    Yeovil Captain RIP. Not one of 'ours' but very sad to see someone so young pass away (as for anyone) and be part of the football family. Life's too short eh ?

    Sad news. He played against us in the 2013 play off final.

    Mental health awareness in football still has a long way to go. Footballers coming towards the end of their careers, plagued by injuries, need more support.

    Confirmed death by hanging.

    As I said above, more needs to be done for players at the end of their careers, at an age where men are most likely to take their own life.

    agree Frank, terrible news. I would hope the PFA is all over this and looking at what they can do.
