The thankyou Richard Dunne thread

[M35 Blue]

Truly gutted about this, always thought Dunney would be the one to lift our first trophy. (Proper trophy not that sad effort in Barca.)

 

[Bluemoonbaldboy]

?

According to O'Neill.

To be fair having read what O'Neil has said it is by no means certain could very much be like when Hull thought they had signed Bobby Zamora from Fulham contract was on the table he had been up to the KC saw the facilities but decided to stay and fight for his place.

Fantastic servant.

One of the most "honest" players we have had in years.
Bit gutted but times move on.

 

[bondsman]

Thanks for the service, for me id have sold Richards rather than you pal, or Bridge or De Jong for that matter. Just glad theyve let you go to a decent club and not shipped you off to Hull or some shite. Good luck.

 

[Pam]

If he wants to stay and fight for his place, good luck to him. If he goes, good luck to him. Love that Dunnymonster.

 

[Nicky D]

Good luck to Dunnie. To call him a great servant sounds cliched but it's true. It's just so rare to see a footballer stay at a club for the length of time he has these days, and what's better is the sheer consistency of his output, coupled with durability over the last nine years.

Just think of the changes Dunnie's witnessed! Maine Road to CoMs, Alfie Haaland to Robinho, and no less than five managers!

 

[BlueMoonRisingInNZ]

Player, Captain, Legend! Cheers Dunney you saved us from relegation on more than one occasion, we would not be where we are if not for you. Good luck to you and your family mate.

A credit to the club and his country.My 8 year lad was in the tunnel before the Celtic game and we didnt even have to ask for his autograph,he asked us!

Villa have got a diamond of a player and a man.

 

[harry the plumber]

It`s a shame our wealth didn`t come 5 years ago because the team would have been built around Dunney.
I hope he goes on and picks up a trophy at Villa,because if anyone deserves it he does.

 

[suvernbloo]

Thanks Dunney for the very good, good and bad times (there weren't too many) hope he enjoys a fruitful career with Villa. Still think he's better than Toure though

 

[nozzyblue]

thanks dunney tremendous server to the club.

 

[dave_blue12]

Sad to see you go Dunney Monster.

[BlueAlba]

Thanks for everything dunney! Sad to see you go

 

[beano46]

All the Best Dunney, thanks for your commitment in the past

 

[Bluemooner33]

He's here, he's there, he's every fuckin where Richard Dunne Richard Dunne....

All the best Dunnie Monster, you will always be a blue no matter which team your playing for.

 

[jcmanc72]

I know he was prone to the odd own goal here and sending off there, but overall he was a tremendous defender and I'm going to miss the big, daft apeth.

Good luck to him at Villa. Top man.

Farewell Big Man, A true captain.

Brave, Strong, Loyal, Committed, Honest and Proud to lead our Team, qualities that are very rare in these modern times, not only in the crazy world of overpaid footballers but also life in general.

The Standing ovation that awaits you when you return with Villa will be somewhere close to when Colin The King made his return.

PS: Please leave your standard 2 Cock Ups a season for when you play us : )

 

[Jay Division]

Farewell Dunnie, you will always remain a blue at heart, where ever you play. Thanks for everything.

All the best big fella.

 

[bell_mcfc]

Good luck Dunne and thank you for all those amazing performances, all those loyal years, all those deserved player of the year awards, wish him all best at villa just hope he don't deny us top 4, TRUE city legend

 

[Mike D]
