Quote from: Navin R Johnson on August 03, 2013, 08:52:24 AMThe difference between the sad cases of famous footballers becoming metally ill and everyday people on the street becoming mentally ill is that there is a much better chance of the well known person having his or her illness spotted early and dealt with. Money comes into it because a person with a lot of money is very rarely isolated. The vast majority of the most abandoned and vulnerable in society have become so as a result of losing a support system - family, friends, colleagues or worse still never having had one. Those are the ones on whom I focus my charitable giving and my support.If you were to say to me that the thread raises the topic of mental illness not vagrancy or alcoholism I would reply that in my own experience and in the cases known to me personally it is chicken and egg. The one brings on the other.With the greatest respect Brian, what a load of complete tosh.

I seem to remember a story that someone went to Curcic's house well into a new year and found that he still had the Christmas decorations up. When asked why, he said that it reminded him of a happier time when his family were with him. I thought then that here was a lad that needed help. I'm told that he rarely left his house when playing for us.
Sasa Curcic is similar player to Stephen Ireland and probably better. Sad news.
