There are a lot of famous comedians from Liverpool, then obviously the Beatles, and the football club. That's what people in Liverpool are passionate about.

But after the half-time team-talk by the now player/manager Kenny Dalglish Liverpool looked a different side in the second half. Manager Bob Paisley paid a record fee for a teenager of £300000. It remained Chester's record sale until they went bankrupt in March 2010.

He is also the all-time leading goalscorer for Liverpool having scored a total of 346 goals in all competitions for them during his two spells there. Since retiring as a player in 2000 Rush has had a stint as manager of Chester City (2004–05) and has worked as a television football pundit.
