To be fair, that could apply to them all.

Sad to see Maradona pass although 'his best days were behind him' as they say. When he first won the World Cup with Argentina we were both the same height, weight and age. All similarity ends there!
60 is no age to die despite his excesses.

Marmite.
Brilliant player at his peak but after THAT goal, a pantomime villain.

Maragonner

He has joined Arsenal?

[Charles Hawtrey]

He made you so angry, you almost broke into a two line post.

In a year of a global pandemic, we've also lost the stars, Des O'Connor, Bobby Ball, Sean Connery, Eddie Van Halen, Virgil Van Dijk, Chadwick Boseman, Vera Lynn, plus many, many more and now Diego Maradona.
2020 has been a rough year.

Very near my 61st and if 60 was the time then the planet would be healthier, as would the finances.

Seriously, I laughed at the VvD part but Chadwick Boseman still blows me away. He's my age, he had millions to make sure he stayed in the best of health and still had cancer take him. I mean....damn. That really sucks.

[Poor language removed] cancer.
