    My favourite football quotes tend to involve Bill Shankly.

    How to play football

    1. A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing.

    2. Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.

    3. The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they don’t know the game.

    4. If you’ve got three Scots in your side, you’ve got a chance of winning something. If you’ve got any more, you’re in trouble.

    5. If a player is not interfering with play or seeking to gain an advantage, then he should be.

    6. At a football club, there’s a holy trinity: the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don’t come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques.

    There are lots of great quotes to choose from but this is and has always been my favourite :

    The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
    Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
    Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
    Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.

    From the translation by Edward Fitzgerald from the poem : The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam 1859

    I'm looking forward to reading your favourites.

    Quite lucky the English translation of a poem in Persian rhymed in English too.
