November 26, 200520 yr I didnt know George Best. Nor did I know this little lad But given that one had fame, fortune, shagged 4 Miss Worlds, had Pele call him "the best footballer I ever saw" and lived to 59 only to finally succumb to a self-inflicted problem while the other had a murderously short life curtailed by the indignity of ending up as vulture shit, I know who I would feel the most sorry for. The one thing that links us all on here is that 100 years from now we'll all be dead. It's what happens - it's part of the deal. You can't whinge about it but you can hope to have a decent innings with a decent chance to make the best of whatever good cards fate has dealt you. And Best did that. Maybe he died somewhat before his time...well I think the lad above would have been happy to live that long. So while I take no particular pleasure in his going, I certainly dont give a shit about it.
November 26, 200520 yr And I didn't know that policewoman who was shot, but I think the tragic circumstances she died under are more deserving of a minutes silence than george besr.
November 26, 200520 yr The choice to hold a minutes silence should be a decision made by individual clubs, not an edict passed down by the PremierLeague. I, for one, would not respect a minute's silence for Best, who was, indeed, a wife-beating alcoholic.

November 27, 200520 yr The Minutes silence is nothing to do with him being a wife beater or an alki, its to do with the fact that he was a footballing genious and one of a kind!. the fact that he was a wife beater or an alki is irelivant for the FA, they only concentrate on the football side of his life
November 27, 200520 yr This'll cheer you up Billy! A statement from the Premier League read: "In light of the sad news of George Best passing away referees have been requested to conduct a one minute???s silence prior to the kick off at all of this weekend???s Premier League matches. I can understand at his old clubs but at all the other ones as well!!! [-X thank fcuk we're away sunday or these cranks would have to tell the mass majority of bolton fans to observe it owd elsie bigglesthwaite died last week, are we having a minutes silence next home game for her? I still cant believe elsie bigglesthwaite is no longer with us. Tragic.
November 27, 200520 yr Dont know if anybodys already mentioned it on here but all this bollox about fans celebrating his life by having a minutes chanting clapping etc.. Did`nt the Jocks do it ages ago at Celtic (Chx supper) for some bloke who`d kiffed it up there?

November 28, 200520 yr I can't believe he took so long to die!!! Taking up that hospital bed that someone who really needed it could have had!!
November 28, 200520 yr doctor said just before he died.. got some good news and some bad news. bad news you only have 60 minutes to live. good news it is happy hour
November 28, 200520 yr :D/ :D/ :D/ let's hope Utd fans are a bit nicer when Sir Nat passes on. [-( I was talking about that last week, all week on Sky News its been Best this, Best that as if nothing else is going on in the world. Maybe a legend of his generation, but now all legends of their generation should get the same headlines. And Big Nat was certainly that!
November 28, 200520 yr George Best did not muder anyone/rape anyone/abuse kids/bomb people. Ok he may not get sympathy from people and that's fair enough and he probably knew that himself towards the end but he doesn't deserve people gloating about his death.

Ok he may not get sympathy from people and that's fair enough and he probably knew that himself towards the end but he doesn't deserve people gloating about his death. agreed end of the day, all we were asked was to be quiet for 1 minute can't say i'm a fan, but is it really so difficult
November 28, 200520 yr George Best did not muder anyone/rape anyone/abuse kids/bomb people. not that we know, the truth always comes out though.
