Honest Billy Kee
 

I don't know if this has been linked on here before, I knew something about the issue but certainly hadn't seen this piece ...... says such a lot about Billy that he's prepared to speak about depression so frankly. Good lad ....

I listened to that this morning, had no idea how to put on here, Billy deserves a medal as far as i'm concerned, takes real guts to come out wi that in my view.

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

Everything he said is so truthful and honest. Well done, hope it does help someone else.

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

Makes you wonder how good he couldve been. It was well documented earlier in his career that he struggled at some places, and now he, or they, would be reluctant to make a move.

8 goals in 9 games (plus the abandoned Morecambe match) shows his calibre

Just watched part of this again on BBC North West. with Billy @ J.C. well done Billy lad @ J.C. supporting him.

It took guts to open up like that. I am glad we as a society have moved along enough to allow people to feel they can ask for help with no stigma attached. Well done Billy Kee.

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

It must help and make some difference when your "Employer" backs yeh in summat like this. Well Done J.C. and Stanley also.

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

Those of us blessed to be free from this illness - and it is an illness, must wonder how, as Billy acknowledges, anyone who enjoys such a envious lifestyle could possibly suffer from depression?
But depression is a killer just as powerful as cancer.
Thank God Billy has the support of a loving family & a caring employer.
Billy, I hope you know that you have another family who are devoted to you - 1200+ Stanley fans!
SUPER BILLY KEE!
WE WILL ALWAYS
LOVE YOU!

Zanazala also sounds like a good lad.:)

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

Just watched the BBC video about Billy. When you watch him play you have no idea he is struggling with such issues and credit to Accy' in giving him a long term contract, so important I would guess in helping him to concentrate on his football, rather than everything else which is afflicting him. You have yourselves one very good player for this level. As a Morecambe fan I wish him all the luck going, apart from 6th March when we really need a point or three to try and get up the table a bit.

Re: Honest Billy Kee
 

Thanks for your comments on Billy, we're all really proud of him both for his football skills & his openness about his problems.
While we're really grateful for the favour your lads did us yesterday at Wycombe, I don't think we can stretch it to letting you take anything away from our place a week on Tuesday if we can help it :)
