spent two years in Fulham in the mid 70's, remember those matches and the friendly supporters and the Cornish pasties. but best memories were the genious of George and Rodney, never saw players since enjoy the fun of playing as much. Great memories,

Look at that 3rd Fulham goal brilliant one end to the other and Best, oh how I wish he played today, genius of a player.

Just as our coach arrived at Loftus Rd it came over the radio that the game was cancelled so the supporters club sec said lets go down to Craven Cottage to see Georgie, what a great day, different then we expected but still a good memory. Thousands of other reds also turned up, good on Fulham too I think they appreciated a few quid on the gate.

Still fascinated by George Best, he had it all, and more.

George Best's goal was an unexpected pleasure.

Happy days! Hair was longer, shorts were shorter and games were played no matter what the conditions.

As Manchester lad I would normally have been routing for our neighbors Oldham but since George was playing for Fulham I was just honored to watch him do his thing and the fourth goal was the icing on the cake!

My absolute favourite memory of George Best at Fulham. The greatest goal I have ever seen.

I’ve never seen that goal by Best before. Sublime. Thanks for putting this up! ⚽️😊

Probably a decade past his peak, yet still the best player on the pitch. 4:54

Wow. I was there for that match, and still have the programme somewhere. I remember the half frosty pitch. More importantly I remember seeing Best and Moore, the two players that mattered in my childhood. I feel very fortunate to have seen them both play. This was nearly 40 years ago. It is stunning. Thanks for posting this. How it is so well preserved is a miracle.

Dad and uncle took me for my 3rd game, I was 8 years old. Saw Hereford and Notts county before. Loved it. This started the torment and love I inherited supporting this magical club. Amazing job posting and fantastic to see it again.

Well I've viewed countless George best tributes and it amazes me I've never seen that goal before. The clip of him against Spain is a relatively new find and I just wonder if there are more unseen gems out there.

George Best You are a Fantastic Football player You are the Best George Best Good bye the Belfast boy World legend Maradona Cruyff Pele George Best is the Best

When in the Merchant Navy I persuaded some of my mates to watch this match at Fulham., me being an Oldham fan. To make it worse I had to be jeered and ridiculed at again the next day when it was shown on The Big Match.

I was at this match! Wow. I can't believe it. I remember the frost on the shaded side of the pitch. I certainly remember the score. I was just by the goal behind the coca-cola sign with my Uncle Patrick and his daughter. We saw George Best and Bob Moore that day come right up. I am so pleased to find this on youtube. Now I see I posted on this 6 years ago..... blimey... I forgot that, but remembered the match from 46 years ago.. It was a treasure then and it still is!

I always thought Mitchell and Maybank up front was a very useful combination. Nice video Ged, keep em coming.

used to love going to the cottage in the late 90's. Havent lived in UK for years, but seeing the kick off in day light and then full time whistle in the dark reminded me off going to watch fulham and then heading to the 8 bells for pints afterwards. Would of been amazing in the 70's to watch Best, Marsh and Moore.

Great video lovely memory i was 16 😉 come on Fulham 💪

Quality performance by Best. You can tell how his game changed in his final years at Man U how he couldn't be bothered as they didn't build a team around him as they should have.

George best nearly lost it there till Bobby Moore stepped in .

tavy@ i loved that chip from best. just a pure joy to watch, and on an ice rink lol. george best was the greatest ever!!! And that reversve pass with hes left foot over to the right on that ice and still moving was a joy too!!!!

Oldham almost always froze in front of the ITV cameras in the 1970s. There's also a dire 0-4 defeat at Bolton from the previous season on KZfaq, and we lost 0-6 at home to Aston Villa in the old Third Division in 1971-72.

george was the best ever he had it all .

I think this may have been my first ever match at the cottage.

They talk about George having had a short career but he almost made the World Cup in 1966 - Northern Ireland were knocked out by one goal in Albania. And had he kept himself fit he would have been called up for the NI WC squad in 1982

Like King Eric's goal v Sunderland. Pure Class.

Been looking for the match that contained Fulham’s 3rd goal. Remember watching it on The Big Match but couldn’t remember who it was against.

I just want to get on the field and be allowed to play. If people can judge me as a football player then that’s all I want. - George Best.

Class chip from Best

I was there!

Tavy@ that pass from best when he switched the play to the right wing and it created another goal with his left foot at 5.40 while running on ice and how every one thought how easy he could have just laid it on to some one next to him was a sign of this mans genius. I never expected best to switch that pass over to the right while running to the left. And neither did any one who watched that game. Becouse he played a pass basicly on an ice rinck to the players foot while running the other way. And then that chip lol a goal keeper at 6ft standing on his goal line woul have struggled to save that. That keeper looked about 6ft2 and he was 3 yards if that, off his line and still wouldnt have got it. Well george dummiend him a shot to make him slip lol then chipped him. Best set up at least 3 goals and scored one. Rip george and thancks.

I was there 13 at the time Wow 😲

United chants at the start... :)

cor, georgey best against my Oldham!

Anybody know what became of LES BARRETT and JIMMY CONWAY? 2 very good players for Fulham way back in those days

Fulham vs Holland.

George Best's goal was an unexpected pleasure.
