Ron Noades has lung cancer (ed. RIP)

Covered EndCovered End
edited December 2013 in Other Football and Sports
As someone mentioned our groundshare on the Curbs thread, I thought it was pertinent to mention this.

Mind you, I was in two minds, so I'd be grateful, if we didn't get any sick comments, as I wouldn't wish that on him or anyone, even if we do hold a hatred for the guy.

Thanks.

    Football 'hatreds' are a league apart to real life.

    Horrible disease. Good luck Ron

    Or, "RonNoadsamoney" as he was known in VOTV (I think). Good luck Ron.

    I didn't much like things that I heard, but for goodness sake I wish him a full recovery. Well done everybody for avoiding silliness.

    In 1991, Noades provoked controversy with his comments on the racial make-up of his team: ""The black players at this club lend the side a lot of skill and flair, but you also need white players in there to balance things up and give the team some brains and some common sense."

    I genuinely don't remember this from the time - does anyone?

    Still, wouldn't wish that on anyone.

    One of my best mates been diagnosed with this, went to say goodbye to him yesterday, I was devastated last night. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. Don't know you Mr Noades, but you have my best wishes and the same goes to your family.

    good luck to Ron Noades .. the consolation (if there is one) is that he's lived quite a long and I am sure, a full life

    Good luck Ron. Remember a Palace fan telling me that Ron was being abused at a Palace supporters forum for allowing us to groundshare and he responded in a typical forthright manner, more-or-less telling them that without our rent money, they would be heading for Administration and that Charlton could have bought Palace for what we paid in rent at the time.

    Cheers Red-murph, hard sad day, but it was also fun going over the good old days, the fun we had, hopefully we eased the pain for a few hours. Lost my brother within 6 weeks with that bastard disease as well. Always hurt, one day hopefully we will beat it.

    Made worse by hearing of 3 people dying this week all off it, think I will have a beer :-)

    I won't go on but mentioned on another thread that my mother in law also has it. Complete bastard of a disease.

    Chin up and enjoy that beer and raise it high.

    Lung cancer is not a forgiving disease. I wish him all the luck in the world.

    Good luck Ron.
    My dad died from lung cancer 23 years ago today. Horrible disease and not the way you choose to go.

    I'm not afraid of death, but I am of dying.

    Yep, the best of luck in his battle. For anyone who smokes - lung cancer is food for thought. It can occur without it but smoking tobacco products greatly increases the chances.
