Katy Posted 27 January 2007 Posted 27 January 2007 Was actually planning to go to this game so ill be there (all being well and all that)
lcfcalan Posted 27 January 2007 Posted 27 January 2007 Yes Birdy , Myself and Mark will no doubt be there. The legend of the 'Switch ' should go on . I hope many people will attend .
stez Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 great idea birdy. i'm not great with words so it's the perfect way to pay my respects
Dr The Singh Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 We'll be there. I shall be there also!!! I still can't get over the fact he's gone, i'm hoping someone tell's me it's all a sick joke!!
Guest Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 I shall be there also!!! I still can't get over the fact he's gone, i'm hoping someone tell's me it's all a sick joke!! I think we all do.
Dr The Singh Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 I think we all do. I'm not usually an emotional type of guy but I feel really down, he was a father and a husband like myself, and I can only imagine what they must be going through, it's a great tragedy, all this emotion for a guy I never actually physically met but talked about many things I would never talk to other people. It shows that friendship's can be made in many ways!!
Rincewind Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 I may be working that night but I will raise a glass to him with a before work drink. I'm not sure if I ever met Janx but from what I've read in his posts I'm sure he would appreciate the booze up in his name. Through the sadness and tears raise a smile and give a verse or two of When You're Smiling.for him.
bigneville Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 I reckon i might show my face even though i dont know what half of you look like....
Rincewind Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 We're the pissed up ugly bunch. make that the Pissed Ugly Bunch Extremists Society or PUBES and it would be closer.
Tomassi Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 Even though i dont post on here much nowadays, i still remember the legend that is Janx! We even shared the same birthday! Such a lovely bubbly guy who knew how to live life and i will certainly attend. Rest In Peace
Manwell Pablo Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 Will be there. As will I, still trying to think of something suitable to post in the other thread. Shocking news.
Guest Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 As will I, still trying to think of something suitable to post in the other thread. Shocking news. If someone's already said it, quote them. I won't delete it.
Deathside Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 I'm sure I'll be there - although right this minute I really don't feel like it - Still shocked
Manwell Pablo Posted 28 January 2007 Posted 28 January 2007 If someone's already said it, quote them. I won't delete it. Thats the problem, what other people have said doesn't seem like enough. Thats not a shot at all of you it's just that words on forum will never do the bloke justice. Even now I've started this paragraph three times, stopped and deleted it. It's odd, I've never met him and feels strange to feel as gutted as I do about someone I've never met in person, but he was a real charchter, a credit to this forum, a credit to Leicester City, and his family. I've just spent five minutes looking at monitor trying to find the words and they're not coming. Shocked and gutted.

I've just spent five minutes looking at monitor trying to find the words and they're not coming. Shocked and gutted. In a way mate, that stands as it's own testimonial. I think if we were all true to ourselves, no one really could find the words. Janx simply was a great man and I, for one, am gutted that he's gone. We all though feel most for his family.... and just let our thoughts be with them right now. There are no words Manwell... don't force it, but we know. We know the way you feel.
Robsdee Posted 29 January 2007 Posted 29 January 2007 Rob and I will be there. I have no words to express how this has made us both feel. A top man, great fun to be with, we have some great memories.
Katy Posted 29 January 2007 Posted 29 January 2007 I guess whether you knew Janx personally or via exchanging views on here, everyone is going to have been touched by this. He was a young man, with a family - one minute he was posting on here and the next.... it does make you think about your own mortality and how this could quite easily have happened to any of us. Personally, Janx wasn't that much older than me and had a child a similar age to mine, there but for the grace of God and all that. It's so unbelievably sad, I hope there will be a lot of people out after the Cov game to raise a glass in his memory.
Rincewind Posted 29 January 2007 Posted 29 January 2007 After seeing all the tribute posts and quotes I am feeling a little guilty about not attending. Maybe a special tribute night could be arranged with his family's permission of course. That is, hire a room for the night. Free ones are available. Then people could get up to pay personal tribute either in their own words or by quoting Janx's as it has been done on here. This would be different to the piss-up tribute as it would be more private. I attended something similar a few years back for a poet/tutor. If my work situation, which is a bit shitty at the mo, changes I may be there.
