Please Like & Favourite in memory of Gary Speed, never forgotten.
Episode #5 is a fitting tribute to Gary Speed in his last spell in top flight football with Bolton Wanderers scoring 14 Goals from 2004 till 2007 as a long career with big clubs winds down to a close.

Here is short biography of Gary i wrote,

Gary started his career with Leeds United in 1988 when he left school to become a trainee, only weeks later, Leeds signed Gary up as a professional at the age of 19 scoring 57 Goals in 312 appearances. He then left to join Everton in 1996 for a fee of £3.5m. With Everton, Speed scored 17 Goals in 65 appearances with his debut goal against Newcastle who he would sign for next. With Kenny Dalglish as the magpie's manager, Newcastle United quickly signed up speed in good goalscoring form in 1998 for £5.5m where he probably had the highlight of his career playing in the Champions League in the 2002/03 season, scoring in the groupstage against Dinamo Kiev. Gary went on to score 40 Goals in 284 appearances for the magpies. In 2004, Gary moved to Bolton on a 2 year contract for £750,000 and became the first ever player to make 500 premier league appearances in 2006. Overall he scored 14 Goals in 139 appearances (all of which you can see if you're reading this). As Gary's playing career comes to a close, he was a target for many championship clubs. One of which signed him, Sheffield United. In 2008, the blades signed him for £250,000 and was in the starting 11 against Wolves on the day of his transfer. Speed scored 6 Goals in 40 appearances, and at the age of 40, decided to take on the managerial role at Sheffield United for 1 year.

Gary also played at international level for Wales, scoring 7 Goals in 85 appearances for the country. As a manager of Wales, who were in a downward slump at the time Gary took over, he managed to bring success to a team who needed it, winning the last 3 games in a row, something that was unheard of in Welsh tradition.

Gary was found hanging dead on the 27th November 2011 after only appearing on Football Focus the day earlier (26th November 2011). It was thought that he's commited suicide, nobody knows why. Speed's death was announced to the public by the Football Association of Wales. Cheshire Constabulary stated that they were not treating Speed's death as suspicious.

Nottingham Forest vs Leeds 0-4, chants of Gary Speed's name could be heard for miles by the fans.

Rest In Peace Gary Speed.
