The '''1983–84 season''' was '''[[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool Football Club]]''''s [[List of Liverpool F.C. seasons|92nd season]] in existence and their 22nd consecutive season in the [[Football League First Division|First Division]]. It was Liverpool's first season under the management of [[Joe Fagan]], who was promoted from the coaching staff after the retirement of [[Bob Paisley]], their manager of the last nine seasons who had won at least one major trophy in all but the first of his seasons as manager (including six league titles and three European Cups). Fagan's first season as manager ended with Liverpool becoming the first team in England to win three major trophies in the same season as they won the league title, European Cup and League Cup. They beat [[A.S. Roma|Roma]] on penalties to win the [[UEFA Champions League|European Cup]] for the fourth time (their sixth European trophy win overall), and defeated Merseyside rivals [[Everton F.C.|Everton]] in the League Cup final replay, and fought off a challenge from the likes of [[Southampton F.C.|Southampton]], [[Nottingham Forest F.C.|Nottingham Forest]], [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] and [[Queen's Park Rangers F.C.|Queen's Park Rangers]] to win their 15th league title, and their third consecutive title.
The 1983–84 season was the 92nd season in [[Liverpool F.C.]]'s existence, and their 21st consecutive year in the top-flight.
 
The undoubted star of the season was striker [[Ian Rush]], who scored 32 goals in the league and 47 in all competitions.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/latest-news/163576-rush-and-dalglish-the-best-ever|title=Rush and Dalglish?

==Events of the season==
 
'''August'''
[[Bob Paisley]], the most successful manager in English football, retired as Liverpool's manager at the end of the [[1982-831982–83 in English football|1982-831982–83 season]] after nine glorious years at the helm. His successor was 62-year-old "boot room" veteran [[Joe Fagan]].
 
The Fagan era began with the [[FA Charity Shield]] at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley Stadium]] on 20 August 1983. Liverpool, defending league champions, lost 2-02–0 in front of a 92,000 crowd, with [[Bryan Robson]] scoring both of the goals for [[FA Cup]] winners [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]]. The league campaign began unspectacularly seven days later with a 1-11–1 draw at newly promoted [[Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.|Wolverhampton Wanderers]].
 
'''September'''
Liverpool's bid for a fourth [[European Cup]] triumph began on 14 September with a 1-01–0 away win in the first round first leg over [[Denmark|Danish]] champions [[Odense]]. Qualification for the next stage was confirmed two weeks later when the Reds won 5-05–0 in the return leg at [[Anfield]].
 
They had a decent month in the league as well, finishing the month in fourth place behind [[West Ham United F.C.|West Ham United]], Manchester United and [[Southampton F.C.|Southampton]].<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=24&Month=Sep&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 24 Sep Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
'''October'''
October saw Liverpool's League Cup quest begin in the second round, where they eliminated Third Division [[Brentford F.C.|Brentford]] by a comfortable margin. Their European Cup campaign thrown into question with a goalless home draw with [[Atletico Bilbao]] of [[Spain]] in the second round first leg, leaving them to need at least a score draw in the return leg in order to progress to the quarter-finals. In the league, however, excellent wins over West Ham United and Luton Town helped them to attain second place as the month drew to a close, two points short of leaders Manchester United. As well as the surprise challenge from West Ham United, they also had a race for the title mounting from fellow [[London]] side [[Queen's Park Rangers F.C.|QPR]], who like West Ham had never won the title before, but were also playing their first top division season since promotion the previous campaign.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=29&Month=Oct&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 29 Oct Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
'''November'''
November was a rocky month for the Reds. They did manage to dispose of Atletico Bilbao in the European Cup, but were held to two draws by Fulham in the League Cup third round, finally winning the second replay. They did, however, climb to the top of the First Division, though the challenge from West Ham United and Manchester United remained intense, while a surprise challenge was springing from Tottenham Hostpur and unfashionable Luton Town - the latter who had been on the receiving end of a 6-06–0 demolition (and five goals by [[Ian Rush]]) by the Reds a month earlier.

'''December'''
10 December 1983 brought one of the most embarrassing defeats ever inflicted on Liverpool Football Club. They travelled to [[Highfield Road]] for a First Division clash with a [[Coventry City F.C.|Coventry City]] side who were emerging as surprise title challengers under young manager [[Bobby Gould]], and found themselves on the receiving end of a 4-04–0 defeat. However, they pulled together the following weekend to demolish [[Notts County F.C.|Notts County]] 5-05–0 at Anfield, and entered 1984 still in pole position and three points ahead of their nearest rivals Manchester United.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=31&Month=Dec&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 31 Dec Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
The League Cup quest continued with a replay win over [[Birmingham City F.C.|Birmingham City]] in the fourth round.
 
'''January'''
The first Liverpool game of 1984 was a 1-11–1 home draw with Manchester United in the league, billed by many as a championship decider - the outcome of which left the top two unchanged. The FA Cup quest began with a 4-04–0 home win over a [[Newcastle United F.C.|Newcastle United]] led by former Liverpool striker [[Kevin Keegan]], but ended later in the month with a shock 2-02–0 defeat at the hands of the previous season's losing finalists [[Brighton & Hove Albion]]. They also achieved a League Cup quarter-final replay win over [[Sheffield Wednesday F.C.|Sheffield Wednesday]], like Keegan's Newcastle on the way to promotion to the First Division. There was a real chance of a treble this season.
 
'''February'''
Liverpool maintained top place in the First Division throughout February.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=25&Month=Feb&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 25 Feb Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> In the League Cup semi-finals, they were held to a surprise 2-22–2 draw by Third Division minnows [[Walsall F.C.|Walsall]] in the first leg at Anfield before winning the return leg 2-02–0 at [[Fellows Park]], to secure a place in the League Cup final a month later against [[Merseyside]] rivals [[Everton F.C.|Everton]], who were on a run in the cup competitions despite dismal league form which had seen repeated calls from fans for manager [[Howard Kendall]] to be sacked.
 
'''March'''
March saw Liverpool seal their first trophy of the season when they won 1-01–0 in the final replay at [[Maine Road]] on 28 March 1984, three days after the first game saw them draw 0-00–0 with Everton at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley Stadium]]. The European adventure resumed with an excellent 5-1 aggregate win over [[Portugal|Portuguese]] champions [[S.L. Benfica|Benfica]]. They were still going strong in the league as well, and by the end of March only Manchester United (two points behind them) were looking able to catch them.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=31&Month=Mar&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 31 Mar Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
'''April'''
A succession of wins could have wrapped up Liverpool's 15th league title before the end of April, but a shock defeat to relegation threatened [[Stoke City F.C.|Stoke City]] and a 3-33–3 draw with [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester City]] meant that April ended with Liverpool still just two points ahead of Manchester United with four games remaining. And a late surge from QPR and Southampton suggested that the title might not end up at Anfield or [[Old Trafford]].<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=28&Month=Apr&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 28 Apr Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
Liverpool reached their fourth European Cup final by eliminatedeliminating [[FC Dinamo BucureştiBucurești|Dinamo Bucharest]] in the semi-finals.<ref>[[Liverpool vs. Dinamo Bucharest, 1984 European Cup Semi-Final>]]</ref>
 
'''May'''
May 1984 was one of the most glorious months ever experienced by Liverpool Football Club, but it began with a result that suggested the month could turn out to be one of the most disappointing. A goalless draw at relegation threatened [[Birmingham City F.C.|Birmingham City]] (who soon went down thanks to a late escape act by Stoke City) could have been enough for Liverpool to lose their lead to Manchester United on goal difference, but [[Ron Atkinson|Ron Atkinson's]] side also managed only a draw that weekend, and there was still a mathematical chance of either QPR or Southampton winning the title.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=05&Month=May&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 5 May Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
Two days after the scare in the midlands, another midland side - [[Coventry City F.C.|Coventry City]] - took on Liverpool, this time at Anfield. Any talk of a repeat of the December humiliation at Highfield Road was quickly silenced as the Reds crushed the Sky Blues 5-0 (with Ian Rush scoring four goals and pushing them to the edge of the relegation zone just five months after they had been pushing for the title) and opened up a five-point lead to a Manchester United side who were beaten by [[Nottingham Forest F.C.|Nottingham Forest]] on the same day. Southampton were now the only side other than Manchester United who could catch Liverpool, but the Reds only needed two points from their final two games to be sure of the title.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=07&Month=May&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 7 May Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
 
Liverpool drew their penultimate league game of the season with doomed [[Notts County F.C.|Notts County]] at [[Meadow Lane]], but Manchester United and Southampton were only able to draw their games as well - meaning that Liverpool had become only the third English club to win three successive league titles.<ref>[http://www.liverpool-mad.co.uk/footydb/loadgen.asp?Day=12&Month=May&ssnno=113&teamno=342 Snapshot Tables 1983-1984 12 May Liverpool - Liverpool FC - LFC Online<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref><ref>{{citewebcite web|url = http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/latest-news/163577-joe-was-brushing-up-the-dressing-room|title= 'Joe was brushing up the dressing room'|date=27 May 2014|work=Liverpoolfc.com |accessdateaccess-date=27 May 2014}}</ref>
 
The championship trophy was presented to the club on 15 May 1984 after the final league game of the season - a 1-11–1 draw with [[Norwich City F.C.|Norwich City]] at Anfield.
 
The European Cup final was played on 30 May 1984. Veteran defender [[Phil Neal]] put the Reds ahead against [[AS Roma]] at the [[Stadio Olimpico]] in [[Rome]], but the [[Italy|Italians]] later equalised to force a 1-11–1 draw which remained the score as full-time and then extra time loomed. The match went to a penalty shoot-out, which the Reds won 4-24–2, becoming the first English club to win three major trophies in the same season. It was their fourth European Cup triumph - a record only bettered by [[Real Madrid]] who won it six times between 1956 and 1966.
