Ever since the story of Collins tearing up his Villa contract came to light on social media, football fans gave their reaction…
James Collins refused to be paid by #AVFC after injuring himself shortly after a deal was offered. He tore up the deal (according to The Mirror).
Wow.

Fair play to him. Should be given every chance to earn another short term deal ?

Many praised him for doing the noble thing and not letting Villa pay for the ripped up contract that he signed…
? James Collins has tore up his £50,000 contract with Aston Villa only hours after signing it
Apparently it is because he injured his calf and refuses to be paid while injured
Classy move from Collins#AVFC pic.twitter.com/DmmMMjTEt2

James Collins apparently ripping up a contract with Villa hours after signing, reportedly due to the fact he’s injured and refuses to be paid during that time.. ??????
Don’t make geezers like him anymore.
Maybe Carroll and Wilshere wanna take note.

If true, I fully respect James Collins it as players like Micah Richards would take the ££ like he has done for nearly 3 years. I question if he is this injury prone should we look elsewhere when he’s fit? #avfchttps://t.co/OCjuc9ytEP

James Collins deserves a star on broad street, Micah Richards deserves snooker balls in a sock. #avfc
