Rhodes Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Devastating news folks, RIP: http://metro.co.uk/2014/01/05/football-legend-eusebio-dies-4249846/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Every body dies. However it brought to mind a chant from the 60's Ay yi yi yi Wolstenholme's better than Yashin Connell is better than Eusebio and Hendon are in for a thrashing. It was usually Hendon as while we hate Barnet we did not play them that often as when we [Enfield] left the Athenian league to the Isthmian Barnet went to the Southern and then to the Football League.
