Heron Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I'd far rather he got the money regardless of what he does with it. It's not his fault we're likely to fuck up a multi-million pound Sky deal. £2million is fuck all to NUFC and furthermore Mike Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 He was also shoehorned into nigh on every game much to everyone's dismay and then dropped and loaned out after his diagnosis. I've said this a million times, but they got in that PR bloke and broke the news of his cancer (despite already knowing much earlier) and had players wearing shirts in support of him in an attempt to deflect attention away from the protest against Pardew vs Hull. They used a man who they shunned's cancer as a tactical move when it suited them and their lowly agenda, before Jonas himself outed the truth about them knowing and casting him aside until they could use it for their own advantage. It doesn't get mentioned that often in the list of things they've done, but it's up there as the most heinous to me. Absolutely revolting pigs, the lot of them, Pardew included.

Troll Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Didn't we avoid triggering his contract extension simply because he wasn't actually very good? Hard to ague against that evidence tbh. If that was the case why did we put him back in for the last few games when we knew we couldn't trigger it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started the first game where he was subbed before half-time, then made a substitute appearance in October. That was it in 4 months he was here that season?

Wallace Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Whatever anyone thought of his playing ability, he was pretty much a regular in the team/squad until he was diagnosed with cancer - it wasn't as if he had become a peripheral player before then. Would the club have stopped playing him and tried to push him out at the same point had he not been diagnosed with cancer - it is debatable. I remember a game away to Cardiff which was his last game before he went back to Argentina for treatment, where we were hanging on to a lead and he came on as a late substitute and help shore up the defence. He would definitely have been effective in that role. What isn't debatable is that the club used his illness for PR purposes when it suited them. I have no doubt that the club acted callously and exploited his illness but it is quite common for clubs to have clauses in players contracts where an extension kicks in if they play x number of games and for clubs not to play players when they don't want to give them that extension. I have recently heard of one or two players who are currently in that position - just can't think who they are the moment. Morally it stinks but I am not sure where he stands legally although his representatives must think he has a case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 More disgusting behaviour by what has become a mostly disgusting club. Irrespective of your thoughts about Jonas the player, Jonas the man has always been a credit to the club and city and a terrific guy to boot. What appears to be a lack of concern from the medical staff and what was certainly an incredibly callous initial response to his diagnosis shows this regime to be the heartless bastards we all know too well. The ham-fisted PR far too late in the game made the reality of their failings all too clear. We wonder why players stagnate here. Why would you want to play for people who treat your teammates like this? Why would you have pride in this sort of thing? Not only do we fail to show even a shred of ambition, we are cold and uncaring in the face of cancer. Of course players don't play to their standards when experiencing a work environment like that. No one would. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I remember at the time there were rumours he had a clause in his contract that meant if he played another X amount of games his contract would be extended by 2 years. No doubt, that was put out there by the club to deflect from the very ugly truth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I'm sure this won't be about making money, for Jonas. It's about showing up (hopefully!) those who run the club, to be the cunts that we all know they are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Of course he's suing for money. There's no other way for laws like disability discrimination to be enforced, nor any other way for companies who break them to be punished. That's just the way the system works. To insinuate that because he's a rich man he should let an even richer company get away with breaking laws (if that's what they have done) is ridiculous.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The club or rather individuals employed by the club showed complete malice towards Jonas and his situation and they also showed massive cowardice. There are not many people at NUFC that I would consider real men. Rafa is a man, Jonas most certainly was. The rest? I wouldn't like to have any of them beside me when the s*** hits the fan so to speak. They would buckle or break. Just look at where we are in the table and the manner of our performances at times over the years. Cowards in the main! You can see why Hughton was sacked because he believed in strong characters and had a group of real men leading the team, even if they had character flaws. The club didn't like that and it was no coincidence that a good number of them or most of them were shipped out often at a loss or with no profit made. Jonas was the only good thing about our club last season, him and Perez. The way he was treated will forever be a dark stain on our history for me. He deserved his starring role in keeping us up, but the club did not deserve his input that day nor their PL status. Not on the back of Jonas and his efforts anyway. Whatever your thoughts about him as a footballer, as an individual, it cannot be denied that he was an awesome bloke, a top professional and someone who whenever he pulled on that shirt gave nothing but 100% and connected with fans in a way that more talented individuals simply never did, couldn't or never will. And that's because (for me anyway) when I look at Jonas, I just see a normal bloke thrilled to be paid fortunes for playing a game he loves. A game he tried to make more entertaining for fans. Basically he could have been any of us fans out there on that pitch. I hope he gets as much money as possible and the s*** stains culpable are revealed for what they truly are - c***s, cowards and absolute s*** houses.
