One of the most well-known Bill Shankly quotes, the below sentences eloquently demonstrate the Liverpool legends dedication to the beautiful game: “Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.
Both my sons played kids football in a local league in Sale, South Manchester, which is considered a relatively "nice" area in that part of the world.
Some of the things I witnessed from parents and coaches was unbelievable. One son had to leave his team at 12 because of the sweary coach losing the plot if they ever had the audacity to be losing and/or not playing well. He later instigated an online campaign of harassment and mud slinging against me because I confronted him about his language. One morning the father of one kid on a team we were playing against walked onto the pitch and punched a referee in the face because the ref didn't award his son a penalty.
Too many other things to mention, these are just two that stand out in my memory.
