Yes one of the most prolific batsman from there and certainly one of the top notch commentator of the world, so thumbs up for GEOF. BOYCOTT

I can remember when "Take That" was a boy band, rather than a Geoffrey Boycott chat-up line.

He was certainly a great batsman and had an amazing ability to concentrate through a game. He wasn't always the best team player though - a bit selfish, he would run his partner out rather than give his wicket away.
His personal life is not admirable, but has nothing to do with his sporting ability.

Well it must be between him and OJ Simpson
No it is OJ, he actually killed his wife
Dammit OJ isn't from Yorkshire
Yep you are right Boycott is the best wife beating sportsman ever from Yorks.

He was a great player in his own right. But that does not necessarily make him the greatest. Now with the ever improving vaughan , and Andy flintoff in the fray, the choice is difficult to make.

Very debatable, with Ian Botham and Kevin Keegan still alive.

No, he's an arrogant old toss pot, who never has a good word to say about any modern cricketers.
