I know what you mean Carra! Canaries Soccer will blow the rest of the ransom money on fast cars and loose women!
The other story about George Best is when he says that he was staying in a luxury hotel room. He had Miss World on the bed next to him with bundles and bundles of cash spread about the place. A knock on the door and the room service comes in and the first thing he says after seeing all this is "George!......Where did it all go wrong!" In the case of CS I'm sure his windfall will keep him in acne cream for a few more months!
My favourite George Best story - After a gig with Rodney Marsh on the 'after dinner speech' circuit, George and Rodney are in a restaurant when Besty orders a bottle of shampoo! It's gone in double quick time so Besty orders another bottle! The waiter brings the second bottle to the table and Besty says to him, "You know, I shouldn't be drinking this with what I've got!" The waiter says, "Why? What have you got?" Besty says, "About two quid!"
Nice one Dave! Besty was a legend and is sorely missed. I just wonder what his transfer value would be in today's money!
I won't tell them JWM, and I've renewed the padlocks with heavy duty mackem-proof ones. Best would undoubtedly be priceless in the same way that Messi is now.
I think it might have been Pele that said, "If I am supposed to be the best player in the world, then George Best is from a different planet".
