RIP George Cohen

[bigmart]

Another of the boys of 66 has sadly passed away aged 83.

 

[bring back the cowshed!]

I always feel sad when I hear news like this. As a boy, they were my heroes. Now only two are left and sadly one has dementia.

I don't remember very much Cohen playing, but he must have been very good. George Best said he was his most difficult opponent. Alf Ramsey (a right back himself) said he was the best ever.
