare Shanks and Job. Football is about entertainment but Shankly saw beyond entertainment and made it into something close to a religious institution. Job was appointed as a CEO of a completely American commercial company and turned it into something more, something that actually can be trusted and respected. You can always find an excellent manager/CEO who could deliver results and churn out profits. But it's more difficult to replace people like Shanks or Job. When they are gone, an institution dies with them. A football club goes back to be just a football club, and a company just a company.
+thucydides Neo Good comments my friend, however the spirit of Shankly is still with the club. After he left we became more successful because the club had faith in the people around him like Paisley and Fagan. Mind you, I don't know if he could be a manager now with all the money and prima donna stars. He was all about old fashioned values like honesty, hard work, team spirit.
There a bit of Psychology Bill used that not many know about, When he brought down Big Ron Yates from Dundee..Matt Busby happened to be at the train station ...Bill said to Matt " Hey Matt, Come take a walk round my new center half"......Emphasizing his size....Clever Bugger was old Bill.
I 8sed to dislike Liverpool. My partners family are season ticket holders. I started going to the games, I realised how special Anfield is. The fans, the support, the songs, what it means to the city, the history. I absolutely love Liverpool now. I'm a fan. It's a very powerful thing.
2019 an i'm around for the last 40 years watching this club and i have not yet seen a better team since the 1986 ish barnes beardsly aldo ,but this new version of the team/club is coming very close,bill would'a been proud #YNWA
Shankly died in 81, I was born in 94. I never walked the earth at the same time as the man and yet he inspires me so much. What a legend.
I was born in 81
I was born in 81 feel the same he would still make it in today's game as he is a true leader that I would follow in all aspects of life
I saw his team, i saw him, i was born in 65, his testimonial game, the football world turned out that night.
I met n spoke to him once when i was 9 or 10 yr old .
Neither was I and I'm a United fan, this man was and remains one of the very greatest. I'm obsessed with him, Stein, Busby and Clough. Unreal characters.
The world would be a better place if there were more men like Bill Shankly, and that's from an Evertonian.
Here here 🙏🙏
Your right😭l. F. C. E. F. C.
Wonder what he’s make of the modern day prima donnas🤷🏻♂️
Amen
So true mate. The passion he had for life and living life with great values. I miss him. He is a great inspiration to me. What a person to follow and aspire to. People like him make our life easier if you listen to them.
"I wanted my floor to be cleaner than your's"..... Words to live by....
Wonderful rule in life to live by, do the best you can always, be true to yourself.
6 years later has it made a difference? Those words will stick in my mind.
"If everybody thinks along these lines, and does all the small jobs to the best of their ability, that's honesty."
Even if you don't support Liverpool you can't deny the genius of Shankly. The mans passion and humbleness was astounding. He is sorely missed.
“I have drummed it into our players time and again that they are privileged to play for you and if they didnt believe me they believe me now” - Bill Shankly.
These words made me teary eyes
One could argue that Klopp has drilled a similar mentality into the current lads as well.
I think Shankly would be immensely proud of Klopp
Jarvis Morris cant agree more mate. I am certain Shankly would be so proud looking at the club, the players and everyone associated with it.
I’ve seen the new academy...believe me Klopp is overseeing a legacy
Same here. Its a great feeling having respect for other people. So many people have missed out not listening to this guy.
That was powerful
The man who made the club I love, what we are. RIP Shanks. And thank you...SO much
If you're feeling down in the dump's, listen to Shankly, guaranteed to lift you up. they were a different breed in those days. "If my Country went to war I'd be the first to Volunteer". Class. Scotland and Shanks Forever.
I wouldn't fight for a piece of land run by people without morals. My knee is bent only to Jesus.

Listen to him talk about scrubbing the floor. I needed that message !
Probably the greatest football manager, ever.
He's my great grandad so I have few other options haha...
he made liverpool the team they are. laid the foundations. we would be still in div 1 if he never came along. he made liverpool 2nd most succesfulll team in england. 18 leagues 5 european cups. Wouldnt of been possible if shankly never came along and transformed us. he built an institution, dynasty. very few britih managers have done that. Pailey won the european cup with liverpool and more id still rank shankly higher. retired too early, i think he regreted it in the end.
hahah ignore that post, pissed i was. :/ no idea why i was watching chankly vidoes at 6.30am :/
Paul Morris There is context to what you said . He inherited a team in division 2 . You are just a simpleton who goes off what has happened on paper .
Shaun Dooley You are right though .
When i listen to Shankly it makes the hairs on back of neck stand up, if ever there was anyone to look up to in life it's surly him, and one tough bastard he was too!
My favorite quote of his was " football is a simple game complicated by fools" how right he was!

He was a real one
@@Amala-dk5uv he was the tough one.

To compare Shankly to a modern figure, it is only possible to compare him with people like Steve Job. These are men who were more than what they were hired for; men with visions that were greater than their jobs. You wanted a manager and a CEO, but you hired a prophet - that is the closest thing with which you could compare Shanks and Job. Football is about entertainment but Shankly saw beyond entertainment and made it into something close to a religious institution. Job was appointed as a CEO of a completely American commercial company and turned it into something more, something that actually can be trusted and respected.
You can always find an excellent manager/CEO who could deliver results and churn out profits. But it's more difficult to replace people like Shanks or Job. When they are gone, an institution dies with them. A football club goes back to be just a football club, and a company just a company.

Any nation would bow to this man
We’re scouse and we only bow to humble geniuses .
The best managers have confidence in themselves, there is no "hopefully" it's "we will be successful". Brian Clough was another one.
I love Bill Shankly , YNWA
