  • Today's famous Grave visit, I pay tribute and visit the final resting place of legendary football player George Best.
    George Best (22 May 1946 - 25 November 2005) was a Northern Irish professional footballer who played as a winger, spending most of his club career at Manchester United. A skilful dribbler, he is considered one of the greatest players of all time

    ''They'll forget all the rubbish when I've gone, and they'll remember the football. If only one person thinks I'm the best player in the world, that's good enough for me''. Thanks George, from all of us who were lucky enough to have watched you play !

    I remember being taken to Highbury as a young boy to see George play. I didn't support either side but was told to witness the magic of George. He didn't disappoint: scoring by dancing around Webster to equalize in a 2-2 draw. Folks, if you get the chance to make memories for people then, please, do so because it is so worth it.

Even the Tottenham supporter's where applauding Gearge Best when attacking the Spur's defense with such talent in the control of the ball at his feet.. He was like lightning on and off the ball. Still remember him like yesterday. Great memories from my youngest days. Loved the most talented player of all time, as far as I am concerned.

    Wales v Northern Ireland, Home International match at Swansea around 1971, was waiting at the Train station after the match when I heard this screaming and George appeared running along the platform with his team bags to get the train to Paddington. What was funny was that there were two policemen trying to keep up with him (and failing) and behind them were about fifty screaming girls trying to catch him - I think he managed to get the train without mishap. Wouldn't happen now with the cosseted life Premier players ( who haven't the tenth of the talent George had) have but shows how times have changed. Thankyou George, one of the best players the world has seen....

    Though an Everton fan, I was lucky to see George at the peak of his career in the mid 1960s
    One game I recall was Everton v Man Utd in August 1966. Everton were a top side and FA Cup holders
    But in a mid week match at Goodison Park, George created two second half goals for United to win 2-1
    His display against full back Ray Wilson was world class. and he had been a full England international.
    In August 1967 the two sides met again, and to see George, Alex Young, Alan Ball, Denis Law, and Bobby Charlton on the same pitch was watching world class players that would grace any era. Everton won that game which is on YT.

George was the reason i started to watch and support United, what he could of done with the light modern ball on the bowling green pitches now, but like most of the geniuses in sport im afraid they have their flaws but lets just remember him for the player he was.

    He must have been decent for my Dad to say that about George. Sad the way he passed due to drink.
    I used to watch soccer saturday when George was a guest on there. He seemed like a shy nervous type of man who you wouldn't dream would be in the limelight.

    Thanks Paul, I really did enjoy watching this video and well done for taking the trip to N. Ireland 👍 I was lucky enough to see George Best play for my team Hibernian, his home debut in Edinburgh, December 79. He could not prevent my team being relegated at the end of that season, but he did show his genius on many occasions, for all fans who were lucky enough to see him play in Scotland from 1979 - 80. Stand out games, beating Rangers just before Christmas 79, scoring against Celtic, Jan 80. The ball and goalkeeper Peter Latchford into the net. The game finished 1 - 1, a Hibs penalty was also missed in that match, which came off the bar, not taken by George. He played in the Scottish Cup semi - final, April 80 against Celtic at Hampden Park, Glasgow. One flash of genius in the centre circle, even had the Celtic fan’s applauding, however he could not stop a Celtic win. For anyone interested please check the famous picture of George surrounded by empty glasses in an Edinburgh pub, looking bleary eyed. A one in a million shot by the photographer, the truth being the whole Hibs team were there and all drinking, not just George. The name of the pub, Jinglin Geordie, not named after Mr Best. A book written covers many a story, ‘When George Came to Edinburgh’. If anyone visits the pub, yes there is copy of the photograph and the story. From his time at Hibernian, the players from that era all say, he was no ‘big time Charlie’, very generous and a nice guy. Unfortunately he had his demons and he did. Personally, the most gifted footballer I’ve ever seen play and my favourite. George, R.I.P. with Mum and Dad 🙏

    Thanks for the video. George was my childhood hero I was also born in East Belfast and was and still am a Glentoran fan just like him. I visited the family grave back in 2021 it brought tears to my eyes and a man next to me from Manchester was crying! I was in the George Best Fanclub I think I still have my membership somewhere. I saw him play at Old Trafford a few times the first time was in October 1971 we came across on the ferry from Belfast. We beat newly promoted Sheffield United 2-0 George and Alan Gowling scored I was in the Stretford End. George was a Star the likes that no one will ever see again, what he could with the ball was breathtaking, pure Genius I'll never forget it or him. Two months later I left N.Ireland for a new life in England.

    That is a beautiful resting place and very well-kept, Clean and tidy but not manicured. Fit for a king like George.

    I met him when I lived in Northern Ireland in the late 60's. I was very young but I still have his autograph in my loft.

    Paul I’ve been off your channel for a few weeks as I didn’t know any of the people you featured. Today is different. I loved watching your feature on George Best. He was such a handsome man and a good footballer. Rest in peace rise in Glory George Best.

    Saw him play with Charlton and Law against Crystal Palace on more than one occasion. I remember the excitement in the crowd because he was playing and the expectation every time any of the three touched the ball. In the match at Selhurst Park in 1971 Best scored two and Law got a hat trick. Bobby Charlton kicked the ball off the line in the final minute giving a final score of Crystal Palace 3 Man Utd 5. A match never to be forgotten. Thanks for the video Paul, great summary.
