That one is excellent. Nice touch Docherty coming in to congratulate Shanks on the league. You think a tosser like Moaninho would do something like that now?

I love this story which is also told in the clip about his last championship:

 

In 1973, when he and the team were showing off the League Championship trophy to the Kop, a young fan threw his scarf towards Shankly, only for a policeman to kick it away. The manager reproached the policeman, saying: "It's only a scarf to you, but it's the boy's life." He then picked up the scarf and draped it round his neck.
