He played very well against us two weeks ago - I'm stunned, he was a good pro.

Can you imagine, it'd be like Simon Clist dying suddenly. I couldn't imagine that. Seems a bit unreal. Dreadful.

Very sad news. He died in his sleep.That must of been a terrible shock for his wife waking up in the morning.

Awful for the Macc Town fans. To have their manager and then their player pass away in less than twelve months is completely unheard of.
My sympathies to his family and friends.

Word cannot express how any genuine supporter feels about this. For some reason this seems to happen a lot to young players..simply dreadful

Very sad news. He died in his sleep.That must of been a terrible shock for his wife waking up in the morning. His wife was n't there - she was away apparently. Butcher failed to report for training and the manager, Gary Simpson was immediately concerned as Butcher was a model pro and never late for training.

RIP. Hard to think he was only playing against a few weeks ago.

Yes - football takes a back seat at times like this - I am sure the condolences of all fans, whoever they support, go out to his family.

What gets me is today and yesterday it hardly got air time or a piece in shy paper. Instead both are filled with beckham this and Beckham that...
Sums up modern day football
