What religion was Bill Shankly?

Answer 1

His religion was football.

"I think it's more than fanaticism, It's a religion to them, The thousands who come here, come to worship it's a sort of shrine, it isn't a football ground" - Bill Shankly.

His funeral (and his wife's) was at St.Mary's Church, West Derby, Liverpool. Which is Church of England, so if we can assume he was anything, he was protestant.
