This piece, from @TheAthleticUK on Richard Eckersley and @ReRootedOrganic, speaks to so much of OtL.

Football has an unspoken problem with sleeping pills. They are highly addictive. Linked to short-term memory loss and dementia. Games have even been missed as a consequence. Yet players across all levels keep taking them. My investigation. https://t.co/AxLpTjij0L

So much of this speaks to Only the Loanee.

.@JoleonLescott Very interesting interview with @BumperGraham for @ghpodcast. Rubs against a lot of what 'Only the Loanee' explores (while also being a stealth Christmas movie).

Essential reading.

I interviewed Andy Woodward for the first time since he waived his anonymity, in 2016, to tell us about Barry Bennell and start 'the tidal wave'. As the headline indicates, his story doesn't get any easier https://t.co/qvPdJvgDXj

[Only the Loanee @OnlyTheLoanee]

Another story worth reading.

[David Sneyd @DavidSneyd]

Spent a weekend with @moorsey293 and his family last month. We drank, ate and watched football.

This, with Troy Deeney, sheds light on so much that goes unreported.

"A lot of these young men are genuinely unhappy" - my column on NBA commissioner Adam Silver's revealing remarks to the Sloan Conference ... and the research that suggests elite sport has more mental health issues than we think https://t.co/Gc1nAWuE1l

Fernando Ricksen, the former Rangers captain & Holland international, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2013. He is now barely able to move & no longer able to talk, & uses his eyes to communicate. I went to a hospice in Airdrie to interview him: https://t.co/WO95Ns17xs

Best wishes @JJL_Thompson

[ᗷIᒪᒪ ᖇIᑕᕮ 🎙📻 @billrice23]

Not just a fine footballer but a great man too.

Thanks for all you have done in football @JJL_Thompson and good luck for the future and life after football too!

So many hidden struggles. Important to take stock when they emerge.
