Very shocking news – awful for his family and friends. And one can only imagine the state he must have been in himself if the reports of suicide are correct.

I'm listening to Radio 5 at the moment, and there are tributes from many people who have spoken to Gary recently and said he was so happy and looking forward to the future. He was on Football Focus only yesterday lunchtime. It's so sad.
In just over a year three of my sporting heroes have gone, Gary Speed, Terry Newton and Dean Richards.

When I first heard the news I have to admit that thought crossed my mind. |

So sad to hear this news. Being an LUFC fan I've been an admirer of Gary for many years. It's hard to imagine a place so dark no light can shine. RIP.

I don't think it's really fair to discuss the reason until its officially revealed.
He seemed so bright yesterday. Very strange but appallingly sad.

Anyone on my facebook knows my distain for the gutter press and this is typical how the papers have been getting away with this for far too long. hopefully there will be more paper get whacked sooner than later.
Either way, mental health issues, clearly anyone who says "he was ok yesterday on TV" doesn't understand depression, it's quite easy for a person to cover up this for years even amongst people close to them, even maybe they don't know they have it.
Maybe if the soccer community had a stateofmind like RL does he could have sought help, but alas with the way the papers are into everything unchecked and unpoliced I fear he felt cornered. (if the news story report is true). |
