I heard a rumour yesterday. Won’t be posting it though. Seems this kind of confirms. 

 

My money would be some kind of depression or mental illness. 

 

Hopefully it’s not life threatening.

I saw this. He might be a hibs **** but I actually don't really mind him too much. Got a suspicion it might be depression.

 

Hope whatever it is he gets through it.

Sounds like the one I heard. I didn’t totally dismiss it but you don’t want to spread stuff especially one that isn’t true.

 Is that what it is ?

 

You know  what..I just assumed that is what is. But it very well might be something totally different. 

 

Shouldn't jump to conclusions. 

 

What ever it is doesn't sound good.

Got a message from a mate last night saying he’d reached a very, very low point due to gambling debts. The gambling bit appears to have been confirmed, unsurprisingly the other bit hasn’t.

I'm hoping for christmas aff on the sick aswell! 

 

Seriously though as a few have mentioned above I also heard he's in a really bad place and needs proper help soon as, I'll be surprised if he's back this season. Hope he find the right help and gets healthy asap.

I don’t think his gambling has ever really been that much of a secret tbh.

I’d imagine by the end of the day most people will hear the rumour. Surprised nobody else has posted similar to me. 

 

Not gambling related?

Firstly, hope he gets all the help he needs and gets his life back together.

 

Secondly, (and not a dig a Leigh or Celtic specifically) but does anyone else notice the irony with a professional footballer with a gambling addiction and his club being sponsored by a gambling company.

I really don’t want to say mate. I’d heard he’d been at a casino though. He sat in a bookies round from my place a lot too. He had gambling problems I think.

In a bad place, so many players do this. 

He's lucky he just signed a new extension, has some security at least. 

 

This just hastens his return to hibs.

Indeed.  Mr Lafferty's shirt also now bears a gambling sponsorship.

Shame both the old firm have players with similar problems lafferty is back doing it aswell it's not the only problems these players have though the mindset is a massive thing in football one player I see with a positive mindset atm is callum paterson ain't just happy being ordinary wants to push himself all the time I think that can be the problem when u join the old firm clubs u can get to comfortable and just be happy with what your earning and doing rather than testing yourself and seeing if u can take it to the next level.

I remember a few years ago when he lived in Bonnyrigg used to see him going in / out of the bookies a lot

Gambling addiction or mental health related, both brutal.

 

I hope he sorts out whatever it is.

 

He's a bit of a "panto villain" to most Jambos but I really dont mind him too much TBH.

If gambling, all too usual in football players.  Best of luck to him.  His two free kicks against England cemented his place in football.

Sex addiction. And now this.

 

Can't quite take it all in.

 

Well all that shagging around is a gamble, eventually...

 

Anyway, mind when he mocked Naismith being injured? Feck him.

Sorry, no hypocrisy from me either.

May seem a tad harsh to some but you can't call one of our finest players a refugee and get the sympathy vote. Probably doesn't even want it, especially from us.

I'll leave the curse of gambling, and it's causes(!) for others to debate.

Racist welt who is 100% Hibs in every way.

 

Another career onto the list with the likes of Gary Jos and Riorden etc.

 

 

I don't wish those demons on anyone but i sure as hell don't need to give out sympathy either.
