SuperBacon Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 Diego's brother has passed away as well. I've just been out and picked up the new Guillem Balague book on Diego as well, anyone else got/read it? I've sadly lost my copy of El Diego, which is still one of the best autobiographies I've ever read.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted April 8, 2023 Author Share Posted April 8, 2023 I'm turning my WFH space at home into a bit of a Diego shrine, and am going to get some prints made. These being the first lot. I'm sorry I didn't flag this at the time and think the pre-order has run out, but I ordered this Maradona In NapoliĀ book, as it came back in stock with a 'vintage' Napoli scarf.Ā https://stanchionbooks.com/products/maradona-in-napoli-book-and-scarf?_pos=1&_sid=0bceb5db3&_ss=r There is ANOTHER book out, Inside Diego, which I'll obviously buy as well. An excerpt was in The Guardian yesterday.Ā https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/apr/07/diego-maradona-win-world-cup-on-his-own-mexico-86 And as its the 10th anniversary, enjoy this.

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted April 8, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) If you're not familiar with the site, Mr Trickett is also a Diego and Napoli obsessive, and regularly has unique or perculiar Neapolitan trinkets on sale on his site. I have this lovely cappuccino mug from thereĀ Edited April 8, 2023 by Arch Stanton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted April 8, 2023 Author Share Posted April 8, 2023 Forgot to add that I've recently started subscribing to Mundial Magazine (oh come on, are you really shocked?) and this was their cover last time out which they've turned into a great t shirt.Ā https://mundialmag.com/collections/store/products/portrait-of-the-artist-as-a-young-t-shirt?variant=43543430725844 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 The great man will have been looking down with pride last night at Napoliās title win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpiritOfTheForest Posted May 6, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted May 6, 2023 Ā Napoli last night was something else. There were even a few fireworks over here (and I'm sure the guy who owns the gun shop down the street was actually firing a gun in the air at one point). Quite incredible to think that for a team with the reputation of Napoli, this is the first title they've won in my lifetime and I'm 32.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 3 years ago Saturday since the great one passed and here to commemorate that is a cracking picture of him with Queen. Imagine how much chizzle they could've got through together. Tony Khan levels. And also, there is a Spanish language magazine called Panenka that has reissued their Maradona edition. https://tienda.panenka.org/es/panenka-112 IĀ thinkĀ I've ordered it. Even with the translation on the website I was bit lost. Another one for the shrine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
