Not sure if it's been mentioned on here but Jordan cousins gets a mention in the piece in sky sports. Mentions his mum was diagnosed with cancer and they helped him through it. Good to hear she's in remission and just goes to show alongside the Ben Alnwick situation with his family that when things are put in perspective, football results mean little.

It matters not how much money you earn or how life takes you, it can grab you and give you a kick in the nadgers at any time.
Every job, way of life has its ups and downs. People just find it hard to understand there might be a depressed person behind the footballer that appears to live a dream lifestyle.
That probably makes things more difficult for the player himself, out of fear that he might get minimum support, sympathy. Man's game etc. Thing about that is that depression in men is on the rise anyway. I for one know that.
Clarke Carsile is probably always on the other end of the line for those guys considering his experiences and understanding.
