Petri was a valuable player for the two seasons the Newcastle team existed as the Cobras, and won the Player's Player of the Year award for his troubles. Sadly he was diagnosed with a brain tumour in the season 98/99, and though the original operation was a success, the cancer returned and he passed away on 25th June 1999. Our thoughts are with his family. Anyone wishing to pass on messages of sympathy, contact Jamine Gosling.
