I've been reading about the two footballers you refer to and it is the latest chapter in the long running saga of what can happen to those who seem to have it all, when any form of addiction takes hold. As it happens, I'm learning a song called "The Contender". Written by Jimmy McCarthy, it is based on the sad story of Jack Doyle who died an alcoholic having had the world at his feet.
I was interested to see that you thought you had run out of songs 'til you were inspired. It's over a year since I have written anything so hopefully this will spur me on .I look forward to hearing your song.
