RIP the greatest

On this day 2005 we lost the greatest footballer ever to kick a football ( sorry Ossie) RIP George Best

 

Fantastic player no doubt but I would put Maradonna above him and above Ronaldo and Messi. Shame the two who have left us suffered major health and mental issues ( some certainly self inflicted) RIP George.

 

What's happened to Muhammed Ali? Did I miss something?

 

Don't hear much from Tony Hart these days.

 

I was just thinking that, myself!

 

So where did it all go wrong George

 

Don’t think he played much football…

 

I think the greatest boxer was fellow Yorkshireman Richard Dunn

 

My brother did this advert with him.
E for B and Georgie Best became a chant on the terraces at old Trafford.

One of the greatest footballers, and not bad with the quotes either. My favourite "I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered."

 

He had a sports center named after him, you know!

 

In sunny Bradford no less. I think it’s going to be pulled down though.

 

What Bradford

 

Yes, everything except the curry houses ……



and Saltaire

 

George always saddened me when he was alive. Such a tremendous talent then the demon drink and fame claimed him. Watching him on a TV chat show when he was near the end - after his liver transplant which was successful as long as he stopped drinking - and he didn't - such a waste - and he was younger than me.

 

He was a builder, here, in our town.

 

Who George best
