It would be nice to think the club would buy, and keep, them for display. But I know it won't happen.

[Gareth]

Be very sad if a collection like that doesn’t end up in the club archives/museum…but I would have very little faith Mr bottom line will see it that way

[nick harper]

According to the mail Gary insisted the collection was kept together even though they would likely go for more if sold individually, the suggestion being the club might buy them.

[VillaTim]

Think he sold his medals a few years ago and these are now being resold by whoever bought them

[sid1964]

Just read the coroners report for Gary, so sad and an awfully sad way for a life to end.

[eamonn]

Yeah, tragic end, God love him.

His Medals sold for £39.500.
Hope it was the club that brought them.

That's a lot less than the estimate.

It's such a terrible shame. He was way too young.

Actually, the medals didn't sell. There was a bid at £39.5k, but that was below the reserve.
