What a shame. 47 is no age to go.

RIP, very sad that he didn't make it.

Holy shit! Genuinely shocked!

RIP

 

[Metalhead]

Very sad about this. He will certainly be remembered as part of a very decent Newcastle side.

Sad news. RIP Pavel.

Sad news. I thought him and that mid 90s Newcastle side were quite fun and it's a pity they didn't get a title win back then.

 

[mpickard2087]

One of those classic mid 90's PL footballers, when foreign players were still a bit of a rarity (especially compared to the present day) and just seemed a bit more 'exotic'. Very sad news, far too young.

RIP, great guy, had a goalkeeping school here for few years, great inspiration for local kids with his career

With his mullet he always looked like he should be in the Liverpool team.

Rip Pavel

Was a really showy keeper. Nuts for it all end so suddenly so young. RIP.
