More quotes by Bob Paisley
The whole of my life, what they wanted was honesty. They were not concerned with cultured football, but with triers who gave one hundred percent.
Bob Paisley
The sort of lad I am looking for is a kid who will nutmeg Kevin Keegan in training, then step aside him in the corridor
Bob Paisley
Though I hope to have a few more seasons still in senior football, I am studying to be a physiotherapist and masseur when my playing days are over. We married men have to look to the future, you know.
Bob Paisley
I'll admit, right away, that I am disappointed that we did not have a major trophy to show for our efforts. We were in four and we had a good side, but when you count second place as failure, then standards are becoming fantastically high. We never celebrate second place here.
Bob Paisley
If you're in the penalty area and don't know what to do with the ball, put it in the net and we'll discuss the options later.
Bob Paisley
I'd always had an interest in physiotherapy and psychology.
Bob Paisley
Mind you, I've been here during the bad times too - one year we came second.
Bob Paisley

Bob Paisley
It's not about the long ball or the short ball, it's about the right ball.
Bob Paisley
I was aggressive but I played the game because I loved and enjoyed it. I might have hurt people and I got hurt myself a few times, but not with any malice. When I went on to the field I just wanted to play football. I didn't go out to kick anybody purposely. I just enjoyed playing and if that's aggression, then I'm guilty of that.
