Legends from Liverpool's glorious past paid tribute to legendary manager Bill Shankly during last night's 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic.
Players from the 1965 and 1974 FA Cup-winning sides were joined by members of Shankly's family as Anfield fell silent when two Scottish pipers played 'Amazing Grace' to which the Kop attempted to accompany with chants of the great man's name.
Representing the team of '65 were Roger Hunt, Ian Callaghan, Tommy Lawrence, Gerry Byrne, Tommy Smith, Chris Lawler, Ronnie Moran, Gordon Milne, Willie Stevenson and former captain Ron Yeats.
Kevin Keegan, Steve Heighway, Phil Thompson, Brian Hall and the widow of Reds skipper Emlyn Hughes headed up the team of '74.
Before kick-off, the Kop held up cards to form a mosaic proclaiming 'Shanks The Legend' as a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the Scot's arrival at Anfield as Liverpool manager.
