Summary[edit]

Description
English: Taken from The statue of Shankly, erected in 1997, outside the Kop at Anfield.

At the base of the statue the wording:

- Bill Shankly - he made people happy.
- Commissioned and donated by

Carlsberg to mark its association with Liverpool Football Club Sculptor Tom Murphy MCMXCVII

Shankly took charge of Liverpool when they were in the Second Division and rebuilt the team into a major force in English and European football. He led Liverpool to the Second Division Championship to gain promotion to the top-flight First Division in 1962, before going on to win three First Division Championships, two FA Cups, four Charity Shields and one UEFA Cup. Shankly announced his surprise retirement from football a few weeks after Liverpool had won the 1974 FA Cup Final, having managed the club for 15 years, and was succeeded by his long-time assistant Bob Paisley. He led the Liverpool team out for the last time at Wembley for the 1974 FA Charity Shield. He died seven years later, aged 68.
