At this precise moment, our team should be walking out onto the pitch to the deafening noise of the Silkmen supporters before hearing the Referee’s first whistle. There will instead, be a pause. No game. No scoreline. Just reflection. Ethan McLeod was not just our teammate, he was a wonderful human being and someone who inspired us all, with the weight of his indescribable loss remaining surreal in the extreme.  Football teaches us how to move tactically, how to react, and how to keep going when faced with adversity for the benefit of everyone associated with the team.  But today, it teaches us something infinitely more important: how to stand still together. Ethan passionately wore our badge with pride. He trained with purpose, played with heart, and carried himself with a quiet strength that didn’t need to be loud to be felt.  Whether it was in the dressing room, on the training pitch, or under the floodlights, Ethan effortlessly gave every ounce of his being for the game he loved and the devoted people around him. At this poignant time, we remember Ethan not only for his undeniable talent, but for the memories he created - so many of which didn’t make the highlights, yet will live in the hearts and minds of all those who loved him so unconditionally forevermore. We remember all the laughter, Ethan’s infectious smile, and the unspoken understanding that binds our entire Club together. Our beloved Club is built on that togetherness and the devastating sense of loss that we all are feeling reminds us just how deep those bonds run. Today, there is no opposition, no points to play for.  What there is an abundance of however, is a deeply held gratitude for having known Ethan, and for having been able to share a short part of his journey with him.  There is heartbreak, and there is love - from teammates, staff, supporters, and everyone whose life Ethan touched so evocatively. Ethan’s story doesn’t end here though. It lives on in the values he embodied, in the wonderful memories he did so much to create, and in the way he made all those around him strive to be the best version of themselves.  In the fullness of time, Ethan’s legacy will help shape who we are and who we become. It will make us stronger and more determined to honour him not just with words, but in everything we do. Because no matter how our journey evolves, Ethan will be right there beside us - guiding us every step of the way. Ethan - we know you’re watching over us now, and will truly never leave us. We will be devoted to you for all eternity. You will forever be a Silkman.

@thesilkmen Rest in peace Ethan❤️

With the heaviest of hearts and an overwhelming sense of surrealism that Macclesfield FC can confirm the passing of 21-year-old forward Ethan McLeod. Travelling back from Bedford Town last night, Ethan was involved in a car accident on the M1 which tragically took his life. Ethan was an incredibly talented and well-respected member of our First Team Squad, who had his whole life ahead of him. But more than that, Ethan’s infectious personality endeared him to everyone that he came into contact with. In giving his all in everything he did, Ethan effortlessly pushed us all to be the best we can be - both on and off the pitch. Ethan’s professionalism and unwavering work ethic inspired everyone, and his lust for life put smiles on all our faces - even on the darkest of days. News of Ethan’s passing has devastated our entire Club and no words can convey the immense sense of sadness and loss that we feel now. The deep mental scars elicited from Ethan’s passing will undeniably never heal - but one thing is for sure, and that is Ethan’s vibrant legacy will never fade, no matter how much time passes in the future. Ethan will live in our hearts and minds forevermore and no matter what the future holds, his unique smile that mesmerised us all will never be forgotten. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Ethan’s family and friends at this deeply traumatic time, together with an assurance that we will provide as much support as we can to those who need it. May you rest in peace Ethan - you will forever be a Silkman.
