The Best player never to play in the World Cup

No big sprawling tribute but just a short mention after hearing of the death of George Best today.

Being a long time Wolves fan (now clocking well over 30 years) I remember the former Manchester United and Northern Ireland player saying in his autobiography that through the magic of television he fell in love with Wolverhampton Wanderers. In the book, 'Blessed', he described how he became a Wolves fan by watching the floodlit games of the 50s on a neighbour's TV.

Just a little anecdote, that's all.

Thanks. I just wanted to say something that linked to my thoughts of him and not the generic ones the TV is spewing out. Isn't that all any of us can do ?
