The Liverpool secretary Peter Robinson was initially blasé in 1974 but, when he realised Shankly was serious this time, tried to make him change his mind. Shankly's granddaughter, Karen Gill, said to <i><a href="/wiki/The_Observer" title="The Observer">The Observer</a></i> in 2009: "I think that perhaps it was tiredness, that football had taken its toll on him".<sup id="cite_ref-G09_177-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-G09-177"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In her 2006 book about her grandfather, Karen Gill said Shankly never professed anything privately about retirement that he did not declare publicly.

Chairman, John Smith, said in his opening address:<sup id="cite_ref-LFC-RET_179-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-LFC-RET-179"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>178<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote><p>It is with great regret that I as chairman of Liverpool Football Club have to inform you that Mr Shankly has intimated that he wishes to retire from active participation in league football.

I would like to at this stage place on record the board's great appreciation of Mr Shankly's magnificent achievements over the period of his managership.</p></blockquote> <p>Shankly soon regretted his decision and tried to continue his involvement with the club, mainly by turning up for team training at Melwood. He said he still wanted the involvement as the club had become his life.<sup id="cite_ref-S143_180-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-S143-180"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>179<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He soon stopped going to Melwood because he felt there was some resentment and people were asking what he was doing there.<sup id="cite_ref-S144_181-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-S144-181"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>180<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> He still attended matches, but sat in the stand away from the directors and staff. He was especially annoyed that Liverpool did not invite him to attend away matches as the club's guest. When, finally, he was invited to travel with them to the away leg of the <a href="/wiki/1976_UEFA_Cup_Final" class="mw-redirect" title="1976 UEFA Cup Final">1976 UEFA Cup Final</a> in <a href="/wiki/Bruges" title="Bruges">Bruges</a>, he was accommodated in a separate hotel and said he found that insulting.<sup id="cite_ref-S144_181-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-S144-181"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>180<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Shankly contrasted Liverpool's attitude with what he encountered at other clubs, including Liverpool's great rivals Everton and Manchester United, where he was received warmly.

Shankly did not understand that, by turning up for training at Melwood, he was effectively undermining Bob Paisley's status as manager. On one visit to Melwood, a player opined to Shankly that Paisley had made a good start in the job. Shankly retorted: "I could have left a monkey in charge!"<sup id="cite_ref-183" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-183"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>182<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Shankly's visits even went as far as actually taking over the training. Tommy Smith recalled that Shankly as manager never ran training and would only speak to Paisley, Fagan and Bennett about what needed to be done. As a visitor at Melwood, he began to intervene and Paisley's initial pleasure on seeing him soon turned to polite embarrassment. Eventually, Paisley had to point out to Shankly that he did not work there any more, that it was now Paisley's team and that he had things which he wanted to do with the team.<sup id="cite_ref-G09_177-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-G09-177"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>It is believed that Shankly wanted a seat on the Liverpool board, as Matt Busby had been given by Manchester United after he retired as their manager in 1969.<sup id="cite_ref-G09_177-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-G09-177"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Again, what Shankly did not understand was that his relations with the board had often been acrimonious with several resignation threats and a statement made by Shankly that:<sup id="cite_ref-G09_177-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-G09-177"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote><p>At a football club, there's a holy trinity – the players, the manager and the supporters.

While Liverpool's treatment of Shankly may have seemed disrespectful, they were acting in the best interests of the club and its new manager by pursuing the same relentless winning ethic that Shankly himself had instilled.
