Ron Yeats: A Legacy at Tranmere Rovers
Legendary former Liverpool captain and player manager at Tranmere Rovers, Ron Yeats, has died at the age of 86.
Ron spent three years with Tranmere as player-manager between 1971 and 1974, leading the club to a famous win over Arsenal at Highbury in the 1973 League Cup, one of the greatest results in the club’s history.
Tranmere Rovers Chairman Mark Palios said, “Ron was the guy who gave me my start and signed me as a professional. He was also instrumental in the career of so many more - Ronnie Moore, Bobby Tynan, Dickie Johnson, Steve Coppell, just to name a few.”
