50 Men Who Made LFC: Elisha Scott
The legend of Elisha Scott will live forever in Liverpool folklore.
Widely regarded as one of football’s greatest ever goalkeepers, his remarkable career with the Reds spanned a record-breaking 22 years and he remains one of the most famous figures to have represented the club.
Signed as a rookie 17-year-old, he established himself as Liverpool’s undisputed first choice between the sticks in the early 1920s and missed just three games as back-to-back First Division titles were secured.
Possessing the ‘eye of an eagle, swift movement of a panther and clutch of a vice’, his fame spread way beyond the confines of L4.
