Moment #1 - Christian Scales: Ex Crystal Palace Footballer Talks About The Problems In Sport Today!

Published on: 8th March, 2024

When the cheers of the crowd fade and the stadium lights dim, the battle doesn't end for athletes like Dele Alli. His documentary pulls back the curtain on the personal struggles faced by sports figures, a side often obscured by the glare of public judgment.

Episode 6 with Christian Scales peels away the layers of misunderstanding in sport. We explore the possibility of a shifting narrative, inspired by icons like Dele Alli and Joe Marler, who, through sharing their stories, pave a path for empathy and support from a notoriously critical audience.


The conversation shines a light on the silent pressures shouldered by the youth in professional sports. We share the story of a promising young talent from Manchester City, whose journey took a tragic turn, prompting us to question the adequacy of mental health support within clubs and governing bodies.


This episode doesn't just lay bare the improbable odds these young athletes face; it questions the very fabric of the support systems in place, or lack thereof, for those who find themselves on the outside looking in, once the dream of a professional career slips through their fingers.
