Jacko diagnosed with Cancer

[Jantje]

Just on Radio L**ds, Peter Jackson has been diagnosed as having Throat Cancer.

Good Luck in fighting it Jacko!!!!

[Kop Kred]

It's terrible news...

I wish him a speedy and full recovery.

[BaselBantam]

For all the banter (and abuse) he's received from City fans over the years, he's still one of us.

Good luck Jacko.

[cartmanbantam]

Yep, good luck. Wouldn't wish it any decent human being, of which he is definately one. Like he says, he's a strong man, sure he'll be well again soon.

That's bad news for the bloke, I wish him all the best for a speedy recovery.

[panther]

Yes, thats awful news, I hope he makes a speedy recovery..

[Herr Doktor]

As Carty said, wouldn't wish it on anyone. All the best Jacko.

[Macca Ha Ha Ha]

I'll echo all the above - was a great captain for us in his younger days.

[Stuttgart Bundesbantam]

I was shocked when I read it, and I too wish him a speedy and full recovery. One of City's outstanding players.

Isnt he at Lincoln???

Didnt Keith Alexander get the big C there too ...

Sod taking that job..

[king billy]

One of my heroes, a city legend in his first stint, great young captain - hope he recovers from it ok.....

His management relies on him shouting and balling - i always cringed hearing him bellowing, always sounded like he had a sore throat too - altho i'm sure its not related......gonna struggle to manage not being able to shout for a while!!

[Parrot]

Gutted for the guy :(

When he got the Lincoln job he was on Soccer night and me and our lass commented on his sore throat, didn't sound too good then!

Hope you get well soon Jacko tup:

[madridbantam]

Here's wishing him all the best and a speedy recovery.

[emj]

I've always admired the guy. I wouldnt have minded him being the city gaffer, despite the fall out between the fans and him.
Take care and good luck, jacko.

I watched that too, his throat did sound bad, but he was shouting constantly! No idea if it's related.

good luck to the guy but really do you think hes going to read this site ?

do you really think it matters if he doesn't??:(

Brian Clough
George Best

Both got tributes on here but did it matter if their families read them?

Things like this are for us to openly comment on situations affecting football heroes whether they be our own or not.... and it helps clear the soul.

Anyway... he's ex-City and a bradford lad so maybe he does!!

Great backing from Stuart, the spirit in that side of '85 was amazing

[ChuckleBantam]

He's a City Legend. End of!

I am gutted by this apalling news and wish him a full and hopefully speedy recovery. I look forward to seeing him back in the game shortly.

Get well soon Jacko!!
