acrossthepond 1041 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Ignored this as I thought it was a birthday thread Wretched news, 31 is absolutely no age. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudger 0 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Haven't been on here for ages but found out the news about Jon through NUFC.com this morning. Knew Jon personally. Travelled to the Marseille match with him back in 2004. Really nice lad who was easy to get on with. Lost touch shortly after that bar a few messages. RIP mate.

Alex 38589 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) It's difficult to know what to write but I just wanted to say how saddened and shocked I am by this news. I heard about this yesterday but I still feel empty inside when I think about it. I met Jon on a number of occasions and he was a genuinely nice lad but, just as importantly, he was someone who didn't take himself seriously and who you could have a laugh with. This was obvious to anyone who encountered him either in person or on here (not to mention on Newcastle-Online where I know he also had many friends). Goodbye, Jon.

Baggio 0 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) Shocking news this, condolences to his family and partner. When you think about the community that has built up with Newcastle supporters online he is someone that has always been there since as far back as I can remember. There was never anything malicious about him or said in spite and it made him one of the most endearing personalities on both here and Newcastle-Online. A definite glass half full type of guy who will be missed for sure. RIP Jon. Edited July 22, 2014 by Baggio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 8178 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Meant 100% sincerely but maybe this topic should have have had the sub-heading 'Yes, Gemmill......' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Exactly my thoughts yesterday, but didn't quite like to say it incase someone took it the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I knew it wasn't a birthday thread as soon as it hit two pages, you're all alright for a whip round now and then but tight bastards when it comes to birthdays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 547 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Meant 100% sincerely but maybe this topic should have have had the sub-heading 'Yes, Gemmill......' I thought about that when I made the thread but it didn't feel appropriate at the time. Now that most people know it feels like the right thing to do.

maggiespaws 0 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Thanks to Craig passing this info to the NUFC.com guys, I've finally heard about this too. Shocked is an understatement. I think I only met him once, at pre-match drinks in the Trent. As a fellow OOT, places like Toontastic are really important to help keep up with whats going on and I always feel a bit of an affection towards fellow OOT's as it's hard sometimes to feel part of it all when you aren't living in Newcastle any more. I was never big friends with him, nor did I have any major contact with him, but he was someone who seemed a decent lad with a bit of craic. I echo the sentiments that have been mentioned thus far, especially those that (like me) have come out of the woodwork a bit just to pass comment. Terrible news for someone so young. Cath, if you've not sorted the wreath or whatever yet, I'd be happy to make a donation too. Is it worth using some of the money and offering to donate the rest to a charity of his Mam's choice? Perhaps related to alcohol or anxiety related issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
