This one , 50-50 imo although not good to seeDidn’t realise that his career was cut short by a leg break courtesy of a ‘horrific’ tackle (allegedly) by George Best.
Also didn’t realise that fellow defender in that City team - Alan Oakes - was Pardoe’s cousin
Must be Matt. Looks 50:50 to me as well.This one , 50-50 imo although not good to see

Bests touch was poor taking the ball away from him but I don’t think there was intent, he was 10 stone soaking wet when he was playingMust be Matt. Looks 50:50 to me as well.
It was a Man City post that used the word ‘horrific’ - hence my use of the word allegedly![]()
I wouldn't begin to speculate on why he died but sad news indeed ,Morecambe defender Christian Mbulu has died, aged 23.
London-born Mbulu started his professional career at Millwall and also represented Braintree and Crewe, scoring once in 22 career games.
He moved to the Shrimps in January, having left Crewe, and made three appearances this season.
"He was only 23 and the news of his sudden and untimely passing has been a shock to us all," the Morecambe statement said.
"Christian came to the club in January and proved to be an extremely popular member of the squad.
"His loss will be painfully felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing him."
