“Bobby era un uomo splendido. Non c’è un solo giorno in cui non pensi a lui. Quando se n’è andato, ho perso una parte di me. È stato il più grande capitano che l’Inghilterra abbia mai avuto, ma per me era semplicemente il mio migliore amico.”
Il legame tra Alan Mullery e Bobby Moore è stato una delle amicizie più profonde della storia del calcio, un’intesa magica tra due opposti. Londinesi entrambi Moore,capitano del West Ham,libero elegante, riservato e impenetrabile sotto pressione. Mullery,capitano del Fulham, l’esatto contrario: un centrocampista focoso, schietto ed emotivo. Eppure, divennero come fratelli.
Il momento di svolta arrivò nel 1970, durante il drammatico scandalo del “braccialetto di Bogotà”. Poco prima del Mondiale in Messico, Moore fu falsamente accusato di furto e messo agli arresti nell’hotel in Colombia. La situazione era tesa e potenzialmente devastante per il morale dell’Inghilterra campione in carica.
Mentre il mondo esterno gridava allo scandalo,Mullery decise di agire a modo suo: prese un mazzo di carte e entrò in stanza dell’amico. Lì, sotto gli occhi di due poliziotti con i fucili puntati,iniziarono a giocare. Non fu una semplice partita, ma uno “scudo emotivo” per il suo capitano. Giocarono insultandosi amichevolmente a ogni mano vinta da Moore, calcolatore implacabile anche a carte. Nei momenti di silenzio più cupo, per trasmettergli forza, Mullery gli accarezzava la mano.Quel gesto così intimo e protettivo costrinse Bobby a concentrarsi sull’affetto dell’amico anziché sulle manette.
Quando la squadra dovette partire per il Messico lasciando Moore temporaneamente a Bogotà,Mullery in lacrime fu l’ultimo a salutarlo, promettendogli che avrebbero giocato solo per lui. Moore non dimenticò mai quella lealtà. Scagionato dalle accuse, raggiunse i compagni tre giorni prima del debutto, trovando l’intera squadra disposta a picchetto d’onore in hotel.
Il destino li riunì nel 1974 al Fulham: fu Mullery a volerlo a Craven Cottage per gli ultimi anni di carriera. Insieme guidarono la squadra fino alla storica finale di FA Cup del 75 contro il West Ham. Persero sul campo, ma la loro fratellanza rimase eterna fino alla scomparsa di Moore nel 1993.

Special day today getting to interview hat-trick scoring, World Cup winning, last surviving member of the hallowed ‘66 team - Sir Geoff Hurst.

Loved listening to his autobiography and rewatching old footage from ‘Medieval times’ as he called them in preparation. So strange now seeing Union Jacks waving across Wembley as the late Queen presented the trophy to captain Bobby Moore.

As Sir Geoff said, everything has changed in football since then except for the goalposts and the behaviour of the Argentinians(!).

Got the honour with my @grassrootsoccer UK Board Chair hat on, together with Talks @goldmansachs as one of GRS’s valued charity partners, with board members Roberta Moore, Steve Considine, Quinton Fortune.

GrassrootSoccer use football as the hook to educate adolescents in Sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere about health based issues from HIV/AIDS to sexual health to gender based violence to mental health, with an evidence-based, trauma-informed program and proven results.

Bucket-list moment. 🤩

More of this week's big news: the Football World Cup has started...
As my #haiku & #tanka (2) both show, I've got no interest in football, to the extent that I've no idea how to hold a conversation about it. I guess it's shameful that, at the age of 64, I'm still adopting a 'cop-out' tactic that I've used every four years since I don't know when...& as my social milieu tends to change from one World Cup to the next, it never ceases to impress! The fact remains that I really should try to learn something about football. I have to say in my defence - I'm not a name-dropper by nature, but I think that my little plug may always be a worthwhile thing to mention anyway: this year marks the 60th anniversary of England's last World Cup triumph - a fact that many wouldn't like to be reminded of...but it's a measure of Moore's enduring legacy that his achievement remains unequalled in all this time: he's still so strongly remembered.
I've reposted the detailed story (3), although I think the family might have lived in Chigwell rather than Loughton, but, if so, I'm not far off.
On a personal note, as I mentioned - during my time at the City of London School for Girls, I lost my mother to bowel cancer when she was 49: Moore sadly passed away of the same illness in 1993 at the age of 51 (correction to age I gave); furthermore, both he and mum are buried in the same cemetery: the City of London Cemetery in NE London.
As the haiku points out, even though I now live in Germany, England has to have my support: this history demands it! #fifaworldcup #bobbymoore

The season is over, an this video sums up how I feel about my club ⚒️
We weren’t and haven’t been good enough. That’s football. And despite it all, to say I’m proud of our boys on the pitch getting a 3-0 win for the dying embers of the season is an understatement.
.
You don’t become a West Ham fan for glory, it’s an affliction and lifelong honour from birth.
It’s because of the area and culture you are connected to. It’s the history of the club, it’s the players, fans, staff and businesses that bleed claret and blue. It’s the roots and the soul of where you are from.
.
The season is over.
Roll on no VAR.
Roll on Millwall away ⚒️
.
To all the West Ham fans over land and sea. Come on you Irons! ⚒️

Tough result today, but the Miami Hammers still have faith!

We had the honor of watching the match with Bobby Moore family members including @robertamoore_65 and @tinamoore6644 It was an absolute privilege to spend time with such a special family who carries the legacy of football with grace and kindness. A great memory that the Miami Hammers will always cherish.

Always great times @theleinstermiami

On Saturday last I was treated to the best unexpected visit I’ve had in a long while 🙌🏽⚒️
.
Mr Dudley Tyler stopped by ⚽️
He saw my Boleyn Ground sign in my window ⚒️
.
Dudley played for Hereford United from 1969, and was part of the famous Newcastle United FA Cup giant killing side in 1972 (including that Ronnie Radford goal and a young John Mostson on commentary)
.
In the next round vs @westham Dudley was spotted by our legendary manager Ron Greenwood. With the sale of @harryredknapp to @afcb (Bournemouth)
Mr Greenwood needed a RW/RM, so signed Dudley for a record non league fee of £25,000.
.
Dudley took up the No.7 shirt (also the same number I played in as a young lad and RW too; hence also my link to favourite player as a young lad @mark.ward1962
.
Dudley played at the Boleyn Ground for West Ham for two seasons (injury and lack of playing time towards the end of his 2nd season brought him back to Hereford United again)
.
Dudley played with and alongside Sir Bobby Moore, Sir Trevor Brooking, Clyde Best, Frank Lampard Snr, Billy Bonds, Pop Robson, Tommy Taylor, Ronnie Boyce and some ⚒️⚒️⚒️
.
I can’t tell you what it meant to me to spend some time with Dudley in my little place and to talk to him about one of my major life’s passions that I hold so dear.
.
To see him talk about Sir Bobby Moore, as a team mate, as a man, as a friend, is something I feel im still taking in, profound really.
To hear Dudley talking about his playing time alongside some of our West Ham icons is a moment I’ll keep forever. Extremely special.
.
Dudley is, and always will be a Hammer, and holds West Ham close in his heart.
.
I’ve promised Dudley brews and snacks on me, next time he stops by @hereford_buttermarket to come say hello. We is now proper mates 😎⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️⚽️😎
.
It was an absolute pleasure to have Dudley in my lil comic stall an to spend some quality time with him.
Thank you Dudley. ⚒️⚪️⚫️
An absolute Gentleman ⚒️

“FOREVER BONZO “. Stavolta fa male, molto male. Per chi ama il calcio inglese come il sottoscritto, la notizia di oggi provoca una voragine emotiva. Billy Bonds e’ morto. Billy non è stato solo un grandissimo giocatore è stato un istituzione del football inglese.Se amo questo calcio in larga parte lo devo a lui……perché lui come segno del destino aveva un compito ed una missione suprema, sostituire il più grande di tutti come capitano del West Ham, Bobby Moore. Billy lo ha fatto con la dedizione e la tenacia di un guerriero diventando per gli Hammers un esempio assoluto, 21 anni nel West Ham un intera vita, 799 partite 799 battaglie sempre a testa alta correndo dall’inizio alla fine senza mai fermarsi. Oggi il guerriero ha detto che bastava così,aveva un altra partita più importante da giocare, tornare dal suo capitano “Mooro” per continuare insieme fianco a fianco nel grande stadio del Paradiso, quello più importante, perché sono stati dei veri campioni e dei veri uomini. Billy su quel campo correrà senza mai fermarsi per l’eternita. Addio “Bonzo” , con te se ne è andata una parte della mia giovinezza. RIP❤️🙏 @shark_1963_

Happy 90th birthday to my Dad, Bill Lansdowne, West Ham's second-oldest living ex-player. I've written about him and my brother's professional football careers in the next issue of 'Backpass', so I'll be giving this to him later today. #whufc #westham #hammers #billlansdownesnr #retrofootball
