The Official RIP Thread

[BEEFY]

Maradona dead. Probably deserving of his own thread...quite the impression he's left.

 

[Pangloss]

To my mind the greatest player of all time. Mexico 86, the world has not seen a better player. Incredible achievements at Napoli as well.

God has got his hand back

 

[The Fear]

Got to HAND it to him, Maradona was some player. One of the best to grace the hallowed turf, no doubt.

Wish the modern players were forced to watch his film and see how a magician at work, tried to stay on his feet all the time, despite woeful pitches, harder footballers and far more violent tackles.

 

[Pride of Lions]

I've never forgive him for that so called "Hand of God" goal...... bloody cheat and nowhere near as good as Pele.

Rest In Peace I suppose.

 

[Fulford]

No mourning from me for the cheating scumbag.

I think if I had ever met him in person I would have broke the fucking hand that cheated us out of the World Cup.

My thoughts exactly. Never liked him when he was alive not changing because he's died, Not in the same league as Pele who is a real football ambassador and the best player ever

How I will remember him is one of the biggest cheating scum that lived. He was a druggie and an alcoholic so killed himself really.

Oh God, his dealer might have to work for a living now.

Apparently Diego Maradona has checked out. Not seen it covered anywhere though.

Yes he did. He is just famous evidence of the damage alcohol and drugs can do. Addiction doesn't get put on many death certificate. However in so many cases like his he was indirectly killed by his addictions.

Alcohol and drugs can bring on heart attacks, cancers and all sorts. Liver is the last thing to go

 

[Pangloss]

I don't think an illegal goal in a football match makes him one of the biggest cheats ever, football really isn't that important.

Not being a fan of Star Wars except for the rides at Disney, I remember him as the green cross code man.

A bit of a shocker that one, never heard he was ill. No age at all.

RIP Papa
