Condolences to the family, we have our banter but in the end we are all a rugby league family . RIP Wire Yed.

It's pretty much all been said so I can only echo previous sentiments. Very sad.

RIP and condolences to family and friends.

Few words that can be said. His input will be sadly missed from the board, it's strange how you take people for granted that you have never even met. RIP Wire Yed, let's hope the boys can give you a fitting send off this weekend mate.

Terrible news RIP

Very sad news. Hope he finds the peace he couldn't reach in life.

Condolences to family and friends.

Wow, what terrible news. Although I never had the pleasure to talk to him personally I always kept an eye out for his posts as he was an intelligent and passionate individual. The world is a worse place for having lost him.

May he rest in peace.

RIP Yed helped me on a few occasions with my trips to the capitol

terrible news..never knew the man but it puts things into perspective.rest in peace fellow..

Totally shocked and saddened, rest in peace someone who loved our game, very very sad

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

i have never met yed but we have had plenty of light hearted banter over the years,so much so that his comments were in my signature for over 5 years,as a mark of respect i have deleted it

RIP Yed i hope you have found peace

Really sad news this. Being a Wire fan from Golborne (I believe) he had a healthy banter with the majority of the posters on the Wigan forum. His contributions on this site will be missed. RIP Wire Yed (Steve).

Never met the guy but always enjoyed reading his posts on RLFANS and very often agreed with a lot of what he said. Seemed like a good bloke and had a lot of respect for him. Desperately sad news.

Hope Wire put on a good show for him today, RIP fella.

Only just seen this. RIP Yed

Enjoyed his contributions here. A very knowledgeable fella always up for some robust discussion.

Thoughts go out to his family and friends.
