George Best is Dead. Alas!

Best - the boy wonder of 1960's football - is dead.

Best was the yeast of British football in the 1960's and early 1970's. Something (important) died with him when he died at Cromwell Hospital in London around lunchtime today. RIP.

For a little guy with a lot of skill who got hacked a lot, he didn't spend a lot of time diving!

The Fifth Beatle was PETE Best. George was known as "El Beatle"...

Truly a great. Eamon Dunphy et al are not fit to lace his drinks...
