Seven people, all healthcare professionals, are charged with Maradona's 'homicide'. They include the surgeon who performed his brain surgery two weeks before his death. https://www.espn.com/soccer/argentina-arg/story/4390371/diego-maradona-case-seven-medical-professionals-charged-with-homicide

 

 

So, not exactly the hand of God on that surgeon, then

Odious twunt is being kind.

 

Why is that?   I just remember him as a fairly average defender who couldn't run very fast.

Sold the shirt for £7.1m today. Would make a lovely present for a fat kid.

So who gets that then? Is Hodge pocketing it or giving some/all to charity?

Seems only fair for Hodge to pocket the cash, I don't recall Maradona giving any money away when he sold Steve's shirt.

He'd have been lucky to get £7.10 for it anyway.

His form with Villa got him to Mexico 86, but his head was turned & as soon as he got back he was trying to engineer a move as he didn't want to endure another relegation battle.

 

As our numbers we short & squad relatively young, Turner had to pick him.  Generally showed disinterest & limited effort culminating in a game where he under-hit a back pass resulting in a goal, with no remorse at all.  

 

He eventually got his move to Spurs, promptly turned into the midfield engine we thought we bought, scored twice against us & we went down by Easter.

 

Not bitter.
