    Part of the team that set Stevenage off on their incredible run of the last few years.

    Real shame. RIP.

    So sad. He finally hung his boots up after seeing Fabrice Muamba collapse on the pitch last year. Knew there was a 1% chance of dying every day & that playing quadrupled that. Awful for a seemingly strong man to live with that knowledge. Thoughts with his family, RIP.

  • Shit, really is! Rest in peace man
  • What a sad story. It does make you wonder how this could happen to a fit young man with a previously diagnosed heart condition, if indeed his death was related to his cardiac defect. He would seem to have been the perfect candidate for a heart transplant if there was no other alternative to cure his condition. Too late now, RIP
