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.

Edit. Just seen that The Bolton News beat me to that one. Not apologising though as I remember it.

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.TANGODANCER wrote: ↑Thu Dec 29, 2022 9:37 pmTANGODANCER wrote: ↑Thu Dec 29, 2022 9:30 pmA true football legend. Pele trained with Brazil on Bolton's Bromwich Street pitches in 1966.

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.
