O/T RIP Gary Speed

Post by mattreddan »

Wales national team manager and premier league legend Gary Speed has been found dead, apparently suicide by hanging.

Absolutely shocked.

RIP

You might be right, but we don't actually know what the cause is yet - only that he has died, and we are being asked to respect his family's privacy... so let's not speculate, or give way to it.

Nonetheless, as you say, may he rest in peace (and rise in glory).

Well we do at least know it's suicide, or at least that is what is being reported throughout the media. I have my own views on that but nonetheless it's terrible that this has happened. The main question has got to be why? He was doing a fantastic job as Wales boss and I watched him on Football Focus yesterday and you'd never have guessed this was going to happen.

I was shocked when I heard after seeing him on football focus yesterday. A top professional with a long and successful premier league career.
