There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Who was the other giant?

Just because I'm describing them as giants, it's because I admire their achievements. It doesn't mean I like them. Far from it, in fact I detest old red nose, but only a fool would be so biased to lack an acknowledgement of his impact on the game.

If I recall correctly, and memory (especially on my part) is a fickle thing, Liverpool were the top dominant team and were coming up towards their twentieth League championship. It was widely acknowledged at the time that the bootroom dynasty instigated by Shankly were amongst the most successful managerial team of all time. Manchester United were still a force, but nowhere near as successful as the Busby days when along came Ferguson. It was almost immediately obvious to 'those who know football' :wink: that a duel for the ultimate bragging rights was immenant between two contemporaneous, and mutually disparaging, Glaswegians. It was, even then, a battle of giants. Here endeth the history lesson.

See above. It's how I remember it. Don't you? I know you say you're a Bolton fan not a football fan, but cast your mind back to the race for the eighteenth/nineteenth league championship. Maybe it's just me then :conf:

Charming. There are some people it is a pleasure to debate stuff with, and there are others who are complete wankers and I think you are a paragon of onanism.

Because you're not actually arguing anything. You're just having a go. That's either because you disagree but won't debate, or because you're on the windup. That's why.

What's there to debate?

United were not a force in the English game, Liverpool were. They were not on their way to a 20th league title. Kenny hadn't built a team to dominate, he inherited a team and when it came to rebuilding, he quit......

I still don't get what Dalglish is supposed to be bringing of benefit. It clearly can't be anything managerial as, whether or not he was great in the 80s, more recent events have demonstrated he certainly ain't any more, and even if he was, it would be a bit 'Newcastle' to start f*cking around over a manager's head when he's doing well, and defo not 'canny'.

What else does he bring, other than someone for the fans to sing about. Which they did anyway. I'm not sure anyone who doubted FSG before now suddenly thinks they're great.

It's a non-story!

That it's going to lose its mind
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

I really wish I'd not started this. It's quite obvious that I alone share an admiration for Dalglish that is shared with no-one else but complete RAWK tossers. I apologise and can only say I have no idea how this aberation has managed to infest my febrile brain. I shall do my best to divest myself of these perverse and fetishistic thoughts. I shall go to sleep tonight repeating "I am talking through my arse, I am talking through my arse, I am talking..."

Just after chanting your mantra I think a bit of self flagellation wouldn't go amiss. :D
