THE New Saints and the whole of Welsh football has been shocked by the news that Wales manager Gary Speed has died at the age of 42.

Speed had been due to appear as a guest in the inaugural "Matchday Legends" pre-match event at The New Saints v Airbus on Friday night, but the engagement was cancelled several weeks ago.
A statement from the FAW says: "We extend our sympathies and condolences to the family. We ask that everyone respects the family's privacy at this very sad time."
Speed took over the Wales job in December 2010, and earlier this month, said the side's rapid improvement had exceeded all expectations.
A 4-1 friendly win over Norway represented a third successive win for Wales, and Speed's fifth in 10 games as manager.
At the time, he said: "We've progressed further than I'd have thought in this space of time but we've still got a lot of work to do."
Speed won 85 caps for his country during a 14-year international career.
He was given the top job in Welsh football despite only having four months managerial experience.
The club would like to extend its sincere condolences to the family.
