On the wall of Ronnie Moran’s home in Crosby hung a photograph of football’s most famous cabal. Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Reuben Bennett, the heart of the Liverpool ‘Boot Room’.
‘Every morning, I wake up and sit looking at that crowd,” Moran told The Independent four years ago. ‘I remind myself that I’m the only one still here.
‘All that knowledge has been lost. But I feel very fortunate to have been a part of it.’
Now Moran, too, has passed on and another link to Liverpool’s golden age has gone.
