    Most fascinating city in modern day history is Belfast With The Troubles & sporting greats . Shame they never made part of the maze prison into some kind of museum. Oh and the people are so friendly & the Guinness not bad too .

    George Best is so overrated by the British he’s often referred as ‘the greatest of all time’ he couldn’t pass the ball, he wasn’t a great Goalscorer, and he was very selfish. Bobby Chartlon and Denis law used to get frustrated at Best for not passing the ball, he would often loose the ball to many times! I have seen many games of Best and he wasn’t at the level people said about him!
