Even knowing it is okay to open up and even knowing there are people who will willingly listen and want to help you doesn't make it easy to actually go through with talking about the troubles of the mind. Yed and I spoke about that on here once. Even the thought of actually speaking about your thoughts can be troubling to someone that doesn't come naturally to and actually adds to the problem, sometimes it is just easier to be the strong silent type. This has really hit home with me though - actually opening up is essential. Another time and place to discuss that I suppose, hope I haven't been disrespectful with what I posted here with it being the type of thread it is for Yed.

Really gutted to hear this though, such a shame for the lad and his closest people

Only just seen thread, tragic news, condolences to his family.

Sad sad news RIP Wireyed

I along with Cat attended Steve's funeral today.

Such a very sad occasion given how young Steve was and the manner of his passing. The funeral was very well attended and there was many people wearing the Primrose and Blue. It was also good to see our brothers and sisters from Saints, Wigan and Leigh all wearing their teams jerseys. Steve's Coffin was carried by people wearing both Wire & Wigan shirts.

For those who didn't know Steve he truly was one of Lifes good Guys. He always had a friendly word to say to people at the match and always had a smile on his face. Steve loved the Wire absolutely loved them.

as a mark of respect has anyone got a photo of wire yed that they could share on here?

i would certainly love to be able to put a face to all of the friendly banter that we had over the years
