With the fizzle of this season finally being extinguished, especially as we had to come back down from such lofty heights of winning the PL in style not long back, got me to thinking about whether we as fans, will ever see such exciting times and such an attacking force again that we became under Jurgen… OR, in 50years time, will some of us still be so lucky to remember witnessing such a good time and still mention these past few/number of years with the fondness some of still have when we grew up watching the Shankly, Paisley, Dalglish and Rafa years… I would certainly hope that LFC do continue to build up events that can become folklore in the next decades… Guess we just have to be patient for signs during the coming season whether those events and memories, will begin with Sloball..or not.!
Roll on 2026/27 from a footballing perspective - lets see what happens eh

Two seem easy… the third not so much to some..

Rush is on the left hand side. The guy in the middle is Steve Ogrizovic. Is the guy on the right Michael Robinson?

Nope…

How it was back in the days of a young Shankly

The family said his exit from Burnley “was the catalyst for a decline in his mental health” and his wife, Debbie Beard, said: “Matt left Burnley not to go to another job, he left Burnley because he wasn’t happy there. Basically, they didn’t allow him to move on. I feel like they bullied him, to be honest.”

Beard’s stepson Scott Beard told the inquest review he had concerns about the timing of social media posts which were “quite damaging” to the manager.
