January 13, 2018

He has always been a troubled man, but i didn't know that he was capable of this? He drank a lot, so, perhaps that's it...but...there are allegations, sueing, something public?

He was arrested for indecently assaulting a young girl:

The died later that year (2005).

He also once attacked and tried to kiss his son Calum while he was far-out drunk. Calum had longish blond hair at the time that looked similar to that of George’s girlfriend. The whole incident is described in Calum’s book; it’s a really sad read.

Best was given several kidneys due to his alcoholism. What a mess.

Glad he died.

He had a liver transplant toward the end of his life, not kidneys. The fact that he was given it was highly controversial here in the UK given he was a known inveterate alcoholic and the organ would obviously be totally wasted on him, which it was, as he began drinking again afterwards.


Great footballer, stupid piece of shit outside it. He drove drunk, beat up a lot of women from girlfriends to waitresses, stole from women's handbags to buy booze ... squandered a fortune and died a pathetic wizened, whining and self-pitying shell of a man who looked 79 at 59.

That is probably why he drank himself to death. Sorry, Callum.

That made me sick, got them on the NHS as well. This is just the cherry on top.

Just like Larry Hagman, got a new liver, then started drinking again.

im not picking a fight but "thank God it isn't becks" is peculiar utterance. kid was raped regardless of culprit and I am hopeful between then and now you realized how shitty that came off. but you arent deleted so perhaps now your triumphant tattle begs the question. what if it was becks. oh the horror?
