Concern growing for missing Clarke Carlisle


We are growing increasingly concerned after former footballer Clarke Carlisle went missing.



Clarke Carlisle (pictured), 37, of Fulwood, Preston, was last seen by a family member on the Flag Market in the city at about 2.30pm on Thursday (14th) although he may have travelled to Manchester.

Great news to know Clarke Carlisle has been found safe.

Very troubled man with mental health - he spent I think 6 weeks in an inpatient unit a few years back after walking in front of a lorry and has spoken out previously about mental health and suicide - so was concerned to see the news that he was missing this morning.

Not an unsurprising update, but sad to see. Clarke has done so much for mental health talk in the football world; now time for him to focus on getting himself more well again, and hopefully hospital can help with that.
