For a 2021 documentary, former Arsenal player Paul Merson brought together three fellow ex-footballers recovering from gambling addiction - Keith Gillespie (Newcastle and Northern Ireland), John Hartson (Arsenal and Wales) and Scott Davies (Reading) - to discuss their lives and losses. Tony Adams, Merson and Hartson's former Arsenal captain, founded the Sporting Chance clinic in 2000. It provides support and treatment for current and former athletes to overcome a range of addictive disorders. Adams told the Times in 2022 that Sporting Chance sees more athletes with addictions to gambling than alcohol, describing gambling as "the drug of choice for the Premier League footballer". While perceptions around addiction are shifting, some mental blocks remain. "There is an issue with athletes seeking help, generally, compared to the general population," explains Alex Mills, head of education and communication at Sporting Chance, which had more than 1,000 people in its care last year. "There's a macho aspect to it. There's an ego that's needed to thrive in that world but that can often equate challenges with weakness."

John was so close to the dark side, but thankfully he seen the light.
24 years ago John Hartson was ushered into Ibrox Stadium and was expected to sign for Rangers. The big Welshman was paraded in front of the media, and all that was missing was his signature on the dotted line. Big bad John was that close to going to the dark side. David Murray was still reeling from the 6-2 thumping from Celtic who were enjoying a resurgence under Martin O’Neill. Minty decided…
