I was only chatting with Terry and Keith a few weeks ago in the Ben, they were both saying how great life was for both of them since setting up together..... still can't get my head round it, RIP fella you'll be missed.

RIP Terry. Sleep tight x

I think Terry was one of those players who fans would love to have on their own side, and love to hate if he played for the opposition. The news filtering through yesterday must go down as one of the most surreal experiences of my life, particularly as the early rumours that had surfaced had appeared to be have been dispelled as a hoax at one stage, meaning that the awful truth hit twice as hard once it was starting to be confirmed.

Let's hope that some good can come of his dreadful passing and that clubs, players and society in general take a keener interest in mental health and, if anything, better education for players to stay away from drugs and the like that appeared to have had a big effect on this spiral of events.

I'm sure Saturday will be a hugely emotional occasion, and it would be fitting if Wigan won the Grand Final on behalf of the Wigan lad who cried trying.

RIP Terry.

Very good tribute Bilko

well put

Thank You Bilko

I'm absolutely shocked about this.

Thoughts and best wishes to all.

Slightly uncomfortable to watch, you can see Deacs holding back the tears.

You can tell it's really hit him hard. Such a shame.

3 days on and I still cannot get my head around this .

R.I.P Terry Newton .

A great man who will be sorely missed , deepest sympathy for all his family .

RIP Terry.

Desperately sad news, he was Wigan through and through, always enjoyed watching him play. Wore his heart on his sleeve and was obviously a nice guy too.

Thoughts are with his family and friends.

Yeh just watched that very touching deaks was obviously a bit shaken by it

I dont know if this has been said but would be nice if players from both sides warmed up in t-shirts with NEWTON 9 on the back

Deacon will have known terry from a very young age. They was pretty big rivals a at school boy level and played together for wigan school boys.

Deacon played for hindley and newton was at orrel and they was both the two best teams for about 3yrs.

I also played with terry at school boy level for the county.

He was solid as a rock on the pitch even at a young age but always a top lad off it.

Still in shock really, very very sad.

Thats a horrible video and Deacs is obv very very upset and its hit him very hard

"We loved you Newton, you were our number 9"

I'd love to see that on a flag next season.

RIP Tezza you never got the recognition you deserved.

Think things should be left to settle for a while. At some point in the future his family should be approached to see if they would like a flag.
If they are ok with it then I think I'd have it in the present tense.

Wigan's Nº9

Either way i'd be happy to show how much the Wigan fans appreciated Newton's commitment to the cause with a flag. It shows how highly we rated him and putting him up there next to legends like Boston & Faz will keep his name going.

Gone but not forgotten - devastating news and still not sunk in.

RIP Terry, our thoughts are with your family at this sad time.

The Kris Radlinski tribute in the observer has had me bawling my eyes out. But Phil Wilkinson near to the back tells two hilarious stories about Tez's pranks. I am so glad I read them in that order.

There are tributes from players from loads of different clubs,

Even Sean Long!

It doesn't help things when idiots start Facebook groups called "Terry Newton. The man who made Sean Long cry."

Yes I was genuinely surprised when you joined that group, Mike. Shame on you.

Aren't they just.

Someone was telling me that a few Saints 'fans' are planning on disrupting the minutes silence on Saturday. I really hope they don't.
