some of you people seem to think that alcohol addiction is something that you can just click your fingers and it's gone. Well i got news for you - it aint that easy. George tried increadibly hard to overcome his demons as those closest to him will vouch. Unfortunately (like millions of others out there, be it drugs, alcohol, gambling etc) he failed and has paid the ultimate price.
and for the record it was actually the drugs he was on for his liver transplant that deliberately dissable your immune system to reduce the risk of the body rejecting the transplant. This is what made him susceptible to infections - and sadly this is exactly what he got. His family and agent all say he had not been drinking at all.
I feel very sorry for him and think comments to the effect of, he desserved to die and he didnt desserve the transplant are harsh and obviously from illinformed people with little knowledge of addiction.

You have a point, at the end of the day, he started it(his drinking), and he ended it (by dieing). He was obviously a great football player, but not much of a role model in my eyes, we could debate about alcerhol all day and drugs whatever, but we'll proberbly end up going in circle as usual
*Raises Glass*
"To George"

No he did not deserve to die but he did not deserve the transplant.
I know all about addiction having have worked in a drug rehab for a year and having a brother addicted to drugs (although clean now for 2 years) and plus given up smoking myself (which apprantly is the hardist of all addictions to give up).
Imo its as bad as fattys being lazy and saying "oh i inherted my condition" and taking pie's, McDonalds and lard for there "condition".
Fair enough not everyone has strong will power, but if your given a second chance in life you should beat your demons no matter what!
And was it not so long ago his wife left him for his contuining drinking?

perhaps just for today we maybe shouldnt debate the right and wrongs of george bests life. maybe today we should just reflect on the positive aspects of his life and the great footballer that he was.
the debate about him wasting his life away on drink and taking a liver from someone more deserving (whilst i agree with this) should be left for debate another day when his nearest and dearest have had there greiving time.
