BILL SHANKLY Football Interview 'Football - More Important Than Life & Death' 1976 1612pm 12.6.24 "it's more important than that" is the eternal mantra of fan who wanders from pillar to post watching any game they please. as opposed to taking the infantile and restricting tribal lines...

[@StevanBarry]

The greatest of the 3 Kings... Stein.... Busy and Shanks....

[@robertbrown7408]

Busby Shanks,Stein, and Ferguson. All Scots !!!

[@MollyiXXX]

Watching this feels like, I'm looking into a world that no longer exists. What a character! Mavis too is wonderful

[@TobyLerone-yn3rr]

Yep l completely agree, just an honest man.

[@slickrick320]

Great comment. It's great how he speaks of his mother, very respectful

[@jefffoster7105]

That's because you are watching a world that no longer exists my brother .YNWA

[@balazseszes8032]

I find it sad that this kind of mentality will never be within the game anymore.... Of course, times do change, but as a person who was born in the 90's, I find it extremely inspiring, chilling to listen to the enthusiasm, the passion and the will, not only Shankly, but a lot of players and managers then, had in them. This is when you do realise the HUGE difference! between todays football, and the one in Shanklys time... I wish, that football nowdays was just a game.... Now, it is unfortunately, mainly business :( Respect to this man. Great drive and attitude he had. From a Chelsea Fan

[@vishy]

Shankly is wonderful to listen to

[@johnquinn6442]

THE BEST OF ALL TIME.. SIMPLY THE GREATEST

[@ntulia.kapologwe9088]

The Legend....One of the best ever

[@cuibono6872]

"I want to die a healthy man" unfortunately he did, but definitely one of a kind, you do not get many Bill Shankly's to the pound, true legend and a great man.
Absolutely love his take on fighting at the football, men like to have a fight, what a man, love him.

[@incognitobrown7782]

Seems like a very good man. You can tell he is about the game and teammates, not about the money!

[@rolo5424]

4.20 "When I was a boy if you had an overcoat you were a snob". :D lol... love it and that was true too. Brilliant.

[@ianrichardson5512]

One of the greats of anytime. I wished he’d managed my football club as he speaks and thinks as a real leader, not one of these so called managers who jump from club to club delivering mediocrity. He would have loved to work with some of the young talent in this country and they would have benefited from each other. Shankly is a legend.

[@tommydowling9]

True that mate.. they don't make them like Shanks anymore.

[@jerryoshea3116]

As a long suffering Spurs fan( living abroad) all I can do is Marvel and be totally 100% enamored,impressed by watching Shankly! He had this mystique and Guru quality about& the city of Liverpool should never forget what did for their community and football team! ..They broke the Mould!

[@mrdeafa25]

In common with Brian Clough, he was not just a great manager he was a great man too.

[@davidhalkyard3609]

Liverpool are my clubs biggest rivals . All my clubs fans loved Bill Shankly . They also love Klopp he's todays version of Shankly .

[@bigbaz8314]

great questions from Kevin Keegan

[@brynteelingtheriverthieves3266]

What an incredible man

[@MREGGGOD1]

Solid gold !!

[@camilluschinbg4049]

2.30 his mother was a great person so as him.

[@ashunknown9728]

Bill shankly.should be Scotland pm haha what a legend

[@tommytong4154]

Great as the God for Liverpool FC

[@gaary1969]

Wise words from The Messiah

[@WithoutJustice]

"Yea. It's a game to some people. But to me, as I told a man, it's more important than life itself." -Bill Shankly 1:21

[@Red-Revolution708]

Don’t forget Bob Paisley he won the CL 3 times.

[@suffern63]

At 3:50 the typical comment of everyone,players were better when I was young.Of course,Shankly's opinion is more interesting than that of Gary Lineker,for example.

[@isabelhyndshaw786]

Of Who?

[@isabelhyndshaw786]

Not at all😁

[@justice-97]

My messiaha

[@sskradmelder]

INTERVIEW MASTER CLASS..ask your question,listen to the answer and respond.Mavis was the best.Anyone else find her strangely attractive?

[@y1521t21b5]

Yes indeed! *_YN🔴WA_*

[@UK_Stuboy]

I was truly born in the rong generation my mindset is exactly like this gerneration now im an outsider 😂😂

[@sicks6six]

Your team was loosing 2 0 and with 5 minutes to go they score their 3rd making it 3 2 that feeling can't be got anywhere but the bit of terracing your standing on. Or so it used to be back then. It's all changed now. Season tickets. Club shops full of stuff. Credit card football.

[@kingarthurusatenniscoach1415]

what an attractive beautiful woman Mavis is

[@stewartmair8645]

Is that a goal?

[@BabaG2016]

"Football more important than life and death" well that quote didn't age well. 😕

[@imamshamil5185]

Wrong. Football is not more important than life and death.

[@lunchbox7440]

NOT

[@isabelhyndshaw786]

More shankly

[@johncallan333]

His honesty is so refreshing in today's convoluted world.
