george best was born in the north or ireland ? or myb it was the north bit of england ? or the north bit of scotland ? ,or just myb the north bit of wales ? :) and remember my fellow irish people :) george best wanted an all ireland football team :0 ,soo as far as im concerned :) george best was irish thru and thru :) he was a belfast boy :) not a uk boy :( just remember that little fact :) and gl all my fellow irish :)
@blueybrown1 An E-Type Jaguar I think - there is certainly footage of him driving an E-Type at his home in Manchester. 60's equivalent of Wayne Rooney in an Aston Martin DB9, except Georgie was the better player.
I'm from Dublin, but I couldn't care less about Georges religion or his nationality. He was without doubt the best footballer ever and a real Belfast character. He is sadly missed, by people all over both the islands of Ireland and Britian. Love ye George, Sleep well :)
greatest of all time thare was and are some great players but george was on a diferant planet pre genise and beond simply the best r.i.p george we love you.
LIsten here all of you, I am from Belfast and it's like this. He was the best player regardless of what nationality you try to tag him with. and as his dad Dicke said " He didn't care about religion or nationality, He just played the game"
@maxwellthedog I know what your sayin i live round the corner from his old house but the short of it is you dont get someone from the east wearin celtic gear.
@CraigFalconPunch its a hibs shirt hes wearing, utd had three irishmen on the 68 team,brennan,dunne and best,so who cares what part of the island they came from.!!!!
@CraigFalconPunch what if you come from the short strand? ive been to celtic matches with people from the strand.. btw, bestie played for cork celtic thats maybe where the jersey came from.
All of you arguing if he's Northern Irish/British or Irish are complete twats to be honest, go take your shitty little dispute to some other video and pay respect to the great George Best.
R.I.P Georgie Best - The greatest footballer who's ever walked on God's green earth.
R.I.P Georgie. Shame there are too many wankers who come on here just to talk shit rather than pay their respects to the greatest footballer to have ever lived.
if u feel that way why watch it some people have no common sence how do u think his family would feel i they see that, dont u think they have enough on ther e plate with george gone now dickie have u no simpathy george lived his life the way he wanted, having fun and his amily are proud of him
Aye, he is Northern Irish, but did he hold a "Northern Irish passport, or a "British" passport?
Northern Ireland is in the British Isles, it is ruled by the British Government and therefore it makes the people fro there "British" (as is the case with Falkland Islanders, Gibraltans, etc) both politically and culturally
who gives a shit if he was an alcoholic. fact is that he was from northern ireland and was the best ever british footballer. by the way, he wasnt a striker, he was a winger and all of you claiming that he is irish are just jealous that even when he was drunk he could still skin the shit out of yours defenders
can everyone fuck off with this alcohol or belfast troubles. When we get to the main point he was a footy player and the best one ever to play for man united. That is how we should remember him! R.I.P LEGEND
Are you fucking retarded? Over 350 games for Man United, European Footballer of the year, British player of the year, European Champion,English Champions, FIFA Hall Of Fame,the greatest British player of all time...... Need I go on?
Best scored and created goals. Ronaldo's assists record is bad for a winger/striker. Also George Best played well against good teams, Ronaldo dissappears.....Ronaldo's not in Bests' league
come on... im a united fan and i do think ronaldo is a great player but come on wise up ronaldo cant compare to best the best player of all time and have you actually seen his touch skill and ability to play in big game like ronaldo can be crouded out too easily
deee1979, Ronaldo is a zero when compared to Best. I saw George play in person, the speed,dribbling,inteligence,are out of this world. Ronaldo is an average player, I can name at least 50 players who are better than Ronaldo, but when it comes to Best, he is one of the best footballers ever, ranking up there with Pele, Maradonna,Garrincha and Puskas.
holy shit ... this is so hard to explain to spastic americians im form northern ireland ... northern ireland is made up of six counties and is its own country ... ireland is not northern ireland its nt jst north of ireland .. there is a north of northern ireland :L ... hard to explain r maybe ur jst a catholic n cnt face tht he ws a prod :L
Listen, I am from Downpatrick. I live in Dublin now, I go to school here. Yes, I am a Catholic. Yes, George Best was Protestant (his mother was Catholic, father was Protestant, he went to primary school). Does that matter? No. So why did you bring it up? Just because I was born in Northern Ireland does not mean I am not Irish.
There is no such thing as "Northern Irish", it's not a different race. It's called British, not "Northern Irish". You can't have "Northern Irish" blood but you can have Irish blood, which I have and so did George Best.
Northern Ireland is in Ireland you moron. Did you he say REPUBLIC OF IRELAND? He said "Irish", which denotes being from the island of IRELAND. You people are such tossers sometimes.
he was born in belfast n lived in belfast which is in n.ireland! 2 different countries retard. he was a foward. shows how much you know about him, let alone football. You puff. haha
Guess where Belfast is? On the island of IRELAND. If you are born on the island of IRELAND you are IRISH. I'm not talking politics, I am being literal - You may be a member of the British empire but you are still IRISH, just like the Welsh are WELSH because they are born in WALES. He was a winger, he only played striker for a few years (Bournemouth, America). His days at Man U and Fulham he was playing on the wing.
Different countries, not different blood. You can't be Northern Irish, it's called British, but there is no such thing as British blood. There is a difference between nationality and heritage. Duh.
ireland is an island as britain is but is split up into 2 different counties (northern ireland and republic of ireland/southern ireland) just like britain is made up of wales england and scotland
What a great player, most my family are Liverpool fans like myself but this guy has to be one of my favourite united players ever. full respect to him, what a fitting song to
Your a stupid wigger go listen to your jarule ya daft twat and think your black id dare ye to say what ya just said here in an East Belfast bar packed with NI fans im sure theyd love to have their way with ye ya stupid cunt,Who cares if he ended up being a drunk he was a brilliant footballer and a good man he just had to many problems in his life what fucking human doesn't he saw drink as a way out!Your a shame to call yourself an Ulsterman if you are one
nice way to put it i live in torquay, devon, england and george bests brother, ian is my dad so im rally disappointed by the some of the comments that have been left on here and i very much dought that ur like them
