Ian Callaghan is everything good that a man can be. No praise is too high for him. Words cannot do justice to the amount he has contributed to the game. Ian Callaghan will go down as one of the game's truly great players.

More quotes by Bill Shankly

Bill Shankly
Train the right way. Help each other. It's a form of socialism without the politics.
Bill Shankly
Chairman Mao has never seen a greater show of red strength.
Bill Shankly
I have not been short of invitations to other clubs and have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool.
Bill Shankly
Yes, Roger Hunt misses a few, but he gets in the right place to miss them.
Bill Shankly
I was the best manager in Britain because I was never devious or cheated anyone. I’d break my wife’s legs if I played against her, but I’d never cheat her.
Bill Shankly
I’ve been a slave to football. It follows you home, it follows you everywhere, and eats into your family life. But every working man misses out on some things because of his job.
Bill Shankly
It's a 90 minute game for sure. In fact I used to train for a 190 minute game so that when the whistle blew at the end of the match I could have played another 90 minutes.
Bill Shankly
Above all, I would like to be remembered as a man who was selfless, who strove and worried so that others could share the glory, and who built up a family of people who could hold their heads up high and say 'We're Liverpool'.
Bill Shankly
Aim for the sky and you'll reach the ceiling. Aim for the ceiling and you'll stay on the floor.

I have always had the deepest respect for Bill Nicholson as a person and as a manager. The Spurs boss is an honest Yorkshireman and you will go a long way before finding a straighter character than that. Bill has never wavered in his determination to give White Hart Lane fans the best.
Bill Shankly
The difference between Everton and the Queen Mary is that Everton carry more passengers!
Bill Shankly
The socialism I believe in is everybody working for the same goal and everybody having a share in the rewards. That’s how I see football, that’s how I see life.
Bill Shankly
The very word 'Anfield' means more to me than I can describe.
Bill Shankly
Although I'm a Scot, I'd be proud to be called a Scouser.
Bill Shankly
I have been received more warmly by Everton than I have by Liverpool. It is scandalous that I should have to write these things about the club that I helped build into what it is today.
Bill Shankly
I'm a people's man - only the people matter.
Bill Shankly
I want to build a team that's invincible, so that they have to send a team from bloody Mars to beat us.
Bill Shankly
Fire in your belly comes from pride and passion in wearing the red shirt. We don't need to motivate players because each of them is responsible for the performance of the team as a whole. The status of Liverpool's players keeps them motivated.
Bill Shankly
Laddie, that man scored 200 goals in 270 matches - an incredible record - and he has won cup after cup as a manager. When he talks, pin back your ears.
