Speak for yourself Kentish Don

There are many people out there suffering with mental health issues and unless they told you about it, you wouldn't have a clue that anything was wrong with them. It's easy to say now, but if Clarke had been able to talk about his problems at the time it would have made life easier for him, but if you are suffering with a mental illness it is easier said than done to be open about it and talk to someone and to seek help. My wife suffers with bipolar and can only cope with everyday life because of her medication and you'd have no idea that she was ill if you were to meet her. The only people who really understand it are those who know what it's like to live with it. There are many "mental health experts" out there who, from our experience, haven't got a clue about what sufferers are going through.

I put it down to the wisdom of crowds, Shergy

Kyle, no problem and hope to see Wagner back at KM soon!

fair enough shergy i didnt read whole post

KD.......so were Tyrone Barnett and Warren Cummings but they didn't get as much stick as Clarke. Probably because they were outfield players.

RP........fair comment. I hadn't thought of that.

Ryan Clarke was fucking shit. Wagner merely stated what we all thought at the time.

Shergy, when we played the PL club we weren't going back to PL and trying to help our P&L :)

Do we know for definite Clarke was aware of that website? If not I doubt some fan apologising to him would do anything other than bring up his memories of a bad time

On ticket prices it is strange that we should be charging high prices for a pre season friendly (even though it was aqainst a PL club) when we didn't increase our prices much for the Liverpool game a few years back

Delighted to see Wagner pop in here. I hope he pops into KM too in the very near future.

In all fairness, even at the time of the Clarke out site most on here did say it was a bit stupid, grow up and take it down then move on.. not many went overboard with calling Wagner out over it? The flouncing is a tad odd but I guess felt guilty/bad about it. Flouncing because people didn’t like what he done is daft imo

Kyle, it was Wagner who said 'I would apologise to him (Clarke) personally if I could. And the club'.

waggy thanks for saving our season;-)if the manager didn't know he was struggling,then who would?

Time to come back into the fold Wagner, we all make mistakes.

Who should he apologise to Shergy? FFS its long done.

Wagner, good to hear from you. Whilst I didn't agree with the page you created I am sure your comments below are 100% genuine. Perhaps it is not too late to apologise?

Wagner... I don't care how many times you slip up and make mistakes.. We all do my friend!! But what makes decent people is that they know they have over stepped the line and knowing it means you care. People always tend to forget all the good stuff done when you fuck up once but as the saying goes..... " You shouldn't throw stones in glass houses " Miss you fella and your cigar!! xx

Lurker.......agree 100%

Anyone who even suggests that I'd have created that stupid childish page had I known that Clarke was battling with personal issues doesn't know me and have no business criticising me. I would apologise to him personally if given the chance. And to the Club.

Likewise the moaning gits who whinge non-stop and hurl abuse – who knows what they might be going through. Group hug!

Anyway back on point I agree the Clarke interview is probably a good reminder to all of us to stop and think about the human being in that shirt.

Diddy 100% agree. Hash we had something similar and it is clearly a box ticking exercise. A few years back I actually carried on working as normal when the doctor wanted to sign me off for 6 months because of it. The pay back was half my colleagues made redundant (in an understaffed department), consultants lining their pockets on the back of stating we could do more with less people and a lying director who said there would be no staff cutting. Plus a whole world more of bullshit. It doesn’t help when you then see lazy fuckers in the SLT “bravely” standing up to talk about their hard time with stress and how good work has been. Odd then that they don’t consider that when offloading all their work constantly onto overworked people. Definitely a case that as time goes by more people in senior positions are stupider, less capable and uncaring tossers.

I sure last season was a strain on most of us,certainly didnt help my mental health,amazing when your team plays well how much your health and spirt lifts.
