Cold and wet Saturdays and Sundays playing football from the late 60's to the 2000's with the heaviest leather balls makes me wonder how any of us have got this far if I'm honest. At least the balls are lighter these days and don't hold the water as much, if at all. Great subject matter Joey. Keep up the good work mate...

I really enjoyed this podcast, and a really important topic discussed, and I hope this matterbisbtakrn more seriously. I am interested to know if goalkeepers are affected, they may not header the ball, however they do throw their bodies about on a day to day basis which must lead to some trauma

Decent thing to raise awareness about. Joe you are sounding more like the Rovers manager I remember in this podcast.
