Nick, writing this message is the most difficult thing I have ever had to do yet it is also one of the most rewarding.
You taught all of those around you that if you apply yourself then you can achieve yet this was done with great charm and charisma.
Both as a friend and as a colleague it was clear to see you were gifted both academically and within the sporting arena and you knew not the meaning of second best.
I hope that your family are able to take great warmth from the happiness you brought to others and they are able to move forward with the memories that you brought them.
Your saddenned colleague,
Scott

I am a past chairman of Reading Old Blues Football Club and watch most games on a saturday afternoon. When Nick first joined the club in 2003 I was amazed at the quality of player we had aquired. He would be up on his toes running at the opposition defence weaving in and out leaving many a defender on his backside he also had the rare ability and confidence to produce the spectacular. Many opponents resorted to kicking Nick to stop him or at least to slow him up, a complement in itself. He was however a great team player, always looking to bring other teabmates into the game. Off the field Nick was a charming young man, exceedingly mature for his age and a credit to his family. Nick is someone who Reading Old Blues Football Club are very proud to have had as a member both on and off the pitch. My thoughts are with Nicks Family and his many friends at this very sad time.

What can i say? It's only been six days and already i feel as if there is a huge gap missing in my life. Nick was, to me, the most amazing, talented, beautiful person to have ever been in my life. His smile brightened up my days.
Most people know by now that Nick and I were to go to the Christmas Ball together since we have been getting very close recently. I just know that we would have been together after that as we were both SO excited. Nick made me happier than i have ever been. I can now only imagine our future but i'm sure it would have been fantastic.
I cannot begin to understand why this has happened and am absolutely empty inside. I can only hope now that this just makes us all stronger because no-one will ever forget him and so he will brighten our lives forever.
My thoughts are with everyone who this has affected.
Nick, you know exactly how i feel about you. I miss you so much it hurts and i can't imagine never being able to hug you again. Please stay with me and carry on doing what you love up there.
I cannot wait to see you again because now at least i will always have something to look forward to.
You will be in my thoughts, my life, my heart and my dreams forever.
Love you lots,
Amy xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Nick, I am blessed to have shared the football field with you, and to have shared life with you.

There's one more angel in heaven
There's one more star in the sky
Nick, we will never forget you
It's tough but we're gonna get by
There's one spare seat in our classes
There's one more tear in our eye
Nick, the things that you stood for
Will always stay in our minds

They say that it always happens to the best people, and that really is true. From wat I knew of Nick, he was a genuinly great guy. I kno myself and others will remember him forever. His great legs brought much delight to my days!
Rest In Peace Nick
All my love and thoughts x

I'm a team mate of Nick's at Reading Old Blues and I'm currently travelling around New Zealand. When I heard about the tragic incident I was shocked. There are no words to describe the feelings and my heart goes out to Nicks family and friends. I have only fond memories of Nick. He was superb, a fanatstic footballer with all the ability in the world. I played down the left with him on a few occasions and he certainly made my job easier! He was a tremendous person off the field as well - always smiling and laughing and nothing ever got him down. He will be sorely missed, both as a player and as a friend.
