[I am Rod Hull]

Shocked, just shocked..

[Danny the Fox 95]

Shaking about the news. RIP Gary Speed. My thoughts are with your family and friends.

[hornyhollthefox123]

cannot believe it,

[EnderbyFox]

Such sad news, seemed like a genuinely nice guy both on and on the pitch, thoughts with his family and friends

R.I.P

[Mickey O'Neil]

Genuinely shocked by this. R.I.P Gary

[Guest DavidJCW]

That is a massive shock. Surprised and upset by the news. Wales were just starting to turn it around as well... what could possibly have caused him to want to do this?

[Charl91]

His Wikipedia page was edited pretty quickly

[Dan]

I got a text telling me, I couldn't believe it, I didn't think he'd joke about something like that and he wasn't.

You just have to ask yourself why, he was in a great position so it seemed. Really put a downer on the day. R.I.P.

[Bert]

Wow. Can't believe it. I'm very upset by this. Such a lovely bloke.

RIP Gary Speed.

[HEGGSY]

He had everything to live for, managing his country ect just does not make sense

[LufbraBlue]

I watched him on Football Focus yesterday and he seemed very relaxed and composed. And then this. I'm truly shocked.

RIP.

[Charl91]

Maybe it was nothing to do with work. Personal issues perhaps.

[Bilo]

My word, I've just gone cold.

Always seemed to be one of football's nice guys, was a great player and was proving himself to be a pretty special manager too with Wales playing some great stuff.

This is just unbelievably upsetting, what could have happened to the poor bloke?

RIP.

[StanSP]

Goes to show that things must have been extremely bad behind the scenes.

There's rumours that (some) tabloids were going to run a story that would have completely ruined him. That's just speculation though so I will say nothing more on that matter.

Unbelievable.

[Guest shearfox]

Don't see why he would commit suicide, just shocking to hear the news, he was doing such a wonderful job has Wales manager and was very well liked.

[lestajigs]

Gary speed. Hung himself this morning, scary stuff,

Maybe a minute silence Tuesday I should think??

[Simmo86]

Genuinely upset by this, feel sick.

Always seemed a likeable bloke and was doing wonders with Wales.

RIP

[marko]

Shocked. He seemed to be really pleased with Wales' progress and like he was taking them places.

RiP

[LCFC BEAST]

Actually feeling so upset by this.

He always seemed like such a nice person and was a true legend of the game.

RIP Gary, you'll be sorely missed

[Vardinhio]

Rumours that they were going to ruin him??? Come on we don't know anything so let's just wait ti see if anything comes out. Either way as far as I'm concerned he was a top PL player and seemed like a decent manager/pundit in the making so it's a crying shame, gutted for his family.

[GLC]

Such a great prospect, He was doing well with wales.

RIP Gary Speed

[Jackirius]

RIP, great player, great man.

Thoughts with his family.

[isaidno]

Shocking news . RIP

[iancognito]

Why would anyone with a young family, at the start of a promising managerial career after a successful playing career, kill himself? It's just totally shocking.

Amazed they're playing the Swansea Villa game, there's about half a dozen Welsh players involved.

[rico]

Shocking news,great player and seemed to be on his way to becoming a good manager

RIP
