"LFC had travelled to a European away fixture and at the time the club used to fly Aer Lingus. Shanks invited the pilot to sit on the bench with him and the subs etc.
The score was 0 - 0 with LFC needing a goal to win. So Shanks asked the person next to him who he should put on. 'Boersma' came the reply. So Phil Boersma stripped off, came on and scored the winner.
Shanks later congratulated Ruebin Bennett for suggesting the substitution. Bennett said it wasn't him. When Shanks asked who it was then, he was told it was the Aer Lingus pilot he had asked! "
