Apparently has suffered a heart attack back in France.
Unconscious but stable - get well soon from the Holte End
-
Agreed.....really hope he recovers

David Ginola @teamginola 2h2 hours ago
Footy match in the midday sun, not very clever. Now having some tests done. Whoever voted for a World Cup in Qatar in the summer?
-
Get well soon Ginola.
-
He's always had a healthy sense of humour, good to see it doesn't look serious. Half the women in the world would still sleep with him.
-
Get well soon David.
-
Only heard him on Talksport last week, was in great form.
-
Get well soon David
-
No good news. Be well David.
-
Hang in there big dave
-
Yes good luck David.

classic with Sir Rodney Marsh, when David Ginola corrected Rod as to his name. lol
-
Get well soon Dave
-
I really hope he pulls through. Loved him as a player. Magic.

We got him well past his best really as his peak was at Newcastle and Spurs but he still scored some quality goals e.g the Butchers dog Man. City goal.

From his twitter:

Apparently his agent tweeted that ^^^ and he's actually - according to L'Equipe - in a coma.
-
Get well soon, Fat Dave.

Read this and thought, ah he's fine. No worries.

Then read this. Fucking Hell.
Get well soon Daveed.

And probably a large percentage of the men!
-
Remember his debut at Villa Park. Bradford couldn't get anywhere near him. Kind of performance you'd pay money to watch.
Thought we might have been getting a show pony, just out for one last payday. But under a better manager than Gregory he could still have been a big player for us. He had the desire and -his own way- the workrate.
There is no point in signing a player like Ginola and then complaining that he doesn't track back. He hadn't in his career up until then, why was he suddenly going to start in his 30s?
He has always spoken well about us whenever asked too. Not empty rhetoric and platitudes either, sounds like he is actually bothered a bit. Which immediately puts him above the likes of Ray Houghton and (sadly) David Platt and Mark Bosnich. Players who did far more in a Villa shirt, but seem to see their time at VP as something to gloss over.
-
Bosnich? If true that'd be disappointing. Aside from a season at United and about five games for Chelsea all he knew was Villa.
-
According to reports from France he's had quadruple heart bypass surgery.
-
Ginola is now awake after a long operation last night He is doing well, speaking but has no recollection of what happened (From Libération about 30 minutes ago).
-
I hope he really is fine as opposed to the 'fine' that Michael Schumacher is continually reported as being
-
Doing well after heart bypass surgery.
-
Time for him to quit smoking I'd say.

Quadruple bypass
He's posting on Twitter

Isn't there some question as to whether it's him or his agent posting the tweets?

I read an article recently about most sensible slebs having digital media managers on their payroll.
-
If he's telling his agent what to type that's pretty encouraging.
-
After quadruple by pass surgery I would think he would be incapable of tweeting anything.

I've listed to Houghton and Bosnich on Talksport and never had that impression.

I was watching one of our recent games live on French TV (don't ask me which one, I have erased them all from memory) and after the final whistle David Ginola launched into a passionate speech about how gutted he was to see the plight we are in. He ripped into the wankers calling themselves footballers and told the watching French public what a great club we were.
-
Yeah I like Ginola always very respectful about us.

I'd like to see that, nowt on YouTube.

I was never a fan whilst he was playing and never really wanted him to sign, mainly because I thought he spent too much time on his arse whining at referees. But his public utterances since retiring have revealed someone who actually cares about the game, rather than those who just view it as an easy way to not working after 30.
guérissez bientôt (I hope I've remembered that correctly)
-
Bon rétablissement !
-
Get well soon David. All the very best to you.
-
Get well soon David.
-
Come back soon David. Don't let that plonker Cantona hog the limelight.
-
Get well soon David. If you don't we'll send Sue Barker over - she'll finish you off.
