"It's a devastating day for football purists. Maradona's legend will live on forever."

6. Sean Pike - office manager, Old Harbour

"He was one of the footballers that spearheaded the evolution of the sport. During his time, he did some things that no one else did. I think the only person who could match up to him was Pele from Brazil, so he helped to revolutionise the sport to make it more popular and made a lot of persons begin to have more interest in the sport."
