Toony Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I would assume most people have either been affected by mental health issues or they know someone who is/was. The people who have posted the 'jokes' have also expressed some concern for Lennon, it's not like they've just came in the thread for a laugh. The comments just need to be taken for what they are, light hearted jokes that were posted with no malicious intent whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMadLad Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 If I've offended anyone in anyway then I can only hold my hands up and say sorry. Seriously, I didn't mean it. I was taking a tongue in cheek dig at Everton, not someone with mental health problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're using mental health as a source of a joke against a football club, the only person who needs to give their head a wobble is you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I'm a bit disappointed that this has reached the media in all honesty as it means somebody has effectively sold him out and I can't imagine everybody knowing about this at an early stage will be beneficial to him. On the flip side I'm happy there was some form of knowledge as otherwise something else far worse could have happened alongside a motor way. I don't want to discredit the work the PFA do but I remember a couple of years ago Leon MacKenzie tried to get funding to set up a football partnership for previous and present footballers to go to that are suffering from depression. It doesn't seem like that has come to fruition which is a shame. Regarding comments, for all we know it may not be suicidal and could be psicosis related or down to an out of character cognitive relapse and that can be triggered by significant life events such as moving away, or the stress of realising your career is effectively over. So I wouldn't read too much in to Storts comment. He's inevitably going to mention spurs and London because it is relevant to the player in question. On the other hand Imagine how many threads Madlad would bring up Liverpool in if they got as close to the title as Spurs have in the the last two seasons. He's bad enough as it is.

Why bring me into it like? And Liverpool have come much closer to winning the title than Spurs ever have in recent seasons but what the hell has that got to do with this topic?

Journalism in this country really is on its backside. Do these people ever stop to wonder why depression is so prevalent in affluent places like Europe?

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 10, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted July 10, 2017 He won't get a game this season. Hopefully we keep him long enough to see him through to the end of this process he's undergoing then help him find a club where he'll flourish again.
