And lost his virginity to a goat. A common rite of passage in Pau Grande back in the day (for boys not goats). |

And was given a new liver but still went and abused it. One of my favourite players but one of my least favourite individuals.

He had an addiction ffs! Do you think a new liver would resolve all the underlying issues that made him drink or remove his physical need for the substance? He may not have been a very nice individual and he can't blame his addiction for every mistake he made, but comments like that are extremely ignorant and dangerous, you are better than that FW.

I hear ya PM and maybe it's harsh but I just never liked Best and how would the donor family feel about him abusing their loved one's gift? I've no interest in the film to be honest Edited by FREEWHEELER - 10 Mar 2017 at 6:29pm |

Anyhow, I thought I knew most of what there is to know about GB, but after seeing this film I realise I was very wrong. For those who are sufficiently open-minded to give it a fair hearing, it's not about George Best the Footballer, it's about George Best the Man. And as such, it's no "celebration" or PR job, certainly no hagiography. I went with someone who has no particular interest in Best. Neither is she from NI, or even a football fan. She thought it was excellent, as did I. And whether you liked the man more or less after it (both equally possible, I'd say), it is certainly thought-provoking. P.S. Both his ex-wives get the chance to say their piece, as well as many others who knew him, some famous, some not. Edited by Territorial - 10 Mar 2017 at 6:54pm |

One of the better docs on George Best. At 32mins check out the Windsor faithful screaming 'Ireland,Ireland...' would send shivers down the spine.

Fair play FW, I just hate people judging without understanding and, as we have had dealings in the past, I know you are better than that.
I look forward to watching the film and the documentary that Gashley posted above. His funeral weekend is something I will always remember. He jinxed us in the Cup final!
