RIP a proper cult hero in Geordieland, from an age when the Premier League seemed more innocent.

Very sad news. He took Newcastle to heart and we adopted him as a Geordie. RIP

Went to see Sparta Prague in May and he was working there as goalkeeping coach. We were delighted when we recognised him about 6 feet away from us. Really sad news.

It is sad indeed.
Pav and his Newcastle days (1996?) is when I really got into football and was hooked on MOTD every Saturday.

Scary.

I tend to respond to tragedy with humor:

Then, just before we went out onto the pitch, Keegan turned to me and said ‘Pav, why can’t you be more like Schmeichel, and win a game for us?’

Sorry to hear this last night, was hoping he would pull through RIP.

Cardinal Sin

So sad - just published "Pavel is a Geordie" telling his story. The Toon Army sang Pavel is a Geordie on Saturday in the hope a recording might wake him from his coma. RIP Pav.

RIP Was great to watch at times, shame Newcastle struggled to defend at times.
