Retiring at 29 – he has motor neurone disease: remember him doing quite well on loan (under Ince?) – v sad news for him and family.

Bloody hell. Poor bloke, what a nightmare.

Sad for any individual who suffers this horrendous disease, let alone a 29 year old. Gutted for the lad.

Indeed. Puts football in perspective.

Horrible disease - poor guy. He played in the 1-1 draw against City - one of the best days in our recent history.

[forwardmagpie]

Very sad - good look to the lad in his battles ahead

[crazyfists]

Yeah I echo the above sentiments, good luck Stephen.

[JoePass]

Dreadful news for such a young lad. I remember him playing for us and I am sure everyone wishes him the very best.
