In part two of our exclusive chat with former Wrexham centre back Manny Smith, Nathan hears about how the ex-defender saw his mental health deteriorate following his retirement, leading to an attempt to take his own life while living in France.

Manny opens up on his career-ending injury at Solihull Moors, struggling to cope with life as a retired player, writing letters to his young daughters, waking up in hospital and being moved to a psychiatric facility where he didn't recognise himself. 

Of all 73 previous episodes, this is a MUST listen.
