R.I.P. Gary, a great footballer and loved by many, he'll be a sad loss to football.

Yeah and to think he took is own life why, only his family will know that.

He was a top player for Leeds and was the start of a great manager for Wales.

Big shock, indeed. Are you sure that he took his own life?? I did not hear anything about that on the news.

Yes, the TV news didn't mention the nature of his death, only to say it was not being treated as suspicious, the Telegraph online however did release the information about the nature of the incident.

Living in Sheffield at the moment, just across the road from Bramall Lane, so managed to get along to the tribute.

Plenty of Sheffield United shirts, scarves and flags and one of my Welsh friends hung his Wales shirt there with "Sleep Tight" in Welsh. i went down an hour ago to hang my newcastle shirt on it. Very moving and a few tears from the people there.

Unfortunately it was too dark to get a picture after I'd been but here's one picture.
