Georgie Best, superstar, wears frilly knickers & a playtex bra ! ...


I think if you are a football fan (well soccer as those American folks will insist on calling it) then if you were a real fan in the late sixties or early seventies then you were stood on the terraces with me, singing that dumb* song, every time he played .. Whatever happened later in his life the man was a true football genius, blessed with more talent (in my opinion) than even the great Pele ..

Obituary: George Best

* apparently George was caught 'on the job' with a cast member from 'Jesus Christ Superstar' {the musical} by some press photographers, & the then Manchester Utd manager (Wilf McGuinness I think) hushed it up, as George apparently had the 'wrong' underwear on at the time ! It didn't quite get as 'hushed' as he'd have liked, but I found it highly amusing as a kid ..
