The Mighty Hog 526 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Is it just me, or are the media going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the top on this?? 64026[/snapback] Agree to some degree. Switched on 5 Live for the last half of Fighting Talk and they had the audio of his funeral, eulogies etc. Not had the TV on today so don't know what that coverage has been like.

Jimbo 175 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 I must admit I'm finding all this lamenting over George Best rather hard to swallow, I wouldn't mind if he had been held in this sainted regard before his death, prior to his passing he was just an alcoholic, womaniser, wastrell, who ballesd up his career when it all laid ahead of him. Now in death he's been put on a pedistal between Princess Diana and Mother Teresa, and I'm feeling somewhat cynical about it, I think the icing on the cake was seeing Mark Lawrensen in tears on football-focus. A sad time agreed, but its all gone way too far in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also please excuse my ignorance, me not being a chatboard regular like all you clever people, but could someone out there explain what the fuck WUM means.

I find the whole "public mourning" in this country a bit of "sheep following sheep". The comment was not meant as a smartarse remark at you, but obviously you've taken it the wrong way and seen the need for a personal attack. Fair play to you though.

Kid Dynamite 7171 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 on one hand, waste of a talent who retired way too young, shit on a lot of women, wasnt there to bring up his son, cheated on and hit the last woman to care for him, used and abused a new liver, ignored the pleas of those around him to stop drinking yet given the funeral of a member of royalty. on the other hand after all the shit in NI over the last 40 years its good for them to have a hero to revere. he is the most famous sportsman ever to come out of the country. in my eyes, he was good at football 30 years ago. he didnt cure cancer, slightly over the top. but hey, my opinion is no better than any one elses.

Brock Manson 0 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Don't think he deserves such a send off myself, footballing legend or not. The negative things he's done with his life far outweigh the positives if you ask me. R.I.P. yes, national hero not in the slightest I'm afraid.
