Don't think I've been so shocked for a long long time.

My god.
I trust the King, but if we lose a few more on the trot now - he may have to step aside, and we have to purchase another manager in the middle of the season. If we are relegated, this could be the end of our ambitions to win any title the next 100 years.

SSN playing clips of him at the Welsh training ground (earlier this month?) and he just does not look like someone with worries. Absolutely bizarre. RIP

Wow. I'm shocked.

Remember watching Wales a couple of weeks back in the game in which Bellamy scored and the commentators were praising him for doing what he's done with the side.

Was just on Football Focus yesterday, a day before committing suicide. Don't think anyone would've thought this. Wow.

You just never know what pain someone can be going through on the inside. I can't believe he was on FF just yesterday as others mentioned. I'm sure more details will come out but what a terrible tragedy for his close friends and family to deal with. RIP Gary.
