Just goes to show how difficult alcoholism is to beat, even after being given a second chance.
Delayed maybe, but avoided? That would mean he would have to be immortal.
Of course, to United fans, he is.
One of the top three players of all time yet let him be an example to future players of the dangers of fame and monet.
I have to agree with this, he will be a loss not just to us Man U fans but to football, as he was one of the greatest.
As for setting an example for the future players, he's done this, but I think there is more support these days for footballers in the terms of drinking! most clubs have stamped it out now! where as in best's days they thought it normal for players to get wasted after games!
