As some of you may know, Jon Mannah, brother of Tim, is currently fighting his second battle with cancer. I believe it was Alfred Mateo who started a blog earlier in the season to hear some suggestions of what we could do with him. I had a banner made for him. I will be in contact with the club later this week to see if we can hand the banner over to the Mannah family at the conclusion of round 26. However, I want to add a real touch of Parra to it. So, over the next 2 home games I'll be bringing some textas with me and asking Parra fans to sign the banner. I'll be next to the Price statue at the Northern End about 1 hour before kickoff. If you want to sign up let me know and I'll post in this blog on game day when I'm there.

Hi mate,
Good blog. I should be going to at least one of the next 2 home games so I'll see you there.
Let's get as many people to sign this banner as possible.
The footy might be crap for us this year, but this kind of thing reminds you that there are more important things in life.
great idea SuperEel
let us know when you will be there so we can sign the banner.
Nice work Supereel, I will be travelling from Newcastle to one of those games. It's such a terrible thing to see people go through, the more support the better. Champion idea mate.
Just the 'sense of community' that has been missing from the club- well done supereel. As I am in newie too and won't get down can you pop on a 'Best wishes- Carloeel' from me. Ta
I'll chuck it on there for you.
you mean "no"
What a great idea and an amazing thing you'll be doing. Could you please update us all on what the parra organisation said and whether the family will be receiving the banner. Can't wait to sign it!
