	Ron Yeats - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Yeats, a stockily-built 6ft 2in central defender, was bought by manager Bill Shankly in 1961 from United and was immediately installed as captain as Liverpool gained promotion from the Second Division after eight seasons away from football's top flight.
		Yeats lived up to the reputation, and his nickname "The Colossus," his huge frame gave him, playing at the heart of Liverpool's defence for a decade and winning the club's first major honours in nearly 20 years.
		Yeats skippered Liverpool to another League title in 1966 and during this period also won two caps for Scotland, the first came on the 3rd October '64 in a 3-2 defeat to Wales at Ninian Park Cardiff.

	My Wall of Fame - Ron Yeats
		When Ron Yeats stepped off the train at Lime Street in July 1961 none of the waiting crowd of autograph hunters and well-wishers needed to ask which of the passengers was Liverpool's new centre-half.
		But men of Yeats' stature are difficult to hide and even though the fans at the station were thus far unfamiliar with this work, it did not take them long to pick him out on the platform.
		Yeats was a giant of a man. And in all senses, as Anfield was soon to discover.

	The Liverpool Way - RON YEATS
		Ron went straight into the first-team and would be the inspirational skipper that would captain the side to some of their greatest domestic moments to date and also their early adventures in European
		Only 43 goals were conceded in 42 matches and although some of their opponents were blown away by the potency of Liverpool's attack that season, Ron Yeats was a huge figure in defence and nobody was in any doubt that he would make the transition up to the First Division comfortably.
		Ron Yeats was the man who proudly walked up the Wembley steps after the extra-time victory over Leeds United to accept the famous trophy that had never been in the club's cabinet before.

	Forgotten Hero: #7 Ron Yeats (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Ron - inevitably nicknamed “rowdy” after Clint Eastwoods TV cowboy of that era - was made skipper within 5 months of his arrival and exercised monumental influence as the team galloped to promotion in his first season.
		As the 60’s wore on the Yeats game, though still essentially rugged, acquired a little more polish and it was a rare adversary who could unsettle him.
		By the end of the decade Ron had turned 32 and was beginning to suffer back trouble, but when he eventually yielded his place to Larry Lloyd he still had the impressive mouthpiece for colleagues in dealings with management, and he was a commendable influence on younger players.

		Thompson, exploiting the gaps that were being left at the back, found Hunt with a long ball and his square pass across the face of goal fell perfectly to St John who crashed his shot in off the underside of the bar to increase the advantage.

		Waiting in the wings was a man from Aberdeen who had already been converted by the almost missionary zeal of his new manager to the cause of his new club.
		As well as going out and buying in Yeats, St. John and for his subsequent teams, Thomson, Hughes, Hateley, Keegan, Clemence and Toshack, Shankly recognised the talent he already had at his disposal.
		Now, a new giant leads out a new breed and as Ron Yeats watches the Houllier revolution from close quarters, in his capacity as the club's chief scout, he can allow himself a wry smile at the memory of that famous press conference 40 years ago.
