We're Ryan, Dan, and Ant, three 20 something lads, from Birkenhead, who love football. 24% of women and 13% of men in England are diagnosed with depression in their lifetime. But men are three times more likely to die from suicide than women. We wanted to know why. Join us every Monday and Friday as we speak to people from the wide world of football, all about Mental Health, in an attempt to learn more about it, and encourage men to feel more comfortable talking about their health and wellbeing, and attempt to remove the stigma that still surrounds the topic.

Where we're going, we don't need roads . . .
Jordan Cranston graduated from the Wolves academy in 2014. Despite spending almost his formative years playing in old gold, he departed without making a first team appearance. Since leaving Wolves, Jordan has turned out for Notts County, Lincoln City, Cheltenham Town, Morecambe, and currently holds the number three shirt for national league outfit, Solihull Moors.
During Mental Health Awareness Week in May of 2020, Jordan bravely spoke about the darkest period of his life, during which he fell into a painful battle with depression. Even in 2020, when more and more former footballers are opening up about difficulties they had during their career, Jordan's honesty, as a current player, is still somewhat unique.
We talk to Jordan about the anxiety during those early days at Wolves, homesickness, and his experiences of depression, all the while maintaining his career as a professional footballer.
