Wullie Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Club have been brilliant, however, I implore all N-O members, please please please, if I meet an early exit on the way to a Newcastle match, do not, under any circumstances, let Alan Pardew turn up at the funeral. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Drove past the funeral procession, feels a lot closer to home seeing his hearse, before that I had only really seen anything about it in the media. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Alder Sweeney Memorial Garden, which has been constructed in front of reception in the main Milburn Stand at the Club's home, St. James' Park, will stand as a lasting tribute to John, Liam and all Newcastle United supporters who have sadly passed away.

Joey Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 From the link I read (can't remember where) it seems they had found body parts. Must be even worse having to deal with that if it was your loved ones. Glad he's finally been found though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
