That Maradona documentary that came out a couple of years back is great, if people haven't seen it.

RIP mad lad.

To accompnay it, the Gary Lineker one where he actually finally meets the man is a pretty good digestif, too. Lineker seems quite taken aback just how gracious and affable he is, no doubt after years of him and the rest of the England 86 squad thinking he was worse than Hitler.

Greatest of all time without a doubt. RIP.

Even his cheating was spectacular. Imagine the front it took to smack the ball in the net with your hand. At the World Cup. You've almost got to applaud the sheer gall of it

Only the greats can manage it.

Saw him one lunchtime in 2008 when i emerged from my dungeon office in Glasgow. Him and the Argentinian team were checking in to the Radisson. Saw him very briefly, but sadly there was no cocaines anywhere.

Of course not, el Diego would have hoovered it up on sight, the mad bastard.

Custard

In his later years I think he was more into food. And hookers

Nice hot dog and a nosh. Sounds alright

That was just symptomatic of the malaise around the French team at the time. Wished Ireland got through instead after the dismal tournament les bleus had afterwards

He was good when he held the Son of Man, saviour of the world in his immaculate womb, if im thinking of the right person

Dieg0bvious Th1ng Marad0nly Ju57 r3aL153d: Maradona was considered a good player, and in certain circles known for things other than cheating his way to doing a goal.

Another Dieg0bvious Th1ng: the famous goal was scored in a world cup semi-final, against Engerland, and it knocked us out of the competition, which was subsequently won by the holy-handed ones.

Custard

Wasn't it the quarter finals?

Wherever he is now, I hope he's next to Freddie Mercury, whilst awkwardly holding drumsticks

And a bonus thing what I've just remembered. During the *checks Wikipedia* 1998 world cup, the lads at my school were CONVINCED that Engerland HAD to win because of the science of palindromes:


  • 1966: Engerland
  • 1970: Brazil
  • 1974: West Germany
  • 1978: Argentina
  • 1982: Italy
  • 1986: Argentina
  • 1990: West Germany
  • 1994: Brazil
  • 1998: Engerland?!?!?!-Engerland!!!!!!!

RIP El Diego

I don't care how many goals Mess and Ronald score, Maradona was BETTER.

60 years well lived.

And why do you never see any other ex-players give this much of a shit?

Think on, Gary Linekers.
You can see the bloke holding him back is definitely thinking "Fucking hell, it's great fun being Diego's mate !"

The bloke is wearing a Maradona shirt, that's how much he loves the top lad

Easy GOAT. Who cares if he killed a load of people or whatever.

Hoovering up beak and fanny batter like no cunt's business and putting a foot ball in the back of that net. Amen.

I certainly did, in between massive bouts of laughter.

kalowski

Just remembered he shot at a load of journalists once, didn't he?

Up on the right Hand of God now.

Shame all the pubs in the Central Belt are closed. They would have been raking it in tonight.

His brother Beige Maradona still lives an uneventful life with no drug, debt or relationship issues. He's happy I think.
