I don't like repeating myself but Shankly and my dad were friends as well as me He really liked my dad cos he didn't,t pull his punches, I remember sitting at the back kitchen table listening to them in the next room. it was funny as well as being sensible and he shanks adored Karen and Pauline just as much as my dad did. I remember Shanks visiting our house after my dad died always wanting to ask if there was anything he could do, I am not ashamed to say I loved him we would go out and watch non-league football one night we went to watch Cammel Lerds I had 2 flat caps and loaned him one not many recognised him we paid to go in I think the fella thought we were both pensioners so we paid less than others. But he was such good company, you will never waste time talking to him
