Ronnie Moran: In his own words

Four years ago, LFCTV produced a documentary to mark Ronnie's 80th birthday entitled, 'Bugsy Moran - A Tribute to Liverpool's Sergeant Major'.

In preparation, presenter Peter McDowall sat down with the former Reds player, captain, coach and caretaker manager for an off-camera interview that would help inform the programme.

During a summer afternoon in Ronnie's bungalow in Crosby, he talked through his 49-year association with Liverpool FC, from making it as a player with a Second Division also-ran to helping build the club into a giant of the European game.

The affable Scouser also explains how he and his fellow coaches emphasised the importance of humility during a period of great success, and reveals all about the handwritten 'bibles' that provided the blueprint for a trophy-laden period.
