Manager Bill Shankly achieved immortal status. The Kop idolised the remarkable Scot, he idolised the Kop and it was a love affair made in heaven. This image from April 1973 sums up that respect. Shanks thanks the Kop, almost in a prayer. Before or since, there has never been such a bond of mutual respect between a football boss and his supporters.

1973年, 红军在香克利的带领下获得双冠王: 联赛冠军和欧洲联盟杯冠军. 所以他感谢KOP们的支持, 看来香克利虽然远在欧洲,还是多少受到东方文化的影响, 你看他致谢的手势就知道, 哈哈.

谢谢您! 伟大的香克利.

谢谢你们! 伟大的KOP.
