I remember watching us beat Norwich 1-0 as a kid (cobi's first goal), in the first half after an atrocious mid-air backpass made oggy resort to a diving header in order to clear it. Month or so later I went to the open day, as a starstruck kid I mentioned that moment to him. "Oh no, I just fell over" he replied, with a smile and a wink.
@@robertmason6366 No cause for complaint except for being the ugly bird at the dance and that can't be helped unfortunately. Coventry accepted the fee. Not like he was poached on a bosman.
Great story with Oggy on the bus. Forever a legend, was a privilege to watch him from the West Stand in his prime.
Great tribute Dion ..... Loved Oggy in goal for us and wish we had players like Steve and Dion now.
Those were interesting times!
good words. oggy. legend
From one Sky Blue Legend to another, PUSB.
Youre joking.. once you go to Villa you lose legendary status.
@@robertmason6366 well that's a lot of legends we don't fucking have then 🤣🤣🤣
Dion was my hero at CCFC , What a nice guy he is
Me too, sadly the team never really recovered from his leaving.
Say what you want about Dublin this is a classy message cheers
Really sincere too, the way he emphasized 'your' and gave the salute. You can very well believe that he was a father figure to some.

Nice touch Dion.
Oggy is what you will never be Dion and that's loyal. Going to the Vile was an Evil act of betrayal against the Sky Blue faithful!!
Grow up. If you got offered a better job on more money you would take it. Why shouldn't a footballer do the same?
We paid you very well for him! Dion was a great servant for both Villa and Coventry
@@19822andy did you hell. That was peanuts for 20 goal a season striker that can play cb as well.
@@robertmason6366 5.7 million if I remember correctly was plenty back then! Even for a 20 goal a season striker!
