BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Quotes about Bill Shankly
If you look at the players he has brought in and out, remarkable, staggering - and he has wasted a lot of money. Maybe he needs to start, like Brian Clough or Bill Shankly, down in the lower leagues and learn the business of management and all its aspects.

I am really proud because when you talk about statistics or records it means so much more when it is the big sides ... This is Bill Shankly and Liverpool, so it is a massive achievement.

We have been doing that for 30, 40 years, Liverpool have been doing that since the days of Bill Shankly, and it is something Liverpool will always continue to do.

I think where Avram has been very, very clever at Chelsea is that he has let the ship sail along. That is what Bob Paisley did at Liverpool after Bill Shankly. It's good management but it might not excite people ... The trouble is that people want Avram to bring in 10 players no one else has heard of, as Arsène Wenger is perceived to have done.
