Is this a club phsychologist?

Hat off to you Flynn, the more people talk about mental health the better. You won't always put in MOTM performances, and maybe you will have some games where you make costly mistakes, or where you need to rest. It doesn't matter, you're one of us, and we fans are right behind you. Follow the Town, Up or Down.

When you get a good chemistry with a psychologist (or someone else that is not too closely connected to your life), and you talk straight from your heart, let things off your chest, it´s a really good feeling. There is still so much taboo surrounding mental health. It´s a great shame. Why is mental health seen in such a different light to physical health, especially regarding men?

Credit to Flynn for first taking that step to talk then, the hardest step of all, and now for sharing. These footballers are role models after all and it will inspire others to do likewise. I said the first time I see Flynn that he's the most talented academy product I'd seen since Keiron Dyer, I'm still convinced of that to this day. What a player he can be! Also I want to take this time to throw serious praise at Skuse, he has been immense so far this season. And quite a pair they make. No better partnership in the division.

Perhaps those forum members who persist in hurling cheap abuse at Chambers week in week out might also like to reflect upon the pressure that this must place on this quiet, family orientated professional. The psychological demands of performing in a very public arena are rarely appreciated by some of those who are only too happy to bray from the sidelines.

I totally agree with you warwickblue, there always seems to be a player picked on for abuse which is in the extreme; poor old Josh Emmanuel now seems to be a lot of people's go to insultee.
I watch the matches and always chat about who is having a good game who is not etc., just like everyone else, but the insults leveled at some of theses young men on social media is frankly abhorrent.
There is also a psychologist, supposedly, who posts on this site with quite vile, churlish insults about his fellow posters who have the temerity to have a different opinion to him, absolute disgrace.

I know from experience the demands that Downes is going through at that age. I think its incredibly admirable that he is prepared to be open about it and am relieved that nowadays players have the opportunity to speak to someone to seek advice/help. Well done Flynne, youre having a great start to the season and look forward to your continued success.

Warwickblue - Just turn it in. This piece was nothing to do with Chambers.

As for the abuse you refer to, i am one of the town supporters who feels Chambers should not be in the squad, let alone the team. He has been abysmal for the last two seasons and town are averaging a concession of two goals+ when he plays. As centre back and captain he should be commanding and respected. Due to his continuous mistakes and poor performances, he does neither. This has nothing to do with his personality or off the field persona. It is based on hard fact. I feel it is counter productive to sling cheap insults from the stands and I support all the players once they walk onto the pitch. However, i realise that some fans pay hard earned money(pittance in comparison to the money Chambers makes....even after a pay cut) and voice their opinions and frustrations.... TO ALL PLAYERS . Modern players are aware what they are getting into. They have a significant amount of media training, support and Chambers has been involved in football for a good many years.
