OMG!! Just can't believe this, may his soul rest in peace.

Has the reason of his death been disclosed.

That's absolutely terrible. RIP.

Is there any foul play suspected?

 

[silentstriker]

He was a good coach in a tough situation. Hopefully it was natural causes and not a suicide attempt as some are reporting.

I heard suicide, not foul play. But nothing confirmed, so likely it is conjecture.

 

[foe]

Nothing being reported about the cause so far

 

[UncleTheOne]

shocking.

rip.

Yea, just this:

"Bob Woolmer, the Pakistan coach, has died in a Kingston hospital after being found unconscious in his hotel room hours after his side's elimination from the World Cup. He was 58." From the cricinfo ball by ball.

RIP BOB, You were heck of a coach and you certainly deserved better.

Very very sad News.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

I cant believe it. Just yesterday i was talking to someone about how Woolmer or Moody would become next England coach. Never in a million years did i ever expect to see this sad news just 24hours later

 

[crickmate]

RIP. Another shocking news after Manjarul Islam Rana.

That's absolutely terrible. RIP.

Is there any foul play suspected?

A lot of the media in England are hinting at self harm but nothing is confirmed.

Like everyone else I hope it's natural causes.

RIP Bob Woolmer a sad end no matter what the circumstances.

I think there is something fishy in all this, but really it has all happened so quickly that i am still in shock.

Me too, I'm scared at what he might have done to himself that night..

Nicholas and Cullinan totally shaken up in this commentary stint.. This reminds me of walking downstairs to watch the Basin reserve test in 2002 without knowing what had happened.. Puts everything into perspective, again..

Bob Woolmer was a great coach.It's a terrible day for cricket.RIP.

 

[quytst0rm]

It was said he had "consumed" poison as there was blood coming out of his mouth. Really sad day. RIP.

 

[pup11]

I think we can certainly count out suicide as a reason for his death since Bob was too strong a character to commit suicide.

 

[cover drive man]

Rip Bob.

Doesn't surprise me that it's suicide of that nature, too much of a coincidence.
