R.I.P ex Fulham and England full back George Cohen, a memorable member of the 1966 World Cup squad. The late George Best said G.C was the best full back he ever played against. God rest his soul.

A true football legend. Pele trained with Brazil on Bolton's Bromwich Street pitches in 1966.
Edit. Just seen that The Bolton News beat me to that one. Not apologising though as I remember it.


Eternal rest grant unto them all Oh Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them, may they rest in peace. Amen.

I spend the summer in Bolton in 1966 and I remember it too, Tango. For me, Pele was always the very best I ever saw. Arguments could be made for Messi (never for Ronaldo)but for me Pele is number one. A sad loss.

Heard a story on the news that dictator led government relaxed building regulation about 5 or so years ago to stimulate growth in the economy, alongside criminal builders that's hardly helped the situation.
