Just thought i'd make a quick mention for Ferenc Puskas who died earlier today. The guy was one of the greatest footballers of all time and a member of the simply awesome Hungarian national side from the 1950s. And of course he was a member of THAT Real Madrid team which ruled the footballing world for so long.

In an era from which we remember so many great players, this guy is counted among the best and it's a sad loss.

Well, propably I'm far too young to know much about him Rolling Eyes , I've only heard about him in the movie 'Das Wunder von Bern' which is about the World Cup of 54, and this morning I've read the article about him in the newspaper. Anyway, I can only agree with you.
