I cannot believe this!!!! Totally shocked!!! Faded after a few years, but was absolutely immense for a good few years, and DAT GOAL vs Arsenal. Damn....
I really hope we as a fan base and as a club pull together to do something for his family and/or in his name for his favourite charity back in the Ivory Coast. Dunno what... I feel as though something needs to be done. Maybe a benefit game or something.
"When you're facing a rout and he's 30 yards out, Cheik Tiote" Hope no one thinks that's inappropriate. It's just one of my all time favorite lyrics about one of everyone's favorite games. He always seemed indestructible.
Shocked and saddened. Such tragic news. RIP Tiote, thanks for the memories and for providing us with many fun threads on here.
Nah - think it's a great way to help remember him - great player, just a shame he lost a lot to injury etc He was 16 years younger than me FFS
Just seen this. Absolutely shell-shocked. One of the best destructive midfielders I have ever seen on his day. He will always have a very special place in our hearts. I echo Albert's call in hoping we do something as a mark of respect that will do some good in his name.
Odd comfort in knowing THAT GOAL will live on in history forever. Some legacy that lad. Proud he donned the NUFC shirt RIP
Absolutely horrific news. A young man cut down in his prime. Sleep well friend, and thanks for the memories.
