April 10, 2024 – After losing the “adrenaline” of playing the sport at the highest level, he told the Ben Heath Podcast that problems became “huge” and he turned to drugs for “escapism”. “How do I deal with problems when I haven’t got football?
“You’ve got the joy and adrenaline to keep you forward-thinking and energetic,” he said.
The ex-pro added: “When you’ve got issues, without football these issues become huge, they’re like mountains.
“When you were playing they were fine, because you had finances coming in, you also had support from everyone and anyone.”
He said that while he did not become an alcoholic, he had a bad year with drugs. I had a spell on cocaine and smoking some weed, and the drink … I could live without it,” he said.
