Dean Windass Reveals Attempted Suicide Bid Following Battle With Depression

Mr Neutral — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 08:17:04 +0000

Former Hull City legend discusses personal fight with depression.

Dean Windass has admitted he recently attempted suicide after battling with depression following the end of his playing career.

Windass, who fired hometown club Hull into the Premier League with a stunning winner in the 2008 play-off final, ended his playing days last year at the age of 42.

He has also worked as a television pundit but the well-travelled striker has revealed to The People the extent of his problems.

He told the newspaper: “I have cried every day for the last two years since retiring. People outside football think we have it all. But I was in a hole that I honestly didn’t know how to get out of.

“Just over a week ago I hit rock-bottom and decided to end it all.

“I first took an overdose and when that didn’t work tried to hang myself. I felt so alone and believed I had nothing to live for.

“I need to sort myself out which is why I’m speaking out now.

He added: “People have this image of me as this big strong man who can take anything life throws at him. But I’m not ashamed to say I wanted to end it after a string of setbacks.”

“I knew I’d been a fool but I couldn’t shake off the depression at feeling what a failure I’d become.”

After the tragic death of Gary Speed one can only hope that more footballers come forward to discuss their own battles with depression so that this repressed attitude towards mental illness can be resolved in the hope that those who have considered suicide can successfully work a way through their problems.

Windass should be commended for coming out so candidly about the manner in which he is looking to overcome his own personal demons in pursuit of a more fulfilling post-professional football playing career.

£4million increase from last year – not including Premier League clubs.

Football League clubs paid a total of £16.7million in agent fees last season – an increase of £4million on the previous campaign.

While the amount paid to player’s representatives have grown, the number of transactions also rose by over 500 to 2,910. Of which, fees were paid to agents in 570 of them.

Championship clubs dominated the spending, making up £14.1million of the total, with League One paying out £2.3million and League Two taking up the remainder of the total amount.

All Championship clubs paid agents fees while Hartlepool were the only club in League One not to do so.

In League Two Accrington, Barnet, Cheltenham, Crewe, Macclesfield, Stevenage and Stockport did not pay any fees, and the number of deals made without agents rose from 1,996 to 2,340.

“These figures show that a considerable amount of money continues to leave the game through payments to agents,” Football League chairman Greg Clarke said:

“This highlights the importance of the work Football League clubs are doing to establish a ‘break even’ business model across all three divisions.

“No one is trying to prevent clubs from paying agents where they feel it is appropriate, but we must make sure clubs are not spending money they simply do not have.”

Mad Dog and Glory — Sat, 23 Jul 2011 17:19:37 +0000

Hull City thrashed Liverpool in this friendly. It is worth noting that this was by no means a hugely weak side that Kenny Dalglish selected for this match against Championship opposition, the likes of new keeper Doni, Jamie Carragher, Maxi, Alberto Aquilani, Martin Kelly, Joe Cole and David Ngog and in the second half saw Jordan Henderson, Andy Carroll, Stewart Downing, Charlie Adam and Dirk Kuyt in action.
