Just announced on BBC News 24.

No cause as yet.

Can't believe it - he was on Football Focus only yesterday.

fking hell - just watching Vinnie Jones and Chris Kamara talking about him (and others) from his Leeds days....... they obviously do not have a clue this has happened.

Shocking.

On sky news now, unbeleivable news...

He was pretty much the model professional. A great player and great person, what a tragedy for someone so young to go...

RIP in Gary...

Fantastic player in his day - and was doing an amazing job of turning Wales around on the international stage.

Massive loss to British football.

A gentleman of the game. I was lucky to speak with him a few times while he was with Everton.

A sad loss.
