Words cannot express how deeply sorry I was to read of your diagnosis earlier this evening. My thoughts and prayers will of course be with you and your famiiy at this time as you proceed along your road to recovery.

In our memories of you in your playing days, we remember not only your skill as a player, but also your fearless determination, bravery, tenacity and endurance, qualities which rightly earned you the deep respect and admiration of teammates, fellow professionals and football fans nationwide. No doubt you will also approach your treatment by displaying these same cbaracteristics which, along with the support of your friends and family, will aid you greatly in beating this illness.

May you continue to remain hopeful, positive and focused, knowing that you will always be in our hearts and minds.

One of the great Palace captains in my 43 years as a fan.Would have won many more England caps but for that bl@@dy programme taking the P*ss for the miss against France.Never on a losing side for England.Fantastic box to box player.Must have been a nightmare to play against.I will never forget the brave header against Everton in the ZDS Final,the volley at Elland Road with his RIGHT foot, or him standing on a table in the Glaziers after we beat Blackburn in the play off final and leading the fans in a chorus of 'One Geoff Thomas'.Most of all though is the fact he is a top man.I met him a few times in the Players lounge, a true gentleman and he always had time for everyone.He's used to battling many bad injuries and always won and it will be no different this time because he's a battler.
All the very best to you Geoff, we are ALL, thinking of you

I'M PALACE TILL I DIE..WHOEVERS THE BL@@DY MANAGER

Probably none. I checked the Wolve's and Crew (official) websites last night and they both have a "get well" piece, I then cheked the Palace website and there was nothing what so ever. I e-mailed them if they were going to cover it and have not yet got a reply. If they can't do a simple get well soon I doubt they will do anyhting else.

This club has had some great moments.

Ready for some more?

you should'nt have to much a problem beating this one Geoff,
all the best and come down to palace for a beer when your better........

There's never a country in the world with the scent of an ENGLISH rose.....

Geoff,
you are a true Palace Legend in the Jim Cannon mould. I remember when we signed you and Neil Redfearn and your quality and determination were obvious from the start.
I saw a lot of those games in the early 90's and you were definitely a firm crowd favourite.

I wish you all the very best in defeating this illness as quickly as possible. Remember there are another 30,000+ of us all thinking of you at this time.

Get Well Soon Geoff.

You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.

As with many other people on this and other sites I was shocked when I heard this news.

Geoff was part of the team which inspired me to start supporting the Palace. He was and to this day remains on my of my favorite Palace players.

My heart goes out to him and his family during this difficult time.

Get well soon Geoff
