The sad news broke this morning that former Newcastle United midfielder Gary Speed was found hanged at his home in Chester.

I am utterly shocked at the suicide of the 42-year-old who played for Newcastle more than 200 times between 1998 and 2004.

    Everton, you still don’t get it. Simply put, this is not the time or place to be throwing out stuff about Gary’s family. And it is stating the obvious that anyone who does what he felt sadly driven to do has been pushed “over the edge”. Sensitivity doesn’t seem to be your strongpoint.
