Utterly and incomprehensibly tragic. Almost beyond words really how dark this is

 

[SwanseaJack]

2 weeks after his wedding, horrific. Thoughts for his family, friends and children

Awful, awful news. RIP and condolences to his family & Liverpool

Extremely distressing to hear that he'd only got married a couple of weeks ago. A bride so suddenly widowed, his brother died as well. Very, very sad news.

 

[Deleted member 1454]

His brother too. Such a brilliant player as well. His family must be in bits. And his teammates. Not to mention the supporters. Absolutely horrendous news. We've been here with Besian, we know better than most. Thoughts with everyone close to him.

Three young children, just married. His parents have lost two sons in an instant. How can people recover from something like this?

Horrendous. RIP

 

[Cooperman]

Tragic news. Two young lives lost, countless others devastated, and a huge hole in Liverpool football club. RIP.

Shocking. RIP.

We're all tip-toeing along a precipice and taking it for granted we won't fall. Make the most of it while you have it. I need to take my own advice.

Tragic,absolutely tragic.
From most reports it seems they had a blow-out whilst overtaking on a narrow ish road in a high powered car.

I doubt many of you greenhorns will remember but when we played Jamaica in pre-season 2001 as part of the Walter Boyd deal many of the Jamaican fans had banners saying RIP Stephen ‘Shorty’ Malcolm.
Malcolm had been killed a few of months earlier in a car crash.
I was in the manager’s office after the game and I mentioned it too John Hollins.
He said it was tragic and that every pre-season at every club he’d been at he’d be shitting himself over the safety of his players every pre-season and international break because the club had no control over what players got up to.
RIP Jota.
