Billy Liddell runs out of tunnel with the club mascot and also Roy Saunders and Doug Rudham in background during the1950s. Ask any Liverpool fan who the greatest player of all time was, and those with any sense of history will say, Billy Liddell. So loved and respected was he the club was known as ‘Liddellpool’ during the 1950s.
His extraordinary standing is made all the more powerful in that he won just the 1946-47 League title and an FA Cup runner’s up medal in 1950. A true gentleman who was never booked, he studied accountancy and rarely had time to train, and yet he was a goal scorer of legendary ability. He notched up 492 appearances and 215 goals and a further 26 wartime games and 18 goals.

One of the very earliest known images of the newly created Liverpool Football Club, with chairman John Houlding seated in the centre. Taken in in front of the bowls pavilion at the rear of the Sandon Hotel, the team were wearing blue and white quartered shirts. Exact date of the picture is unknown but thought to have been between June and August 1892.

The entire interview is worth the read. John Peel was also in Heysel and he briefly talked about how the tragedy unfolded. RIP John and the 39 Juventus fans who lost their lives on that dark day.
