    I'm absolutely gutted.

    My mate texted me last night about this; I thought he was just pulling my leg. This is terrible news. RIP Darren.

    I wont be able to add anything to this thread that hasn't already been said.

    I never met Darren but I never heard anything bad about him. He seemed to be such a nice, genuine guy and he would have had gone on to a very good career.

    I haven't read all this thread and don't know if any details have emerged as to why Darren felt this was the only option left. Whatever was happening in his life I hope he has now found peace.

    RIP

    He always had a smile on his face and never said a bad word about anyone. Humble honest and always came across well in interviews.

    I logged out of here last night and I forgot all about what I thought at the time were just rumours then I log onto BBC Sport this morning and there I see that Sutherland has died. Very eerie considering when I was at the match on Saturday there were posters of him and Jeffries all over the city advertising the next card. RIP :-(

    Can you believe Maloney walked in to see him and found him hung. That has to **** you up.

    It's another terrible part of this horrifying tragedy. By all accounts Maloney is doing well (he released a statement this morning expressing his condolences) but it must be truly terrible to see something like that in person.

    I'm still hugely shocked over all of this- when I woke up this morning I was hoping it was a dream. He was so immensely talented and came across as a really, really nice person as well. It's tragic. RIP.
