Just because you’re wealthy and are in the public eye doesn’t mitigate the risk of depression; it’s an illness which is very real. Fair play Waggers for speaking out, top player and good man!Help it there for everyone if they just reach out 👍🐑🐑

Great article. Could you have a word with your colleague
@oliverbrown_tel
about his pieces, he could of easily talked about the bigger issue regarding betting but he chose to do the easy story about Rooney.

Fair play for speaking out. If it helps just one person it will have been worth it. Glad you're happier now. Welcome back at Ibrox anytime.

Fascinating interview, as someone who is recently coming to terms with my own Mental Health issues the piece was really inspiring. As
@dcfcofficial
season ticket holder I'm looking forward to seeing you boss it this season
