Liverpool was founded in 1892 and admitted into the Football League the following year. The club has played at its home ground, Anfield, since its formation, although since 2002 there have been plans to move to a new stadium in Stanley Park. The most successful period in Liverpool's history was the 1970s and '80s, when Bill Shankly and Bob Paisley led the club to eleven league titles and seven European trophies.
The club's supporters have been involved in two major tragedies. The first was the Heysel Stadium disaster in 1985, in which charging Liverpool fans caused a wall to collapse, killing 39 Juventus supporters. In the 1989 Hillsborough disaster, 96 Liverpool supporters lost their lives in a crush against perimeter fencing.
Liverpool has long-standing rivalries with neighbours Everton and Manchester United. The team has played at home in an all-red strip since 1964, when manager Bill Shankly changed it from red shirts and white shorts in an effort to intimidate the opposition. The club's anthem is "You'll Never Walk Alone".
