Georgie Best
Superstar
Walks like a woman
And he wears a bra
The bra's too big
He wears a wig
And that's why they call him
A sexy pig.

Georgie Best, Superstar
Iain Dale 4:23 PM

"So George Best will be laid to rest tomorrow. I remember running round my primary school paying shouting "Georgie Best, superstar, walks like a woman and he wears a bra". As you can see, Ashdon County Primary School did a good job educating me. At that time I was a Man U supporter, but it was the season they were relegated. The shame of supporting a Division 2 team was too much so I decided to support the team which my best friend supported, West Ham United. Good long term decision, eh? Haven't regretted it for a minute. No Siree."

I found this note on another website:

'Georgie Best! Superstar! Walks like a woman and he wears a bra!' So sang the Old Trafford faithful in Best's heyday and as his life slips away, we have to make sure we remember Best for being inarguably one of the greatest footballers in the history of the sport. Our thoughts are with you, Georgie."
