Geordie Deb Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Just woke up to this. My god poor Jonas. Shocking news and that photo is gut wrenching.All the best Jonas hope you live long and strong. Now it's out in the public domain sure he will receive massive support from the fans. Still don't get the bit about the fact the guy had an op for cancer late last year ? October and in January he was told he could leave without any explanation. I remember his interviews at the time and how upset he was. No wonder Colo has been playing like shit. Seeing his great friend just recover from a cancer op and then being told to leave the club. Sad thing is no matter what the club say in mitigation, I won't believe them. What a state of affairs. Anyway what a fanstatic guy and fingers crossed despite the cancer spreading they manage to work their magic and get Jonas back to good health. Howay bonny lad, we're all behind you.

ian Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Jesus. Good luck Jonas. A round of applause in the 18th minute would be great. no Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Sad thing is no matter what the club say in mitigation, I won't believe them. It's diabolical that we're at this point. It's the sort of sentiment that would shame a man to hear it said of him. Pity Ashely and Pardew aren't men... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Jesus. Good luck Jonas. A round of applause in the 18th minute would be great. no Why not?

St1pe Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Awful news to see first thing on a morning. He's been a fantastic servant to the club that's always given everything despite his limitations and deserves some sort of tribute or gesture to support him while he's going through this.

Belfast Boy Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 What time did this all break in relation to the team photo yesterday? It would have been nice if the players could have done something for him, like an unofficial version of the photo all wearing spiderman masks. I suppose it all broke too late though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Hozzo Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 so instead of applause on the 18th minute (which were be merged with the 17th minute applause), something else ... shout for 'Jonas' for one minute, or Spiderman theme ... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better option would be to sing his song straight after the minutes applause(assuming it still goes on now) Breaks up a 2 minute clap and ensures people know what it is for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomson Mouse Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 People need to calm down a bit about this and not let the anti-Pardew sentiment affect this. I have read elsewhere that it was explained that Jonas wanted to go back to Argentina for treatment so he could discuss things with his Dr in Spanish and he didn't mind forking out for this himself. Apparently it was kept under wraps with Coloccini and a few other Argentinian players knowing about it. The club could have easily have said 'go and sort yourself out', hence the possibly lost in translation bit of Pardew telling him to leave (i.e. go home). Tbh I'd be surprised if anyone in the club was that callous to do something like people are thinking, especially after the way the handled the Liam and John situation. Most people seem to know or at least speculate that Jonas isn't getting played because of his contract. Just by mis-interpreting what was written things could be taken an entirely different way so I think we need to wait for a bit more info before hammering the club for this.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I assumed that was the case. We're bad, but we're not going to sack off a guy after finding out he has cancer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED209 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Jonas always seemed like a really good bloke and always appeared to give 100%, i hope it all works out for him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 The club have obviously let him go to be with his family and keep himself to himself whilst he battles this, which is absolutely fair. some of our supporters seem to misinterpret things to the extreme at times, instead of actually thinking it through. We're all fed up with Pardew and Ashley but this about thinking about one of ours, and crossing everything he pulls through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Pardew didn't tell him to leave, i.e. go home though. He told him to find another club. Whether you think that was right or wrong, Jonas has been very clear on the issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
