Shocking. Not a Country to fall in debt. Who's going to set up a save Brian Rice fund then?

True. I can't imagine it would take them long to pay the debt off for him.

I got five on it. Although if he gets locked up it makes the jersey even cooler, so I'm torn.

Get the buckets out at the Antwerp game.. Pound a man, then chuck it on a 8/1 at Newmarket.. You know it makes sense

Spunking enough money to buy a house on a roulette table isn't some misfortune that just befalls you. It's a wilful, conscious act of stupidity.

Modern society. Get yourself in bother then ask others to help you out. Don't do it in the first place, Brian.

He's hardly kept the problem hidden.
My wife worked with his wife when he was here, he used to lose thousands on the horses and at the casino and everybody knew about it. Cloughie knew about it and made sure some of his wages went straight to his wife so that he couldn't blow it all.

You.re wrong there. Gambling addiction like any other does " just befall you". I smoke. I know I should,nt. Costs a fortune and fks my health up but i cant stop. Ask the alcoholic to stop drinking and the junkie to stop taking his fix no chance. There but for fortune go you and i means any of us could end up like Brian. Just be thankful you have'nt

Well said fella. Too many people think you can stop just like that.

No. Not by fortune go I. It's not fortune that I don't smoke, or gamble, or take heroin, or down a bottle of vodka a night. It's not like getting a brain tumour. They are all choices made by free will.

Might not be easy to stop, but you don't have to start.
Or gamble away tens of thousands of pounds you don't have.
Ever thought of a career in mental health.
