‘No brainer’ as Pool seal three-year Dalglish deal

KENNY DALGLISH has pledged to do his best to keep smiles on the faces of Liverpool fans for as long as he can after signing a three-year contract to become the club’s manager on a permanent basis.

Weeks of speculation were ended yesterday when it was announced the 60-year-old Scot had signed a deal to stay on, along with coach Steve Clarke.

As far as the man voted the club’s greatest player is concerned, a second spell as permanent boss is a duty and an obligation he has been waiting for almost since the moment he resigned just over 20 years ago.
