George Best 1946-2005


Athletic fans, as well as fans from all over the world, will be saddened to hear of the passing away of George Best.

Without doubt, one of the best players in the world in his day, George will leave many fans of a certain age with great memories.

I'm honoured to say that I saw George play competitively, when Hibernian played Dundee on a Tuesday night in September, 1980. Although his best days were in the past, he still lit up a drab and dark night with some flashes of brilliance.
