Football nut, born and raised in Manchester. Watched Man Utd from 9 years of age. My hero and the best player I have ever seen George Best, he was the BEST.

@HolywellTownFC You can at last test yourself against the best Welsh Football has to offer. I hope it's a really productive and enjoyable journey for you. Enjoy the ride Mate. It'll cost you and your teammates an arm & a fuc--ng leg in tinnies from the return trips from South Wales. 😉😅🤣😂

@CaernarfonTown What a great addition to the squad. Over the line at last. 😉👍

@lubimets @robertmdaws @NFFC @SpursOfficial Thanks Richard, I saw him play many times, the old left half as I recall. 😉

@robertmdaws @NFFC @SpursOfficial I should have got Phil Beal. I didn't recognise Ian-Storey Moore though. 👍

[Graham Connell @GrahamConnell4]

@StatusSymbol2 @robertmdaws @soccersource The biggest football shock ever. USA beating England, unheard of but it fuc--ng happened. 🤬

[Graham Connell @GrahamConnell4]

@ArdalNorthern @CPDLlanuwchllyn Outstanding strike rate Lad. Aim for 50 next season. 😉👍👏

[Graham Connell @GrahamConnell4]

@robertmdaws That was when the Cruyff turn really took off and other players tried it. Nobody was ever as good as the man himself though. One of the Football Greats, alongside George Best and Pele of that era. 😉👍

@ExtremeFootbal4 Baby face Wise, soon changed though to be an aggressive midfielder. He was never the most skilful of players but always snapping at opponents heels to try and win the ball back. 😉

@thebarryhorns 1966 as a 10 year old. I have watched the whole game back. With the pussy like game we have today, where players sometimes go down like they have been fuc--ng shot. I think maybe the 2 goalkeepers and Bobby Charlton would be the only players left on the field at 90 mins. 😉😅🤣😂

[A Funny Old Game @sid_lambert]

36 years ago today:

A Hungary vs Colombia friendly featured the most bizarre kick-off in football history.

We’ll excuse the slightly overhit pass, as it was a brave choice wearing those heels.

Puma Kings would have been a safer option tbh.

[Graham Connell @GrahamConnell4]

@sid_lambert @NYCFirm Lovely and that's just for a friendly. 😉👍
