rosa Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 God that's awful. The 'secret footballer' column in the Guardian yesterday was talking about depression, and how you can't underestimate the pressure people in football are under and the effect it has on some people. I can't imagine what his family must be going through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 God that's awful. The 'secret footballer' column in the Guardian yesterday was talking about depression, and how you can't underestimate the pressure people in football are under and the effect it has on some people. I can't imagine what his family must be going through. Extract from that column: On many occasions, I have seen players affected by what somebody has said about them on a message board or in a newspaper. Even if there are 99 positive comments, they will put all their efforts into searching for the one negative remark and, subsequently, put all their energy into worrying about it.
