Gary Speed R.I.P. (Condolence Thread)

A man who seemed to have everything, a wife and kids, a successful football career, a bright managerial future ahead of himself, good looks, wealth, loved by millions. Tragic waste of life and its awful to think what must have been going through his mind in those final few hours.

I must admit I dont follow football as much as some but he was a man who I always had so much appreciation for. It didnt matter that he played for Everton and I was a Liverpool fan. Gary was a player I always admired and wanted to see do well.

I know there is already a thread going in the Soccer forum but I'm sure there is plenty more like me who, not having permission to post in the Soccer forum would like to pay their respects to the Speed family. So mods, if its ok could you please allow us this opportunity to pay tribute to a man who provided to much entertainment and so many memories over the past two decades?

R.I.P. Gary Speed - condolences to your family.
