    When you hear what Simone Biles testified before the Senate about abuse she suffered at the hands of their former team doctor, Larry Nassar, then you can empathise with the mental pressure and trauma she has had to fo through.

    Heard Paul Merson on GMB and he was in tears about his mental ill health and gambling addiction. He had everything but at the same time had nothing. He won the title in 1991 had had no carpet at home.

    You have to buy the book.

    Paul Mersin has an app that stops him receiving any gambling advertising which could tempt him back into that addiction. My nephew's all gamble on their phones and are constantly at it. It is very dangerous how easy it is.

    Actually I remember now. It wasn’t junkies who stole his carpets.

    It was rug addicts

    That is a bit extreme.

    All that work so you can gamble.
