[spursfan77]

Fucking hell thats terrible news. You'd of thought he would be ok with there being medical people probably quite close by.

 

[Dundalk_Spur]

Devastating for everyone involved, his family,friends and don't forget the boys who worked under him and were there when he collapsed.

Hope everyone gets the support they need from the club.

[robbiedee]

Fuck me...this is terrible news. So sad, 44 years old

I was going to crack on with some work - really don't feel like it now

Thoughts are with his family.

 

[DIEHARD]

Stuff like this scares the shit out of me. I mean 44 ain't old, I'm sure he was as fit as a fiddle.

Is this a joke??

No, under normal circumstances working people would be given time off work for such a tragic event. But the players won't be afforded that privilege, which seems unfair. How can they be expected to work when a colleague has just died?

 

[Drink!Drink!]

Horrible news, feel for his family


Have had experience of similar within my own family, can be incredibly traumatic thing to see. I hope, pretty sure, the club will offer support to the staff or players who were there and tried to help.

Rip Ugo

 

[Soi Yid]

RIP Ugo.

 

[DEFchenkOE]

Shocking news, RIP.

Thoughts to his family and everyone close to him, such a scary thing to happen. Looked like he was in great shape from all the recent photos. I know that's no real indicator but still.

 

[Luxspur]

RIP Ugo, thoughts with your family.

 

[SUIYHA]

Wow. Very sad news - completely out of the blue.

Always liked him as a player, thought he was a great defender for Villa when I was kid and he was always one of my first signings every season in the old Championship Manager games. By all accounts it seemed as though he was highly rated as a coach as well.

Hopefully there will be some sort of tribute to him at the game tomorrow.

RIP

Is this a joke??

I think it's a perfectly reasonable thing to think. My initial thought was how unbelievably sad this news is, then I thought about the effect it might have on the team. It's only natural to think that. Obviously if it had been a first team player then the match may have been postponed possibly, whereas it won't now but the players will still be grieving over him.

Rip Ugo
