In more sadder news after no longer responding to his chemotherapy Pelé has now been moved to end-of-life palliative care
His daughter said it wasn't an emergency. Either they were playing it down or it must be unexpected.

My first footy heroes were Geoge Best and Pele. I'm sure folk older and younger than me would suggest others.
But I do remember those grainy pictures of the 1970 WC and beiing a bit baffled about the rampant way Brazil played, and Peie personified that style.

I don't remember Pelé, I just remember everybody was talking about him non-stop and I respect him enough to find the " é " in his name. ;)

That too, and they'd probably beat them at snakes and ladders the way their luck's going.

I've just seen footage of England v Brazil, 1970. Didn't Bobby Charlton ever have hair? :lol:

Argentina are definitely taking the 'attack is the best form of defence' approach here!

Snakes and ladders is pure luck, but ludo?

I haven't played it for about 40 years and I'm not sure how much skill there is in it, but as long as you've got two counters on the board and there's a decision to be made.....given there's nothing to trade tonight, I might just search for an online game. :D

I decided to play a game of ludo. Why the fuck do they make me a woman? Never asked for my gender!!

Edit: I was supposed to select my avatar. :lol:
