Re: Sad, but the right decision

Poor bloke :'(

Had so many years left! His career had only really started! But i must agree I'd give up football if it meant saving my life. And following the doctors orders this time is really sensible indeed.

I hope that he is able to continue a career in football but above all I hope the remainder of his life is long and happy; second chances are rare enough but having already 'died' they are minuscule.

Sincerely hope he finds something to do with football. Coaching, ambassador role, something. Too big a shame if he becomes just another forgotten ex-footballer.

Hope he has a role in football. A very lucky young man who, I am sure, recognizes that he has a 2nd chance and will take all opportunities that come his way. Best of luck to him.

He's rich, he has a wife and kids - he doesn't need to play football and it would only threaten his health. Smart move by him. Wish him the best of luck in the future!

Most horrible thing I have ever witnessed, he has done the right thing. Good luck to him.

No brainier really, if that happened to me football would the last thing I wanted to do anyway. Scary stuff.

Good luck to the lad.
