Seems a few stories are emerging regarding Sean long. Is it out in the open yet and can it be talked about on here in a constructive manor?

Whatever your thoughts about Sean Long, (I actually like the lad and I think he was a cracking half back), he deserves enormous credit for having the guts to talk about his depression in such an open manner. Mental health issues affect millions of people and only by people like Longy talking about, will the barriers be broken down.

I really commend him and wish him a speedy and full recovery!

trying to kill yourself is a sign of weakness imo...the easy way out instead of tackling your problems head on, and most of his problems are self inflicted.

Ooh, look at the big hardman! An expert on depression then are you? I wish Longy all the best.

If people here were to tell you what they think of your view, they would all be banned...!!!

I hope he deals with his demons...

I can see your reply was at 1:55am. That's your only possible excuse.

OMG.......!!!!!!!

some pond is missing it's amoeba...............

It's attitudes like yours that result in tragedies like Terry Newton...God rest his soul......

Exactly. So many people suffer from anxiety and depression. Its easier for people to admit they are Gay or Lesbian today than to say they have depression. Its as its a dirty word when all most need is help and for people like the 1 cell organism you replied to to be educated to understand how difficult it is for the person who has depression and their families.

This has to be an alcohol induced post, that's the only reason someone would post such drivel, unless they have their own serious issues.

Just to get this back on topic...I'm glad this didn't end in tragedy, as it seems it could very well have done so. There were rumours on here around the time that Sean had been sent to 'Rehab' obviously, it seems, there was something far more serious.

Depression is a real issue, a real illness that not everyone recovers from. Our very own Bilko has spoke candidly on Twitter about his own struggles with it. More people need to know it's okay to talk about it, and to not suffer in silence.

I have never liked Sean [But then, i have never met the lad] but he is a Wiganer, a member of the RL family and probably the most important - a father and husband. I hope he defeats his demons and becomes a better person for it.

I hope so. Hopefully he will apologise and we can all move on.

You should be banned for this.

No he shouldn't.

No matter how outdated and unpalatable his opinion may be, he hasn't broken the AUP. Back on topic please.

I've just deleted some posts that added nothing apart from personal insults. If you can't make a point without insulting someone expect a ban.
