Liverpool 1959–60

Liverpool began another season in the Second Division under Phil Taylor and finished it under Bill Shankly. Taylor resigned in November after failing to secure a return to the top flight. Shankly’s appointment was announced on 1 December 1959, although he did not arrive at Anfield until a fortnight later. His first match, at home to Cardiff City on 19 December, ended in a 4–0 defeat. A second loss at Charlton followed before a 2–0 win in the return fixture brought his first victory.
