George could never say no, says Best’s sister

A SISTER of the late soccer legend George Best yesterday described him as a person that could never say no.

But that proved to be his downfall and led to a long battle with alcoholism that eventually resulted in his untimely death two years ago aged 59, according to Barbara Best McNarry.

“Many thousands of people wanted a bit of him. They wanted to buy him a drink for a bit of his time, but he eventually succumbed to this dreaded disease,” she said.
