first appearance in All-Red

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 November 1964, Forty-one years ago

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 The first time Liverpool emerged in the all-red strip
Looking unfamiliar against Anderlecht at home in the European cup
Shankly had played down the Belgian threat
But after a 3-0 win, “You’ve just beaten one of the finest teams in Europe”

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 November 2005

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Anderlecht travelled to Anfield with no win in the last ten
No longer a force in Europe coming up against the champions
A new-look Liverpool it was the Rafa-lution
Now we were the finest in Europe and had changed positions

Notes
