Falling down the stairs I read. Bloody hell

Not yet confirmed by the family to the club. Seems there is only one source for the info. Sad if true.
RIP. An elegant midfielder, with a magical left foot, who ran Championship games for a decade.

That is really bad news if true. Great player, so sad.
Not confirmed anywhere (seems likely though) but sad if true of course. Sucks balls when young people die.
I recall a season where he was just banging it in from every angle and distance, think no other Championship midfielder have scored as many in a season.

So sad. Fantastic goals. Incredible technique.

I wonder whether this is a case of the journo preparing his obit which has prematurely leaked, as rumours seem to be PW fell down the stairs and is in intensive care.

More bloody awful news. Terrific footballer, with wonderful technique, with whom we've crossed swords a number of times. Condolences to the family

The ex-England Under-21 international suffered the injuries after an "accidental" fall in a pub in Barry.
Why is accidental in speech marks - are they suggesting it wasn't an accident?
Hope he recovers.

Good news, sorry for starting the original with false news report

Hopefully he can make a full recovery, he was a great footballer and I remember the days when we on NSC were calling for his signature, or lamenting our failure to sign someone "like Peter Wittingham who is quality"...
Original reports on twitter were that he'd been in a bar fight in Barry.
Clearly, a lot of false rumours have done the rounds - doesn't help Michael Chopra saying he was dead.

Good news, compared to that initially spread.
