Why Nelson Mandela is to blame for Liverpool's failure to win the league for 19 years
Liverpool FC's inability to win the title since 1990 has been blamed on a various people over the years, including David Moores; Rick Parry; Graeme Souness; Roy Evans, Gerard Houllier and, most recently, Tom Hicks and George Gillett. The real blame, however, for the club's abject failure to bring home the trophy Bill Shankly famously called ‘our bread and butter' lies solely at the feet of one man: former President of South Africa and anti-apartheid activist, Nelson Mandela.
