I've just heard on R5 about the sudden death of the Welsh footie manager.:sad:

So tragic . Great footballer and he was taking the Welsh football team to better things.

Very sad news :sad:

Always liked him as a player, was also doing well with the Welsh team

Condolences to his family and friends

Jesus, that is a shock. Only last Wednesday he was on the panel for the Chelsea Champions League match, he seemed settled in the Wales job and was widely regarded as doing a good job.

You can never tell what demons people have to deal with in private, this article from The Secret Footballer in yesterday's Guardian is chillingly topical.

This seems so totally senseless; it's difficult to believe. As a Leeds fan, Gary Speed was always one of my favourites, a model professional and now he seemed to have got Wales on the upward curve again. We never really know what is going on in people's heads - this is so sad. :sad:

terrible news. i had the priviledge of watching the great leeds side of the '90s beat us in a cup tie when he was there. always a model pro and a credit to his sport and country, his type are all too rare.
