RIP George. Thanks for being part of one of my great football memories. So sad to see the heroes of days gone by gradually passing on.

Never seems to be at the top of anyone`s 66 list , but he was a vital cog in the winning machine . R.I.P.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Lovely man, had the pleasure of meeting him twice, once in 1975 when his brother, Peter, (father of Ben) was playing for Ford Prison FC (my dear old Dad was senior probation officer at the time) and then in 2001 at the Albion's Centenary Dinner. (A tough gig for him that night, an after dinner sppech to a around 1,000 diners, 80% of whom had no interest in listening to him)

Another legend gone

Well full backs very rarely make the headlines, R.I.P. George.

One club man, just how rare is that today? Thank you George. R-i-P.

A real hero, w

Never seems to be at the top of anyone`s 66 list , but he was a vital cog in the winning machine . R.I.P.

always having played in defence (not that I ever played the game seriously, but just in kickabouts) I always appreciated defenders, and I was 13 in 1966. So Banks, Cohen, Wilson……….

And a gentleman. Just read George Best said he was the best full back he ever played against.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

One club man, just how rare is that today? Thank you George. R-i-P.

Indeed, an unfashionable player, playing in an unfashionable position, for an unfashionable club.

Meant in the nicest possible way of course.

Seriously though, RIP

Never knew that he was vice captain.

 

[BrightonCottager]

A great loss for the Fulham family - a one club man. There's already a statue of him at the Cottage (replaced the awful Michael Jackson one).
