Jon!!
Good riddance? To the best player this country, and maybe even the world, has ever seen?
Go find some videos of George Best playing football...he could do things with a ball that most players can only dream about. On top of that, he was a nice guy who made time for the fans, something sorely lacking in today's game.
He was an alcoholic, true, but I'm guessing you've never faced any kind of addiction on your life. If you had, you would know only too well it's not just a case of saying 'Oh, I won't do it anymore then'.
George Best gave more pleasure to more people than you or I could contemplate, and his passing does not deserve your disrespect.
