I was told on Friday we had offered to pay him out and he refused as he is on full pay....not sure if this is true but it was some-one who is not the type to make things up.

Most approaches to treating mental health are holistic...Basically whatever suits the client, if it be a concert, gym or shopping trip it is irrelevant. The treatment is about getting the client to full health, it is not clear what triggered his stress, what level he is at and what care plan is in place so it would be wrong to judge.
Also on topic most industries pay 6 months full pay, then 6 months half pay, although I am not sure where professional sports people stand, I know most have insurance so not sure if that is triggered, or how it affects the salary cap etc.

Nail on the head...The biggest problem is there is so much ignorance, lack of understanding and stigma attached to mental health....every-body suddenly becomes a consultant ...they have not got a clue, it affects 1 in 5 people and their families.

Does anyone know if he is training at all ??

Its pretty clear what triggered his "stress", but obviously it's not allowed to be commented on

I've got better things to do than monitor this today, and other mods may have different views, but back on topic, no speculation about Gleeson, or what he's doing tonight.

No probs for me with discussion based on the op, but keep it there or this goes

Forgive me but I genuinely do not understand your post, Gleeson is an FC player and we are all aware he is not playing due to stress, I personally see no problem about any-one questioning the fact he is going to a concert because tbh not every-one is aware about how mental illness is treated and clearly it is an opportunity for people to possibly gain a better understanding, and why can people not speculate about what may happen regarding his playing career for FC ?

not unless he walks to training he doesnt drive does he,wasnt longy his lift to hull??

The problem is when it turns into thishttps://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00981/Les-Dawson-_-Roy_68_981079a.jpg" >

When Cissie & Ada get started, it's time to wrap it up

Fair do's

What coddy said.

No problem discussing the issue, but gossip about him going out is gossip and we all know its not relevant

He is at a concert unless longy is lieing and i dont think that.
One way for folk with bad stress to recover is to try and get back into everyday life and going to a concert is one thing so longy is helping his mate and anyone who suggests he is swinging the lead so to speak is out of order !

Edit. Done to death.

Its not speculation about him going out tonight, Longy has posted it on twitter. If his treatment is to do normal activities then why isn't he training ?
