But I have to say I'm amazed by the coverage his death has received. Since Princess Di the UK press seem to want to out do each other on the amount of coverage. GB's death was the first story on BBC World this morning (Friday). I am sure there is more important news. I have it on good authority that Sky and the BBC went overboard too. Perhaps they are trying to cover up the mess that the UK's domestic gas supply is in, especially given the onset of the cold spell. |

The addiction of alcohol took his career and his life away from him and that is tragic however would we feel the same about him if our wife /husband/partner also needed a liver transplant and non was forthcoming and we watched them die..........would we feel the same sympathy for George knowing he had a second chance of life which he wasted and our loved ones died not having had that chance? I dont pass judgment but its worth thinking about. :confused: |

R.I.P
My Son is 8 and was really sad to hear the sad news. He is a massive Man Utd fan. George Best should be remembered for his skills on the pitch and not what he did in his personal life. Noboby is perfect |
