Johan Cruyff has died

[Prince Monolulu]

I'm in a quizzing mood tonight, so tell me NSCers:

What honour does Peter Ward share with Johan Cruyff, Pele and Franz Beckenbauer?

Did they win Celebrity Masterchef?

THIS, THIS and THIS. A true legend as a player and a morally upstanding man.

and to think he was one of the greatest whilst smoking 20 a day!!!

Him and Best will probably be having a good time at the moment with booze and fags in that cloud in the sky

They had Jan Jongbloed in goal.

True, a STATUE was more mobile

Must admit until today I never was aware of this two stripe Adidas issue since he was affiliated with Puma.

Has anyone done the TURN for the worse gag yet?

No, but he'll be turning in his grave if they did!
A true legend has passed away. One of the top ten world players in my lifetime.

A very sad day for those of a certain age, he was an absolute genius and someone you always wanted to be in the playground.

The Amsterdam Arena, which is Ajax's home and the largest stadium in the Netherlands, is to be renamed the Johan Cruyff Arena in his honour.

A very fitting tribute.
