well the sligo boys were right in there info on the player, his name Christopher Wreh, a former Arsenal striker and Liberian international. The man was unfortunately let go again, with the club stating that he was to much out of shape to play for the club, but, if he was interested in plying his trade at GUFC they would review him again in a months time if he was to get himself back in shape.

Delighted that the club didnt jump at the chance of signing a player just on his past achievements and are doing things the right way.

I never called him one, but the brother is a big arsenal fan living in london and says he is a legend for the things he did when playing for them.

Haha, he scored 5 goals in 46 games! Either your brother is delusional or people are overusing the word 'legend' to the point where its lost all meaning!

He's played for St. Mirren and Bournemouth, unsuccessfully and has had a crap time playing for sides that are no better than pub teams.

Give this dude the wide berth I think.

I never said the legend status was for what he did on the pitch !!

i said

he is a legend for the things he did when playing for them

maybe I should have said employed rather than played
