And if there was one figure who symptomised this promising yet ultimately unfulfilled passage of time it may well be a young hot-shot striker who arrived at Anfield in a blaze of publicity and made a dream start before misfortune and fate intervened to cut his career short and leave many including the man himself wondering what might have been.

I thought some of them would have gone on longer than they did," he later admitted."They had won the league, the FA Cup and the league again. I would think about the players we had and I could see that some of them were going a bit."It is easy for Liverpudlians who didn’t live through the Bill Shankly era at Anfield to assume it was a constant stream of trophies and glory.

Thank U Very Much" (No. 4), composed by McGear. (McGear has been reluctant to explain the reference in the song to "Aintree Iron".) [3] Many remember Evans' Bayern treble as his highlight at Liverpool but in fact it could be argued his goal in the second leg that finished 1-1 was the zenith of his career. He scored the goal as he described after receiving a "high dropping ball which I controlled on my thigh, pivoted and hit home on the volley from the edge of the penalty area." The goal was voted by viewers of ARD's Sportschau as "Tor des monats" or "Goal of the month" for November. That was nice of him to say," Evans says. "The fee really didn’t bother me as I have always been such a down-to-earth guy. Tony Hateley moved to Coventry in the same week which made space for me in the side. I said to Shankly when I signed that I would progress in the reserves but he bawled at me that he'd bought me for the first team."

After releasing a few more singles, McGear retired from the music business in the 1980s. Having proven himself artistically, he reverted to using his family name and has since carved out a career as a professional photographer and author. Gorman remained in the public eye through his regular appearances on such children's television programmes as Tiswas throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s. He continued to perform and record, and later moved into theatrical direction and production. Meanwhile, in 1978, McGough released his spoken-word solo album Summer With Monika (based upon his celebrated poetry collection of the same name). Since then he has arguably maintained the highest-profile and most sustained post-Scaffold career, still appearing regularly as a vocal performer on British radio and television, and continuing to be a highly regarded poet and author.

Liverpool absolutely destroyed Peter Shilton and his Foxes in front of the famous terrace and scored four goals in the opening 12 minutes with Evans grabbing one in the tenth minute. Evans had run towards the Kop prior to the game but after the one-sided contest he hobbled off after rolling over his ankle.

It is well-documented that one of Shankly’s most significant achievements during the early part of his managership was to persuade the notoriously-frugal Liverpool board to loosen the purse strings and allow him to invest in the team, the appointment of finance director Eric Sawyer to the Anfield board from the Littlewoods pool company associated with Merseyside businessman and philanthropist John Moores (who had a small LFC shareholding while being chairman of Everton) in the early months 1961 enabling him initially to pay the fees demanded to bring down Ron Yeats and Ian St John, the Scottish pair providing the heart of the spine of the manager’s first great side that got the Reds promoted and soon competing for the top prizes again. Shankly had two daughters. I think he would have liked also to have a son he could talk to. You wouldn’t though have a conversation with him like we’re having now. All he ever talked about was football. He talked and you listened. That’s why none of the players wanted to sit beside him on the train for the away games. He would go on and on..."Kent, David (2005). Australian Chart Book 1940–1969. Australian Chart Book Pty Ltd, Turramurra, N.S.W. ISBN 0-646-44439-5.
