An incredibly honest account of a talented footballer ruined by his gambling addiction. The scrapes and problems he gets into. The highs and the lows. I couldn't put it down.

Tony Kelly pulls no punches in his refreshingly honest account of a dream realised and then lost. Although this is the story of his descent into gambling addiction it is also a tale of hope as he comes out the other side determined to prevent others from going down the same path.

A fantastic read. A good blend of humour and serious issues. Hoping it inspires our young people who have gambling problems to face them head on and get help. Well done Tony and wish you well for the future.
