Faz tends to get quite nostalgic on us from time to time. Bob was a great we all know this there's no disputing it.

He sounds like an idiot in those stories.. Disgusted that you even posted something horrible like that these are what bob was a great man and you say that vile you and very sad. Woh hold your horses there now, bob paisley is an absolute, Legend in my view, but the way you told these stories did nt, make him sound very clever at all, in fact quiete the opposite. So stop with the drama queen routine. I only meant it as tongue in cheek sorry but it makes even more of a legend knocking david fairclough down a few pegs and thats the way bob was , with dougie dooins quotes etc etc , he kept everyone on there toes with his style ,and this style made liverpool the best 6 leagues , 3 european cups , one uefa cup and 3 league cups shows his style worked and it shows he was far from an idiot .

we're all aware of his achievements faz thanks. it doesnt take away from the fact that when you isolate those two stories and judge him on them, he comes across as an ass.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

I dont think those stories show bob to be an ass. He was the master of mind games like his contemories busby, shankly, clough. It was to unsettle players keeping them on their toes. I recall a story where bob and joe fagan would within earshot of a target player say some crushing comment that would bring their player to heel then later would be some compliment normally from good cop joe. Bob paisley was a nice man but success at that level was brutal. I recall John o hare saying just one (rare) comppliment from clough and they would run through a brick wall. It was the way things were done back then and sir bob was very good at it hence the team we had then.
