had the pleasure of meeting him.  Great guy, would give you time to talk and be more than happy to sign your programme.

A liverpool Great, if ever there was one.  Be sadly missed.

YOU know who I've got in the back of this car, son? The future Liverpool and England captain.'
Bill Shankly's now infamous quip to a policeman in 1967, hours after signing 19-year-old Emlyn Hughes, could have been another example of his comic exaggeration.
Instead, it proved to be the legendary Scot's most accurate prophecy.

It’s doubtful if anyone who has worn the Liverbird upon their chest has played with more spirit and drive for the club than Emlyn. It was this spirit, drive and will to win that saw him fight so bravely for 16 months against the brain tumour ravaging him.

Appearances: 657

would love someone like emlyn in the tem now. just one player like him at centre half and we would be really challenging for the title.
its not the chilli sauce on kebabs that give you ring-sting, its the actual meat. had one without chilli, and still had ring-sting. the chilli's only there to mask the nonsense they stuff inside that bread.

I just watched ky News.  They showed the clip of Emyln Hughes lifting the european cup at Wembley in 1978. 

This sad day brings back memories of when football was the working mans game, footballers were loyal to their clubs, could relate to the fans and Liverpool ruled europe.

Every one of Benitez' squad must be reminded of the courage and dedication shown to Liverpool F.C. by Emyln Hughes.  How we could do with somebody like him in the current team.

Emyln Hughes R.I.P. Thanks for the memories.  You will never be forgotten.
