He was on a BBC programme just yesterday looking well. I don't know, I don't usually dwell on things like this too much when they happen, but for whatever reason this got to me more.

rumours are that he was supposed to be having an affair and was told the papers will be publishing all the details in the coming weeks. he had a squeaky clean image as the model footballer and perfect family man. only rumours mind, could be total bollocks.

if it's true then i would hold the Papers responsible for his death. whats their problem if the celebrities are having affair like giggs, ashley cole, crouch and rooney etc...

[King Tendulkar]

so why did he commit suicide? Any news on this yet

[VRV Singh]

All of his football friends saying there was no indication. Everyone here found it shocking anyway because he was on Football Focus the afternoon before and was normal. I guess it can become easy to mask depression (not giving credence to these rumours)
