Ronnie Moran

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Sad news indeed, RIP Ronnie, you did the club proud. 

[Aventus]

Despite how sad the situation is, I can't help but smile at some of these stories of his time at the club.

 

Incredible career, incredible man, deserves all the praise he is getting.

Seen this one Facebook made me laugh

LFC tv appears to be free to air and are showing some programmes about Ronnie.

RIP to a man who was part of an incredible dynasty that will never be replicated again .

[lifetime fan]

Should name the new main stand after him.

[SammyAftershave]

Naming the new training ground after him might be a more fitting tribute.

Great suggestion.

How sad, RIP Ronnie, they don't make them like him anymore.

 

Good to know he still was around melwood in recent times too.

Tremendously sad when I heard the news earlier today. What a truly wonderful man Ronnie was, the very embodiment and epitome of what every footballer and every man should aspire to be : honest, decent, loyal, courageous, wise, witty, modest and humble to the very end.

 

Legend. That word is bandied about so liberally these days and seemingly attached to every half decent no mark who's ever kicked a ball. Not so with Ronnie Moran, the man is truly deserving of that title.

 

I've often thought that one of the things these "modern" Liverpool sides have so sorely lacked has been the grit, tenacity, fire and the bollocks needed to rise above, especially when times are hard. Ronnie Moran had an abundance of all of these, and I would love to see Jamie Carragher return to Liverpool, purposely to assume the role which Ronnie made his own; Sergeant Major, Chief arse kicker, the bad cop to Jurgen's good.

 

Ronnie Moran, Bootroom Boy, Liverpool Legend.

 

Rest in Peace Sir.

Brilliant eulogy.

That's a cracking idea.

 

Would be absolutely fitting as you say.

Bugsy leading the side out as Captain.

Jamie Carragher tweeting before that as an 18 year old it was Ronnie that 1st identified that CB would be his best position.

Thanks, I enjoyed reading that.

 

There's a very good interview with Ronnie Moran in the book 'Red Machine' by Simon Hughes.

R.I.P. Ronnie, I'm sure you'll meet up with a few guys willing to discuss tactics.

"Me as a 30 year old, having won European cups, Captain of Liverpool, Captain of Scotland, played in 3 world cups.

 

I could not offer an opinion as a 30 year old.

 

Ronnie Moran would have stood over me and would be threatening to chin me, saying to me 'you know nothing about football, what entitles you to have an opinion about football'."

Fuck me, i'm 33 and I look about 10 years younger than Souness there.

you haven't got through the women and alcohol he did when he was in his prime.

The minutes applause before the Legends game for Ronnie Moran was very moving.
