R.I.P George, Very sad day.
RIP. All I can say.
RIP. Great player of which they are few and far between. Still think Maradona was the greatest though. A sad end to a sad life his genius will live on.
R.i.p George Best.................
This is a day of national sadness up here in Northern Ireland. Very unlikely we'll ever have one as good as him again.
I hope tomorrow during the Irish League games that everyone will respect a minute of silence and that all players of every team will have a black armtape on. That's the least they can do.
Also, I hope that everyone will not remember the alcohol problems etc, but remember the great player he was.
RIP and the best of strength to the relatives and close friends.

Rest in peace George
Considering he pretty much packed in his career at 26 he must have been one hell of a player to earn the praise he does today.
Pele
"George Best is the best player in the world"
Maradona (when asked: Who was his own footballing hero?)
"George Best. He's my idol."

RIP.
The greatest player ever to be produced on this green island.
May He Rest In Peace.
The Tribute is now on BBC1
RIP George Best.:( You gave Football a great name.
George, you will be remembered as a footballing genius forever. R.I.P.:(.
Great player and perfectly fitted his surname BEST as that is what he was
R.I.P
remarkable man and a true genius
a lesson for everyone
Ah Jaysus, another from my generation has left us.
Very down today.
That same horrible feeling when Rory Gallagher, Phil Lynott, Bobby Moore and John Lennon left this mortal coil.
May he rest in peace, no pain or sadness for him anymore.
Finding it harder and harder to relate to sport today, That'll probably pass but right now I'm having a little trip through the sixties and seventies and there are fine memories from then. George lit those footballing times up.
You older folks will know what I mean.
RIP George Best and thank you.:(
Great, great player. A true genius. Very sad day for football fans. Will always remember his goal against Sheffield United. The incredible balance. For me the best player I have ever seen. RIP George.
George,
You were the Best,
God bless you.
Big Debate on BBC 5 Live about a tribute to George, top of the list a charity match at Old Trafford between an All-Ireland Selection and Manchester United, with proceeds to Childrens Charities here and in the UK.
Could possibly be the ultimate tribute to a man who was the most talented sportsman Ireland has ever produced:ball:
George Best made the beautiful game look more simple and beautiful than any other. You'll be sorely missed.
Rest In Peace George.
