What do you think of Olaf Mellbergs parting gift to the Villa Supporters ?????

[bosco5209]

In an age where loylalty and Character are questioned in footballers. (flamini,gallas,drogba)


On Mellbergs final game for Aston Villa away at West Ham United, as a leaving gift, Mellberg gave every single Villa fan (3,200 +)at Upton Park either a home or an away shirt with his name and number on the back and the message thanks 4 your support.
Not to mind the 7 years he gave Villa at the top of his game, never questioning being played out of position , just being damn glad to be in a position to be paid fo play football.
Good Luck at Juve, enjoy the cash an the Italian birds an TY 4 the memories.
Villa and football in general could do with a lot more souls like u.

The sign of a true gentleman, and he probably only left as the next contract he gets will be the most important at his age. Supporting the family is the most important thing at this time in his career

good bloke, makes you think that there are actualy footballers now that arnt t***s. kind of think villa fans will remember AND football fans, im a blackburn supporter and im impressed by what he did. its like the opposite of what the derby players did.

The game needs more people like him.

Just read the story actually. Great parting piece (and out his own pocket too), they love him over there and I can see why, he's a real gentleman. Nice way to leave the fans Olaf, good luck in the future.
