Re: Gary Speed has died

I just heard, absolutely shocked. He was only on football focus yesterday. He was already proving to be a great manager the way wales were beginning to play. RIP A Genteman and A legend.

Re: Gary Speed has died

Word is doing the rounds that it was suicide - not confirmed yet though.

BBC news has confirmed that it was suicide.
What a waste.

Re: Gary Speed has died

Utterly shocking. Can't believe it. I just didn't register when it came up on my Twitter feed. I thought I must have misunderstood, they can't have meant that Gary Speed, maybe I had mixed up the name with someone else.

42, Doing so well with a young Welsh side. A tragic loss for his players, his country and his family.

As an Arsenal fan it should be said Ramsey did so well with him as his national coach, he made him captain as well.

Re: Gary Speed has died

Typical, we get a manager who actually seems interested in his job and makes real tangible progress and this happens :-(

Re: Gary Speed has died

Sad parallels with Robert Enke. The German goalkeeper who silently battled with depression until his suicide two years ago. It was only this morning I was reading this from Stan Collymore about his battle with depression.

Nice scenes in the Swansea match. The crowd broke the silence for applause and chants of 'One Gary Speed'.
