Really sad news, thoughts and best wishes to his family and friends

I worry about his children the most, maybe that's because I know how young children can react to the death of a parent.
Condolences to his family, I hope they're okay. Knowing cancer, they would have had a few days to say goodbye, which is something to be thankful for. Still doesn't ease the pain though.

What a terrible shock this is, a true legend and a 100% City player, he will be sorely missed both on and off the field.

My thoughts go to his wife and family at this desperately sad time.

I' m genuinely shocked and deeply upset. I had no idea things were so bad. Very very sad and I at least will have a chance to show my respects at the Dagenham game where there will inevitably be a minute's silence.

Thanks for the memories Adam!

Just seen this awful news. Also had no idea that things were as serious as this. So tragic that the world has lost such a genuinely nice guy and young father. We are all thinking of your family at this time Adam. Deepest sympathy. RIP mate.

Am utterly gobsmacked at this truly shocking and terrible news. My heart goes out to his family. They have their own personal experiences of Adam, but I hope they can continue to draw pride from the commitment and dedication he managed to display as a professional footballer. He was exemplary and always gave 100%.
