@davidhaye the only person on I'm a Celeb who has disgraced themselves is you! Your vile "options" lack of morals and the way you present yourself are nothing short of despicable.
You can't use a broken toe to make people feel sorry for you this time. You should be ashamed.
@ChrisEubankJr Just beautiful. I remember the first moment i saw my son and the nurse handed him over. He's 18months now and they have honestly been the greatest and also most challenging 18months. So rewarding honestly you'll love every second.
Congratulations
@Keir_Starmer what is "dangerous and utterly irresponsible" is you and every other government doing anything other than ensuring ALL this counties services are paid what they're WORTH. Not pushing back because a few of them finally found a voice!
Suicide.
I'm choosing to be deliberately blunt and provocative in this post because it's necessary. Government, charities, football clubs are all pushing water up a hill in highlighting what is undoubtedly a major health crisis.
You take a rope.
You put it up in a garage or a tree nearby or far away.
You're thinking about every loved one you'll leave behind as you put that rope around your neck.
Then you drop.
Some are decapitated.
Some aren't.
All are found by someone who has a lifetime of trauma that will never leave them.
A son.
A daughter.
A brother.
A sister.
A mother.
A father.
I know 2 men who hung themselves.
One was found by his Mom.
One was found by his brother.
Neither have recovered fully. 20 and 30 years on.
A life sentence for people who were already worrying, terrified their loved one may do something.
So just visualise the above and ask, "is there another way"?
A segway for a moment.
I do a few Q&A's every year. Tales of yesterday with a 99% male audience of my age group.
After the stories and fun, my last question back to the audience is..
"Hands up if you struggle with a mental health issue".
Nobody ever puts a hand up. Despite 1 in every 3 of 500 attendees statistically struggling.
"Ah, nobody, that's fucking brilliant! Well I do! ". I then graphically tell people, stunned into silence about how a rope around my neck in the middle of nowhere jolted me to go home and cry like a baby to my Mom.
After the Q&A has finished, something always happens. I'll be chatting to a few guys, saying bye and one by one, men will come over and whisper " I struggle".
Or my mailbox the next day will have 30 emails from guys, their partners or kids saying " Dad/Uncle /Brother was there last night and what you said hit them hard".
And that's how some people realise that it's time to speak to a pal or family member or even rant to me in an email. It works, I often get a follow up email a year or 6 later saying that they took responsibility for their suicidal feelings and are now flying.
Humans are programmed to want to live, to have families and to keep the species growing and thriving. So for a human to want to short circuit that desire isn't normal, and it should never be spoken of as normal. It's the ultimate red flag.
If you suspect your mate, Dad, Brother, Uncle is struggling mentally, they deserve your intervention.
They deserve a " are you OK, please tell me what's up".
They deserve an opportunity to get past wanting to hang a rope over a tree or in a garage and slowly struggle until they die and you find them.
If you've been there and trust me I have plenty, then you'll know that text out of the blue, or a footie mate or one of your kids asking jow you are can open the curtains to some sunshine.
Because when suicide is your only answer, the room is already dark, and you can't see a way out.
So please, fucking pretty please, ask that husband, Dad, Uncle, Cousin, footie pal TODAY how they are.
You may be shocked what comes back but extremely glad that you asked.
For those who struggle, you're not alone.
@Rob7Burrow Rob is a hero and an inspiration to all. He will never truly die. He will live on in all of his fans but more importantly his friends and family.
My little boy shares a birthday with and I tell him constantly his birthday is with the bravest and strongest man who lived. 💙💛🤍
@Kobbie4balondor@TonyBellew You dont. Ali was as cocky as they come but we all still love him.
But Usyk, his personality, the family man in him etc etc just like @TonyBellew is one of the biggest attractions to them. It makes a great fighter a role model.
@Mattdavelewis will you guys be back on the Leeds United podcast anytime soon? Or better yet...next season? Highlight of my week listening to you guys. Especially after a big win.

@Smartie1112@MichaelVaughan You're right it was at Old Trafford in the 2005 Ashes series I think. But yeah...opposite way round freddie was batting rather than bowling.
@SkySportsNews Wow! Just wow! Normally would see fans reactions and say you're all biased cos as fans normally, we are. But then seen this...yeah...just wow. FA are an absolute joke. Have zero control. And clearly corrupt. If you dont provide enough income to them you suffer!
@EbanieBridges Keep doing what you're doing @EbanieBridges true fans have no complaints! Sporting careers are very short! Make money from other sources whilst you can!
However tell ya promotion team to pull their fingers out so we can see you in action soon!
@Georginooo24 As fans we're frustrated yes. But in work or sports when I dont perform or make a mistake I best myself up more than others do. Its never done intentionally. So we dont blame you or anyone else. Its how we come back from it. So lets go win play offs. Any more is just a bonus ALAW
