Carver Reaction say it all it was a dark week and it turned out it was dark day for us...

 

Means nowt in comparison.

 

A dark day for us is piss in the wind when you think of footballs loss.

 

Shankly was wrong.

As someone who has suffered from depression first hand i realise the depths to which it can take people. however something doesn't quite sit right with me. Gary always seemed a level headed, intelligent, family man and if as it appears he had planned his death, why did he hang himself. This to me would be one of the most horrific ways to find a loved one. So if for his own reasons he decided to end whatever pain he was going through, why would he subject his a loved one to, in my mind, a horrific scene.

 

Regardless of the above, due to my own personal issues, this has hit me more than any death outside of my close friends and family. RIP Gary, you will forever remain a legend in my eyes, i hope that whatever troubled you in life you are now at peace.

Been composed until now and yes I have been drinking but I am in tears.

 

Never ever thought I would be this way over someone who I didn't know on a personal level.

 

RIP. Gary Speed.

 

Just think how bad it must be for his family and close friends.

 

His parents will never have expected to lose him and his kids will not have considered that they could lose him so soon either.  You don't expect to lose your Dad when you're 13 or 14 for any reason.

It hangs heavy on the soul for some reason,

 

seen my Uncle today after the match who's the same age and you get a slight understanding of the pain his family must be going through,

Something's seriously wrong, like. None of it makes any sense.

Yep, something big must have happened. For the sake of his family, lets hope it stays a secret.

 

Call me selfish but I'd like to know what's gone on. In fact, I need to know what's gone on. Millions have been affected by this, and as Martin Luther said, 'peace if possible, truth at all costs'.

Think I would like to know too. Feel it has affected me quite a lot and personally whatever the reason is, think it won't diminish how highly I regarded the man. Footballing heroes are rarely lost from the minds of those who love them.

i dont know, personally when i went through a really bad patch, when i considered suicide i thought it would be a relief to my family, so maybe he was like me and thought he was doing them a favour by taking his own life, not causing them distress by leaving his body for them to find.  depression can take you to strange places... not that we know thats what it was.

I noticed Big Al was missing from the Match of the Day studio, and from the line-up of football people who paid tribute to Gary in a montage before Sky's coverage of the Chelsea game.

 

I wonder if he's taken it really badly, and has had to take himself away for a while.
