S3. E4. The Business of Sport - David Thompson

In the latest instalment of the Downtown Den Podcast, co-founder of VSI Executive Education Andy McIntyre is joined by former Liverpool, Coventry and Blackburn Rovers footballer David Thompson.

David discusses coming through the ranks at Liverpool Football Club, his moves to Coventry and Blackburn and his eventual early retirement.

With injury cruelly cutting his footballing career short and affecting his personal life, David candidly recounts his struggles with mental health and the lack of help he was offered back during his playing days.

Looking to the future David shares his hope and vision for his future career and how he can utilise his experiences to guide the future generations of young footballers.
