Off Topic RIP thread - June

I think the stopping and starting is one of the keys as to why it seems so prevalent in football

 

Some years ago now, my cousin James who had been released by Everton at 17 decided to go into Sports Coaching. He was at Newcastle Uni, 19 at the time and one Friday after playing football in the morning his pals said we're off to the pub. He said he felt crook and would catch them in an hour or so... When they came home they found him. It was his heart too. Something to do with a spasm or a cramping. There is some technical term for it. Imagine, actually don't, that happening alone.. 19 and as fit as a flea... !!

 

I know this is off the wall, but I think there are problems between a healthy regime and a healthy diet.

Pro-footballers not only train to extreme, but their diet is, too.

I think extreme excercise needs some/much of the stuff the diet zealots cut out.

We, except for the odd (very odd) exception, are simply not equipped for this lifestyle - nature takes its toll.

 

Seconded. An enduring memory for me will be his great left foot volley to equalise the match at 4-4 in a PL match against Arsenal a few seasons ago.

 

Me too, did you spot post #31 BMB?

 

I did but received the message" not available for viewing in your location".

 

There seems to be evidence that black African's are more prone to these heart problems. Reading a bit about it, they all seem to have an underlying heart condition which goes undetected, and many seems to have tears in the aorta which indicates a weakness in this areas. Sickle cell seems also to have some influence in some cases also.
