JJ 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Jesus man that's dreadful. RIP Jon. One of the few from the early days I spoke to a lot but never ever got round to meeting. Always seemed a really good guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catmag 337 Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Any relation to Jim Christie? Not that I know of, despite that side of the family being from South Shields. Donations are coming through fast lads, thank you. Up to £250 between here and N-O already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Just can't believe this. One of the first posters I had "banter" with. Absolutely devastating news. Nothing else matters. Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I had to go out and put my phone into airplane mode for most of the day just to avoid thinking about this. Absolutely can't believe it at all, can't stop thinking about whether there was anything at all we could've done (I know really there wasn't btw).

Tom 14011 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I had to go for a walk to clear my head like - there's been so many awful things happening to United fans the past week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackas 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I haven't posted on here in years but I also felt the need to come on today. Reading the news this morning came as such a shock. Absolutely tragic. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophyshy 7083 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I've only just seen this. I'm so sorry for his family and friends. I've been in bits about that plane and those lads all week but this is bloody dreadful news. Just awful. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 33129 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Speaks volumes that people who are very seldom on here have felt compelled to break their radio silence. Had limited chat with Gejon but he seemed a decent lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 15518 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 If anyone wants to contribute then my paypal is themistymisschristie@gmail.com I'll send flowers tomorrow and then will donate the rest to Sir Bobby's fund in a week or so. Thanks Cath, for that and being the message-bearer on such a rotten day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Tragic news, spoke a fair bit to him back in the day, good laugh.Condolences to his family and friends. Will be donating via Cath's fund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg 6 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Absolutely tragic news to wake up to this morning. I don't post much these days but years ago I used to chat with Jon on MSN talking nonsense for hours on end back in the day. I don't really know what to type, been thinking about this all day and struggling to fully get my head around it. Thanks to Cath for organising and contacting family, I'll be donating. Thoughts are very much with family and friends. Edited July 20, 2014 by Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2204 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Shocking news. I remember Gejon from when I used to post on NO back in the day and he always came across well. Its a tragedy and 31 is no age at all. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6682 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Absolutely lost for words. Can't begin to think how his family must feel. The very fact that some who haven't posted here for quite some time have logged in to pay their respects speaks volumes for the respect we had for him. Nothing will be the same again. Absolutely gutted. RIP Jon. Edited July 21, 2014 by Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 http://www.toontastic.net/board/topic/14553-what-do-you-think-of-everyone/ Searched for "Gejon" in this thread. Made me laugh. In a nutshell, he was a decent poster that once claimed to be a black cunt (he denied this and pinned it on Baggio). Indistinguishable from Me, Renton, Chez, Tooj & Luke. A Boxer, a Leazes-baiter (which makes him a good lad), like the wops in world wars, he went on whoevers side was winning (he denied this strenuously). He seemed nice enough but was also apparently a seriel rapist (he didn't deny that one). The unanswered question is whether he posted a load of stuff about a lass he liked, got her to sign up to either here or N-O and then finished with her not long after? Lad. A fitting TT tribute. Best not put it on the card though Cath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 It's one of Happy Faces' famous compendiums. Though I do think Stevie called him a WOP and Wacky called him a Serial Rapist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj 17 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 One of the only chaps I've consented to sleep in my sister's bed. Those piss ups back in the day were legendary. Can't begin to think what the family are going through but I hope they can take some solace from the fact that they raised an outstanding human being and the world would be a better place if we had more Jon Lockwood's in it. RIP man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
