Kerry Mayo appreciation thread

[El Presidente]

Lost his meal ticket, shame, hardly a job turning up playing for the stiffs. Should have gone 399 games ago. In the big world now unless his friend can find a coaching job at the college.

Not a LEGEND.

Good to see the club moving in the right way for a change and not being a charity for sub standard players

Once a f***ing wanking arsehole, always a f***ing wanking arsehole.

 

[NMH]

A positive influence if it were only for his EXAMPLE he set to the other players;
Training hard through the years without faltering, always turning up regardless of playing or not, interest in the fortune of the club, and the team on matchdays, never throwing hissy-fits when not picked, always amenable whenever encountered at the ground, has time for others and does not carry an attitude.

Can anyone tell me what's not to like about Kerry as a person or as a professional man??

 

[BatterSeagull]

Absolute legend

Thanks Kerry for all the years of dedicated service to the Albion cause.
Your place in the Falmer Hall of Fame is assured.

More like you and we wouldnt have got into this mess.

The very best of luck wherever fate takes you. You can still hack it mate and I hope you have several more years down that left wing.

 

[Wardy]

Thanks for all the memories Kerry. Good luck for the future.

 

[hitony]

I would like to thank Kerry for his contributions to the club over the last 14 years.

And as for the negative comments, everyones entitled to an opinion, but being downright rude is just not necessary.

 

[Silverhatch]

Maybe a season too late but a fair few said that about OGH and without him...

400 games for The Albion and a solid, no nonsense, kept his mouth shut pro.

Must be up there in the all-time appearance list for the club - so any bad-mouthing of him on the day of his release is just a limp-dick cheap shot.

 

[dougdeep]

Radio Sussex described him as the club servant.

 

[Silkster365]

We did this last year.

He should never have then been allowed to play the old pals act.

I'll finally believe The Ginger Slug has gone for good when there's been no reports of him sniffing around the training ground and being 'invited to train' over the Summer.

Sorry, but Mayo should just f*** off. FOREVER.

Made me laugh out loud, just because of how utterly ridiculous this comment is!

Well done Kerry, a true legend of the blue and white. I hope that you find success in whatever you do next.

 

[philgull25]

Thanks for all the effort mayo. Deserve all you achieved. You are an Albion Legend and dont let some idiots on here let you think otherwise

don't hold back!

Goodbye ginger prince. Thank you, well done and good luck.

 

[Zebedee]

All the very best for the future Kerry and thanks for everything you've done for the club over the years.

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Cheers Killer Kez. Thanks for everything

 

[e77]

Good luck to him. Granted went a season or two too far (which you can't blame him for) but fine servant.

 

[murraymints4brighton]

Thanks for your efforts and i hope he finds a new club but it was definitely time for him to go.

 

[Gully]

No they are being utter wankers, if they dont rescpect a player who has given 14 years to this club then well...

...and I suspect they would have been first in the queue to shake hands, and have their picture taken, with Peter Ward during his recent visit...a man who didn't play anything like as many games for the Albion before taking a big money move to Forest, yet he is about as big a legend as we have!

...football is a funny old game, yet some who follow it are about as amusing as the plague!

All hail the ginger prince!

Firstly you do not know me secondly I am not a frequent poster on touchy subjects. No one has ever called me anything before and just that I post something you do not like you abuse me.

The point I was making is here is someone who has been at the club a long time who has never really made the grade imho and who has most probably taken wages in excess of £500 000 in that period. He has not technically lost his job but his contract has run its course.

As has been mentioned on many threads today do not forget this squad of players narrowly missed relegation to the lowest division and its good to see a new broom sweeping away the under achievers. Sentiment plays no part in a successful sporting teams. This club has acted like a charity to some players and that is not healthy or to the betterment of the club.

I truly hope all those going find alternative employment but life goes on. I'm sorry if I've offended.

 

[Davey Boy Smith]

Kerry Mayo. Albion legend. END OF

 

[British Bulldog]

Thanks for everything Kerry and good luck for the future.

And for all the people who knock him just remember you dont get to play 400 games for one club under all the managers we've had unless you've got something about you.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Good luck, Kerry ... Albion to the core and a very decent player on his day.

Does no-one remember him being the Club's top scorer in 1997/98 ... and runner-up to Danny Cullip as Player of the Year in 2003?

 

[king Wombat]

never been a fan of him myself. But he always gave 100% and to play the number of games he has done should equate for some measure of respect.
