On this day in 1961, Bill Shankly signed Ron Yeats from Dundee United for £30,000. He was the rock at the centre of our defence for 454 games across a decade, helping us to our first ever FA Cup, two League titles and a Second Division championship. He then moved into management with Tranmere Rovers, but returned to Anfield in 1986 as Chief Scout.
