Under every seat in the Villa away section at Upton Park the other day was a t-shirt with Mellberg written on it and 'Thanks for the Support' (or similar)
Paid for by the man himself, that is a great touch in these days of millionaire footballers changing clubs all the time and not giving a stuff about the fans. Thought it was worth a mention here. |

definately.
Mellberg has always been a player i admire, he is solid, committed and displays the kind of genuine passion thats all too rare nowadays. i would have loved him at my club and i have to admit i will be sad to see him go. his gesture only enforces that view and i wish him every success. not only that but he is a beard growing machine! (full credit to West Ham United for allowing this to happen at their ground as well  ) |

yeah i heard that on MOTD last night and thought it was really nice of him to do. think it was an actual villa shirt with his name on the back
 |
||||||||

I heard about this also, He's showed amazing appreciation to the Villa for by doing this. I wonder how much It set him back.
|

He bought the shirts off Big Rev - they were not the official ones, so probably got change out of a fiver!
|
||||||||

|
|
He has been a good player for Villa and it was nice to see him give the fans them tops.
|
||||||||
|

|
|
Good on the fella, its nice to hear a story about a player giving something back.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Yup like everyone said great what he did. Will be a big loss for Villa
|
||||||||

At last a player who uses actions other than just words to show appreciation to fans who spend hundreds of pounds a season on the team. With all the money they earn, something like this isn't exactly going to dent their bank balance, and us fans appreciate gestures like this a lot.
Take note Spurs players, other than Hutton and Robinson. |

What a great guy, players like him are all too rare these days, unfortunatly
ANd im with you Steely, that man can grow a damn fine beard! |
||||||||
|

I had no idea you had this kind of affection for Olof. "admire" "he is solid" "committed" "displays passion" "i would have loved him" "enforces" "growing machine"...  |

Steely admires anything that relates to "growing hair." I don't think I have to go further than his picture to prove my point.
Great gesture by Mellberg... I wonder why Harry Kewell didn't do that... OH RIGHT... he doesn't play... |
||||||||
|

|
|
Nice gesture, he deserves to be fondly remembered by Villa-fans.

Haha Ja Axe, when I first saw Steely had replied to this topic i opened it expecting something cynical and some expletives to be used but i was pleasantly surprised.
