BBC Radio 5 Live

Feck sake..Kenny Sansom found on a Park Bench pissed out of his skull; lost his House; his Son doesn't want to talk to him ever again, because he shagged someone else whilst still married to his Mother; only got a few personal belongings to his name. 86 England International Caps! The amount of Callers who have phoned into this Show following his Interview, is unreal. Just the tip of the iceburg really. How many ex-footballers are in the same boat, that we never hear of?? Dont understand it when he says that they dont get any help as a Professional Footballer. Gambled all his life savings away and now is penniless. Sad, so very sad

The picture i seen of him asleep in the street was a sorry sight and he obviously needs help with the demon drink.
I'm sure the players union have offered help but until he's willing to accept it and admit he has a problem there's not a lot anyone can do.

Lots of oldskool players like this i bet, there should be a compulsory pension scheme so players like this can get pissed in style well into his 80's

Pampered over paid footballers, with no grasp of the realities of life. When they get out in the real world they cannot cope.

No sympathy really as he has wasted his life and his money.

Where is his agent now he cannot cream the fees off him?
Where are the PFA? Another useless "union" just out for themselves. More interested in the racism and gay issues than doing the job they are very highly paid to do - look after the players and the players interests.
That slime bag Taylor is no where to be seen when the real issues need addressing.

Players should have to pay (out of their own wages, not the clubs responsibility) into a pension fund for when they finish.
Chopra is another example of future problems waiting to happen. Gascoigne? How many more chances does that drunken woman beater need?

Didn't jeff Whitley have a problem before? Wonder what he up to these days

No doubt he still gets a massive pension and earns more than me. Difference is I have a mortgage, debt and two kids to bring up. Where as he just spends it on booze. f**k him.
