Puts life into perspective
That’s awful. Anyone know the cause of his death ?

That really does put into perspective the pressures that footballers, particularly in the lower leagues, obviously feel.

Something to make us all stop and think before we post hurtful things that players may read. We may not think some of them are very good, but they're young men, often away from home and family, in a very high pressure occupation, and (irrespective of perceived ability) deserve to be treated with respect.
RIP Lee Collins.
I totally agree Colin.That really does put into perspective the pressures that footballers, particularly in the lower leagues, obviously feel.

Possibly because they stated the cause of death before the inquest has closed!
The coroner only has the post mortem cause of death and will be waiting for a toxicology report to eliminate or quantify drugs, alcohol etc as contributory factors.
That`ll be done at ours as we are contracted to lots of coroners across the UK.
AwfulSo many demons that can take us away at any time.
RIP Lee Collins, be at peace now.
