86 World Cup was just a few months before i was old enough to get into football so i don't really share the hatred for him that many older people obviously do. If i'd been old enough though i'd no doubt be fuming.
I just see him as a fat mess who given his lifestyle has done well to still be alive at nearly 60.0 -
Gods grip is getting tighter on Diego.0

At the end of the day he is a footballing icon who has graced the game wrongly or rightly. Hope he sorts himself out and is back on track.0
-
Regardless of his health problems, I hope fifa now ban him from the tournament, his behaviour, gestures and language towards the Nigerian fans was disgraceful, how anyone with an official fifa pass can be allowed back after that display is beyond me.17

No one wants him dead. We want him to live but with lots of pain and suffering.shine166 said:Wishing a man dead over football ? Nah I'm ok cheers

"One of our own" - do you mean he's English?palarsehater said:
This anyone that has a transplant and continues to drink is a bit of a twat, although I fucking love gazza but that’s cos he’s one of our own.SuedeAdidas said:
Nope.PaddyP17 said:If this were Gazza the sentiments would all be "how sad, battling his demons, hope he pulls through".
But it's not, and he did the hand of God thing, so let's all laugh. Ha ha ha. Let's revel in a clearly ill man's problems. Hilarious.
Have I got that right?
I’ve little sympathy for either of them. Or George Best for that matter.

If people are gonna chuck Gazza's name about, comparing him to Maraconna, English football fans are gonna come down on Gazza's side every time in the argument. Why would that need explaining?
I hope DM gets an extra large girth pipe shoved down his throat to pump his stomach and makes a reasonable recovery.

I think it’s healthy to have ‘hate’ characters. Blandness is boringly mundane and Maradona is a fantastic baddie,a talented but evil genius.
He’s a joke figure these days and I’ve no real hate for him. Actually laughed when he was giving the finger, it’s fun seeing people non-conform and play up occasionally11 -
Thank God Boris ain't there.2

As a 15 year old “studying” , well maybe not , for my O-Levels/ CSE’s during the 1986 World Cup I blame him for my poor exam results , I wasn’t in a good place after his cheating antics .
Would VAR have helped us in 1986 ?

Well as far as I’m aware he has never played for Charlton. So yes because he is English, any chance we can not turn this into a row already had enough this morning because of some on morning tv saying the st George’s Cross should be banned.se9addick said:

You do have form for being a bit of a Wolly around any partiotic comments so if you could avoid that then that would be v handy.

Maradona's former agent Jon Smith talking on BBC Radio 5 live
Diego is a really high-energy guy and has always been that way. When I was with him in the '80s and '90s, he was high on life but his problem at the moment is he doesn't sleep so he takes these sleeping pills and if he interacts with other substances during the day, such as alcohol, it has an effect on him.
He quite enjoys being a parody of himself at times. I understand why people criticise him but in his heart he's a warm, caring guy.
I just hope he one day doesn't do something stupidly excessive and something silly happens. He's an embodiment of living life.
Pretty sure it wasn't just 'life'.1 -

He has gone through a fight that neither me or you could even begin to understand, so good on him, look at him now he is in a place where he can enjoy life and time with his loved ones.
If maradonna wants to keep getting coked up and antagonize oppo supporters then what do you expect people to think?
That sort of behaviour is muggy full stop.
But if you can manufacture a post to dig out the English I suppose you will you absolute hero.10 -
Maradona was quite simply a genius of a footballer and one of the best, some would say the best, there has ever been.
Like many supremely gifted and talented people he has many flaws in his character and I personally believe he is more to be pitied than scolded.3 - Sponsored links:

Erm...FIFA banning someone on the grounds of dodgy morality? Now if he'd been snorting the wrong brand of coke or giving the finger whilst drinking an unofficial, non-sponsored beer, they'd throw the book at him.DA9 said:Regardless of his health problems, I hope fifa now ban him from the tournament, his behaviour, gestures and language towards the Nigerian fans was disgraceful, how anyone with an official fifa pass can be allowed back after that display is beyond me.

Just said to one of the guys that I work with
Take one look at Maradona or Gazza and you'd laugh if you got told they were once World Class Footballers
Take someone like Gary Lineker or Pele though and its a completely different case1 -
Pele has got a floppy nana though......so it ain’t all golden.ForeverAddickted said:Just said to one of the guys that I work with

I'm actually very patriotic, although I would imagine that word means very different things to you and I but I would love to see some examples of my "form".
For the record, as a Rangers supporter, I love Gazza although he's clearly a very troubled man. He and Maradona suffer from similar demons that have manifested themselves in similar ways. They carry the weight of the working class, which in Argentina especially, must be very heavy. Not excuse for acting like a twat though.
