Georgie Best?

Who's he?
Inspired by the Tony Yeboah goal on White Rose Boys blog. I looked up this.....maybe the best goal I've ever seen.
Eddie Gray demolishes the Burnley defence. Bliss isn't the word my friends :)

Eddie was unbelievable with the ball at his feet.
He is such a nice bloke to go with it.

A Prince among men, as so many of that team where. Top of their profession, but smashing blokes. Norman Hunter was my fave, I may have mentioned before lol.

I once met Eddie at the latter end of his playing career following an UEFA cup match in Valletta (about 1980). The Maltese match sponsers held a posh reception for the Leeds team and some of us fans managed to gate crash.
Eddie spent most of the night talking with us along with another player John Hawley who we'd signed from Hull. Eddie stayed sober but not John but we had a great night with our heroes.
I took a picture of me with these two but I've only got it as a slide so don't know how I can convert it to put on the computor.

I'm sure there'll be some way of doing it. You should do a search on google. If you have a few slides I'm sure you could take em somewhere and have them put onto a CD.
