    What can you tell me about the ex great football player, who has just died?
    He was a 60's icon, wasn't he? What's more?

    He was a good footballer in the 60's and the seventies. He was involved in the Munich air disater when the airoplane that he was on crashed and some of the football players died that played for Manchester united. He retired from profesional football when he was 27. He was a heavy drinker all his life and has not long ago recieved a new liver, but he continued to drink and unfortunatly for him he died as a result of his drinking.

    Yup thats true it really hit home - my dad is a alchoholic (not drinking at the moment though) and i kinda figured if he didnt stop that could have been him!!!!

    And i think by him dying people might finally know how much a problem alcoholics have giving up! im sure he did wanna stop but its not easy really. I feel sorry for him and his family but hopefully him dying might wake people up!!
