Remembering Joe Fagan

Fagan – a Scouser by birth – dedicated nearly three decades of his life to the Reds, offering invaluable coaching expertise and compassion.

His journey with LFC began in 1958 as manager of the reserves before he rose through the club to become first-team boss.

Serving as a vital assistant to Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley, Fagan inherited the top job in 1983 and continued the tradition of delivering success to Anfield.

His first season in charge ended with an unprecedented treble as his side won the League Cup, First Division and European Cup.
