On this edition of the FootballVision Podcast, Phil is joined by Tom McGlinchey (academic associate at Nottingham Trent University) to discuss academy football and mental health struggles that often impact players upon release. Starting off with some background on his own route into the game, conversation moves onto the staggering figures around professional football, players who tragically took their own lives and what more can be done to support people moving forward.
