Virgo - Legend

[Gazwag]

"McGhee received through the post yesterday a start-of-season present from Adam Virgo, the Albion youngster he sold to his old club Celtic last month for £1.5 million.

Virgo has signed his No. 4 Celtic shirt with a special message of thanks to the manager for all his help. "


What a bloody nice gesture from an Albion legend

How the hell has he got the number 4 shirt at the Beggars?

Wonder if it was washed....

Top player, nice guy. Look at the difference between him an Hard-on at Leeds. I can't see Virgo getting booed by the Albion, but Hard-on will suffer. Some players are just naturally legends, others are money grabbing contract stuffing little toerags who deserve a good kicking when the Tank gets hold of him.....

Yeah it was so bad going to a club with better prospects and more money, like none of us would change jobs for that reason.

It's the way he did it UB. He was snidey & slimey about it - was never honest

I think we've assessed that its more to do with the way he left the club though.

Virgo is a legend. Harding is an arsewipe.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Harding didn't give a shit about his new contract with the us, if he wanted to move why didn't he say it months ago, instead of hanging us in the balance for so long. in my IMOH he a complete tosser who will get derserving booed, when we play them down here and away at Elland Road.

Virgs leading out a Celtic team at Falmer for a pre season friendly, that would be a marvelous sight.

I would suggest that as a first game but I want that to be against Doncaster Rovers!!!

But then if most of us are looking for a new job, we do not tell our current employers what is going on, until the new one is signed and sealed.

I know football is emotive, but he did what most of us have done when looking for a new job.

Harding IMHO has been badly adivsed on how to handle the move to Leeds. Whilst no one wants to stop a player moving onwards and upwards, as we do in our chosen careers. Virgo handled the move excellently where as Harding by all accounts agreed to sign but then stopped talking to engineer a more away from Brighton.

I only hope Harding dows well as it will mean more money for the Albion - but I agree he will get a bit of abuse when he returns to Withdean.

was it this shirt ?

Uncle Buck, welcoming one of the greatest teams in World football to Falmer would be fantastic, their fans are amongst the loudest (other than ourselves) that I have ever heard, even for a friendly the atmosphere would be something special.

Celtic wouldn't be bad either

Do not have any desire to see either of the Auld Firm at Falmer. They bring unpleasant baggage and there are other teams we could play.

Legend - A term that is far to easily bestowed on those who have done and achieved so little. Yes good player, servant to the Albion but legend........ Hardly Peter Ward or Bobby Z is he.
