Goodness -- I was in that crowd. 1980 I think?

My recollection was that George Best controlled the game without really leaving the centre circle. Obviously I was wrong!

 

That's almost exactly what my Uncle told me about that game.

I was there too, it was a huge crowd over 12k I think. Best was a class act the legs were gone, but he was able to ping balls all over the place from the middle of the park without difficulty.

Maybe he was getting subbed off in the pic? ;-)
