Casey Posted September 26, 2025 Share Posted September 26, 2025 Aye. They have concrete walls surrounding the pitch (bad enough in itself) and very little run-off/margin. You can find pictures online but yeah leave it that. Just very sad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leffe186 Posted September 26, 2025 Share Posted September 26, 2025 Awful. There’s a guy on Spurscommunity who had asked people to keep Vigar in mind when it had just happened - his best friend’s daughter was Vigar’s girlfriend. Just heartbreaking.

We've had minutes silences in the past for players who had no connection to us so for a player who played 290 times for us, including the Fairs Cup Final, and then went on to manage us, so he's a club legend basically, a minutes silence should be the vey least tribute he's given.

Jonas Posted October 4, 2025 Share Posted October 4, 2025 Oh wow. That's huge and sucks. Club legend before club legends were common. Was the manager when I first got into this, not quite attending but paying some attention, and like Roeder was captain, they're on a pedestal for that alone. Relative of mine temporarily replaced him as manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted October 4, 2025 Share Posted October 4, 2025 RIP i was randomly reading about his career on Wiki last week and was much better than I thought it was - probably down rated him because of all of the NE5/Mick nonsense on forum way back when Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame it all went wrong for him at the start of the 88/89 season, but what he achieved with that squad the previous season was pretty phenomenal, it made a lot of fans very proud. The thing I'll always remember about Colin Suggett's time in charge was that win v Middlesbrough. Pretty sure we beat them 3 zip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
