Phil Thompson was reknowned as a twohat with the Liverpool academy kids - really hard on them and if any of them gave him lip, his usual retort was "Show us your medals then".

One day Thompson was having a go at the kids and Robbie Fowler, who was a youngster himself, was giving it back.

Thompson started saying "Show us your medals then. You get your medals on the table and I'll get mine and we'll see who knows the most".

Fowler, who knew Thompson only had 9 toes said "Eff that, let's get our toes on the table instead".

The immortal Alf Ramsey to Rodney Marsh "if you don't work hard I'm going to pull you off at half time." Rodney Marsh reply "Christ, at Man City all we get is a cup of tea and an orange."

I don't think it gets any better than that in footballing folklore history. End of

Geoff Hurst was making a speech about his World cup final hattrick.

After all the players had got changed into their suits after their triumph, the players were all getting on a coach to go to a reception. Sir Alf Ramsey was stood by the door of the coach shaking each players hand as they got on.
It got to Geoff Hurst's handshake when he said to Sir Alf "see you at the next match boss" to which Sir Alf replied "if picked Geoffrey, if picked".

Inrerviewer : Gordon in which areas in particular do you think you were outplayed today ?

Gordon Strachan ( then manager of Southampton ) : That big Green one out there

It a fantastic rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Ericsson - Gordon Strachan on Wayne Rooney being called up.

My favourite Reevsey moment wasn't a quote but was when he immediately ran straight down the tunnel at Saltergate after getting a golden goal

Strachan : I have more things to worry about than Delgado , I have a Yoghurt at home , its expiry day is today , I have to be more concerned about that than Delgado
