ON THIS DAY: SHANKS ARRIVES
Bill Shankly was announced as the new manager of Liverpool FC, on this day in 1959.
His first game in charge of the Reds was not to be until December 19, but this announcement was certainly a case of Christmas had come early for the club.
A new era was born and Liverpool's fortunes were about to take a turn for the better under the great man.
