Brad Jones needs your help. Please read
« on: April 9, 2011, 03:20:05 pm »
Probably the wrong place for this.

However if there is anyone able to help out one of our lads, registering would be good.

Please read and see the sacrifices Brad has made for his family and wish him all the best. Amazing how our club has supported him through all this aswell.

You'll get more people look at this if you change the title to something a little more explanatory.
I trust the King, but if we lose a few more on the trot now - he may have to step aside, and we have to purchase another manager in the middle of the season. If we are relegated, this could be the end of our ambitions to win any title the next 100 years.

Forget explanatory. Change the title to "Luis Suarez" and plenty will view it.

Just registered to give blood and will register for this too when I go to donate.

Shocking news, and sending all my best wishes to Brad and his family.

This is the first time that I've heard about this, thanks to it being posted up on here.

Hope Brad's little lad beats this horrible disease..

I totally agree..

Pray that little guy recovers fully from this. Good to see club providing all their support during this difficult time to one of our own.
