Gary Speed RIP.

[QPRDave]

F**k me just got back from shopping I'm absolutely shocked, saw him on football focus only yesterday, terrible tragedy.
Thoughts go to his family RIP Gary.

[QPRDave]

Hung himself. He had Wales on the up.

What could have made him do that.

My thoughts too seemed to have everything going well for him

[DeepcutHoop]

Terribly sad, thoughts with his wife and kids....

Stan Collymore took some abuse yeterday on Twitter for talking about his depression, this puts the subject into stark focus.

Dreadful news and as others have said was starting to turn things around with the Welsh National team

Condolences to his family and friends

[Rieger]

This is madness. What was going on in his life to drive him to that? So sad. Looked the makings of a great manager.

[hemelhoop]

Great player. RIP

[themodfather]

RIP..sad news
42 is too young
he was a good player and wales were improving as a team...
condolences to his family, as yet no cause, found at home...

Sad news. Maybe not suicide - remember Michael Hutchence?

By believe that happy people do things like this? As I said, it's easy to speculate, but there was clearly something in this.

R.I.P, Gary. No more demons x

I don't think anyone is expecting you to believe that happy people do things like this.

I think the point is that there's no need to assume that there's "clearly something in this" or that "something is about to come out". He may have been bipolar or suffering from a multitude of mental illnesses that have driven him to take such a tragic action.

RIP Gary Speed.

By saying something will come out, that's what I mean. Doesn't necessarily have to be a cheating wife, or abused childhood, if that's what you mean? I've not exactly speculated anything. You've just given an example of speculation, mate.

Either way, there must be something. Ilness, past...anything. As I say, mine is hardly speculation.

Besides, I'm not getting into a debate over a man taking his life. It's uneccesary.

Sad to hear this terrible news. Really feel for his family and friends. May he Rest in Peace.

Was a great footballer and manager. Why would he do this to himself?
