This place is like an old fashioned pub where we all get to partially know each other, annoy each other and make each other laugh. Tobes played a big part of making this place somewhere worth coming to (like so many others have) so I have a lot of time for him tbh. I hope it's a little consolation to Tobes that so many have said warm things about him. Hope all who know him personally are OK too. Really hope to read you taking the piss out of Burnley for stealing Everton's relegation place! Also, Brb...thanks for letting us know...must have been difficult to know when to do so.
Come on Tobes, whatever it is, beat this away like you always do….I want to see you back on the LFC board soon, keeping us in check!
Best wishes mate. Here’s to you making a full recovery, and them Toffees having a great few seasons in the Championship
Awful news, so sad to hear I’m sure many of us never even realised he was poorly. Thoughts to both Tobes and his Family and thanks brb it couldn’t have been an easy decision to share.
Come on Tobes, you know you can beat this. We need you annoying us on the Saints board next season mate. Thoughts and prayers to Tobes and family.
Thoughts and prayers with @Tobes and family. Doesn’t suffer fools gladly but always has an interesting viewpoint on both footy and real life. I hope he will be back soon. He adds so much to this circus.
Don't know where to start, pal. You're a proper Scouser with the sense of humour that goes along with it. You'd moved away from the city like me, but I know your heart has always been there. We obviously didn't see eye-to-eye on footie, but we shared so many other similar views on life generally. I'm desperately sorry to hear this news, for your sake and for your family and close friends. If anyone can beat whatever it is, you can. You're a stubborn old twat Beat this and get your blue arse back on here soon, la. You're so well-respected. YNWA
....I'm actually quite shocked by this news. I'm not sure why as people are generally older but maybe its the sudden-ness to it. I sit here writing this with a tear in my eye. Take care @Tobes and good luck with your fight. Hope to see you again one day if not here then the next place.
All the very best to you Tobes. Wishing you, and your family best wishes from myself and everyone on the Leeds board.
To all those who say that evey thing posted on here is banter? Utter bollocks.Some people are nasty ****s. Wishing Tobes to a good recovery and happiness. Get well soon mate. Top bloke.
Thoughts and prayers with Tobes and his family. One of the forum's big characters, who adds so much to it. If we don't see him again then hopefully he could spend the time with his family and with little suffering. But we all hope to see him back here.
I can only echo many of the words already said on here. Thoughts are with Tobes, his family and his friends during this time.
Oh man this is sad news. I didn’t realise he was in a bad way. There’s not many on here who haven’t clashed with him over the years, he stands his ground and could argue for days about **** all, but with the dryest sense of humour in most of his words, so his posts are always worth reading. Thanks for sharing brb, I can only echo what the rest of the lads have said.
Tobes is always welcome on our board. Very knowledgeable and good for a discussion, just his footballing choices were lacking. Did wonder why he hasn't been around, sorry to hear.
