Liverpool FC On This Day revisits all the most magical and memorable moments from the club’s glorious past, mixing in a maelstrom of quirky anecdotes and legendary characters to produce an irresistibly dippable diary of Reds history – with an entry for every day of the year.
From the acrimonious Victorian foundation of the club to the 21st century’s heady European and FA Cup victories, the Anfield faithful have witnessed the First Division triumphs of the ’20s and ’40s turn into an avalanche of silverware in the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s – and they have also witnessed tragedies.
Pivotal days in history which saw the airing of ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’, the completion of multifarious Doubles and Trebles and the shock retirement of Bill Shankly all form a backdrop against which Liverpool greats – Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush and Billy Liddell, Steven Gerrard, Tommy Smith and Kenny Dalglish – loom larger than life.
Written by respected football historian and journalist David Clayton, author of more than 50 sports books, this book includes contemporary and historic images of club legends, key events and matches from the club’s colourful history.
