Yorkie Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 It's a measure of the man, seeing how many people have referred to him as "best mate", or similar. Still just makes absolutely no sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

maybe_next_year Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 The Shearer interview is a really tough listen. just listened to it now and it definatly is, the bits about Alan's wife being upset and how gary's dad followed him everywhere and were really close especially. As much as it hurts us as fans, you can't help but feel for his family and friends moreso, can't begin to imagine what their going through right now.

PENKAAA Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I absolutely lost it watching his goal against Sheffiled United when he was young. "Go on Gary Speed, get one yourself son..." :'( 'Go On Gary Speed, Get One Yourself Lad' on youtube. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Still struggling to believe he's no longer with us. Seems almost inconceivable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonCanuck Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Alan Shearer says he is still numb and in shock over the sudden death of his friend and former Newcastle United team-mate Gary Speed. In an emotional interview on BBC Radio 5 live Shearer said: "This just doesn't happen to one of your best mates. "I was with him on Saturday afternoon arranging next weekend. He was coming up with his wife to stay at my house. "I left the studio, shook his hand and said 'see you next weekend'. Unfortunately I won't. "[On Saturday] he was happy, joking, we were having the normal mickey taking that we do out of each other and having a laugh and joke about golf trips and holidays that we went on together last year.

Optimistic Nut Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 "When I arrived at Newcastle, him and Dietmar Hamann always looked out for me on the pitch. If they saw certain defenders looking like they were out to get me, they'd make a series of tackles that would make them understand they were supporting me. It's an image that will stay in my head. The solidarity that emanated from the man." - Louis Saha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Can't believe this, still. A man I had so much respect for. People like Speed and, of course, Sir Bobby are not too common. What a terribly handsome man as well. Will miss him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 What would people say the iconic Speed moment was at NUFC? For me it was the critical goal v PSV at home in the UEFA Cup Quarter Final. I didnt realise until today that it was actually his last goal for us. Great two legged tie, the second half of the second leg attacking the Gallowgate with bubbling atmosphere. Really thought we were going to win it, after that game.
