Having fallen behind Everton and Leeds in the league, Liverpool’s attention turned to the FA Cup. Wins over Coventry, Wrexham and Leicester saw them advance to the sixth round, where they would face Watford.
Presently barely avoiding relegation to the Third Division, Watford should have been a forgettable pushover as Liverpool advanced to the semi-finals. Instead, it would become one of the most significant matches of Bill Shankly’s tenure.

Excellent presentation thank you
Excellent research.
I can't help thinking that Shankly should've changed that Liverpool 60s side a lot earlier than he did before that Watford game
Great series, and I'm a lifelong Evertonian. Takes me back to school when half the class were red and half blue. Growing up in Liverpool in the '60s was priceless. Nice that you finished the episode with the pivotal 2-0 victory for Everton at Anfield.
Fantastic series, the research is amazing. Always have been intrigued by this era of transition and 'the Watford game'.
