RIP Terry

sad sad news....

RIP Terry

I hope they do, but I can't help thinking a few idiots will try to ruin it unfortunately.

Tragic news, my thoughts are with his family and friends x

How awful for him and his family.
He must have been a very troubled soul; no-one deserves his fate.

R.I.P. Terry

Very sad and shocking news, he made mistakes as EVERYONE does but didn't deserve to go out like this

R.I.P Terry Newton. Not a way for a star to go out and must be very bad for his family

Condolences to those he has left behind

RIP

Very sad news indeed and let's hope the RL community get behind his family and friends.
RIP Terry.

R.I.P. Terry.

Seeing as it's the Grand Final next week, there will probably be a minutes silence for him.

Regardless of your feelings for Terry on the pitch, I'd urge ALL Saints fans to respect the Minutes Silence remembering that you are at Old Trafford representing our club, and with due respect to his family.

well the idiotic pop side got their wish. Whats the betting no one on here owns up to singing it.

RIP Terry

I think it is too risky to do a mins silence. I'd go for a mins applause to drown out idiots.

First things first - my heartfelt condolences to all of his immediate family and friends. The tragic circumstances of this incident go wider than rugby. Terry RIP

But can I offer the viewpoint (and if I am completely out of step with the rest of the RL fans then I apologize for any hurt this may cause) that at the showpiece event of Rugby League in this country we should not be seen to be honouring a man who is currently banned from the sport due to willingly taking illegal drugs that , by his own admission, he was taking because he thought they were undetectable not because he made a mistake or had been taking them unbeknownst to himself.

Now with this being the very last domestic game it does put clubs in an awkward position. And I would fully endorse and encourage a minutes silence being held at the grounds where he has played for the teams Leeds, Wigan, Bradford, Wakefield at their next home games as that is a more personal show of respect. But, as is the case now, if a past player dies then it is very rare that this respectful showing is actually held away from the clubs he has played for.

If the RFL do decide to hold this silence on Saturday then I hope that everyone does respect it - but I have a horrible feeling that with the ill feeling some sections of the Saints support have towards the man then this could end up looking very bad - I hope I am massively wrong.

Thank you for your respect. He must have been a troubled man.

His family must be devastated.

I hope they don't have a minutes silence because I'm sure somebody will disrespect it, then somebody else will have their opinion and we all know where it will lead to from there.

Again many thanks for your comments, it's quite humbling.
