Peter Osgood dead

[Morbyd]

Legend.

Got to meet him once, though not much chance to chat. Really nice guy... sad I wasn't around to see him play. He left behind some great highlight reels, though.

Oh no, that's one of Tom's faves, he's got a signed shirt of his that was given to him when he was about 4

One of the greats, sad loss.

And, from a (my) professional point of view, he gave his name to a unique knee condition which affects the tendons.

 

[Morbyd]

Haha. I had Osgood-Schlatter's growing up (and it's named after the doctors that identified it, of course, not Peter). My right knee still not right. Got me out of running in PhysEd for a couple of years though.

 

[Robder]

I'll light a candle for him this evening.

Ditto. Didn't pussy out of any sports though Morby

Wouldn't call it pussying out since one good run would have me crawling up the stairs in my house for a week

Totally agree with you, Stu. I've got both legs of that final on video - 22 tough, talented players giving everything without a dive or a whinge in sight. Robben would have lasted about 10 seconds
