	Emlyn Hughes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emlyn Walter Hughes, OBE (August 28, 1947, Barrow-in-Furness - November 9, 2004, Sheffield) was an English footballer who captained the Liverpool F.C. side of the 1970s, having joined them from Blackpool in 1967.
		Emlyn was allowed to leave Liverpool in 1979 after 650 games, though he maintained his place in the England squad for another year while playing for Wolverhampton Wanderers, with whom he won the League Cup in 1980 - the one trophy he failed to win with Liverpool.
		Emlyn spent time with lower division clubs before retiring as a player, then briefly became manager of Rotherham United and later a director of Hull City.

		Emlyn Hughes, who died yesterday aged 57, was the captain of Liverpool as it became the dominant force of the 1970s in both English and European football.
		Hughes never had the same personal bond with Paisley as he had had with Shankly, but on the pitch he became the driving force for the side, his passion for the club and enjoyment of football evident in every game - a characteristic that made him a great favourite with the fans.
		Hughes was, in fact, an ardent monarchist, and in 1980, when he was due to collect his OBE at Buckingham Palace, feigned an excuse for not attending when he discovered that it was due to be presented to him not by the Queen herself but by Prince Philip.

	BBC SPORT \| Football \| Obituary: Emlyn Hughes
		Hughes was the body and spirit of the all-conquering Liverpool side of the mid to late 1970s, and his reputation grew as his and Liverpool's trophy cabinets bulged.
		Hughes' leadership qualities were still intact, and he led Wolves to a League Cup triumph in 1980, filling the gap in his trophy cabinet with the only domestic honour he had never captured at Liverpool.
		Hughes' wide grin and infectious laugh became one of the show's trademarks and he propelled the show into national notoriety when he put his arm round the shoulder of team member Princess Anne when she appeared on the show.

	MediaGuardian.co.uk \| Media \| Obituary: Emlyn Hughes
		Hughes was born in Barrow, the son of a Welsh international rugby league player who had toured Australia as a forward with the British Lions in 1946.
		Hughes was then an inside forward, but Blackpool turned him into a left-half, and as such he made his debut for them in the 1965-66 season.
		Hughes played 28 League games for the Seasiders that season, before Bill Shankly, the famously idiosyncratic manager of the Liverpool club, a tough Scotsman who had once played right-half for his country, brought him to Anfield for £65,000, then a record sum for a full-back, which at the time he was.

	The Emlyn Hughes interview, November 1999
		Hughes, Alun Evans and Tony Hateley were the only major purchases by the club from 1965 to 1969 as Shanks held on to the players who had brought the club back to the forefront of domestic glory in the mid sixties.
		Emlyn Hughes remains at a loss to understand the departure but as he explains, there was possibly more to the matter than has ever been publicly acknowledged.
		Hughes remained an integral part of the set up under Bob Paisley and lifted the European Cup on that never to be forgotten night in Rome in May 1977, a full ten years on from the comical car journey from Blackpool to Lytham St Anne's.

		Thankfully, Hughes junior took more of a liking to the round ball rather than the oval one and after starring for Barrow schoolboys began his career in the youth ranks of his hometown club Barrow.
		Shanks was in attendance when young Emlyn made his debut in the famous tangerine shirt and so impressed was he with the exciting potential of the raw youngster he immediately tabled a bid of £25,000 for his services.
		Sadly though, this was to ultimately prove one battle Emlyn Hughes couldn't win and a dark cloud was cast over Anfield when it was announced that one of its true legends had finally passed away.
