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.

During these episodes we will take a look back at examples of mental ill health in football from yesteryear.
Today we're doing something a little different, and featuring a footballer widely regarded as the greatest Austrian footballer of all time.
Matthias Sindelar.
I was joined by Avram Liebenau to tell the story of the man who was the talk of Vienna's infamous coffee shops in the 1920's, took on the Nazi party in the 1930's, led the Wunderteam, and remains one of the most influential footballers in the games history.
