Sean Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Quite a frank and open interview here with Jordon Ibe, mental health discussions start around the 20 minute mark. Hope he's getting the support he needs and that he can continue to work his way towards the team for next season.

Woodley Ram Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Wow, very brave to go on and say that, I think he came to Derby because of the supporters and how we were with him. HIs health is the most important thing, but I hope to see him on the pitch soon and for him to realise he is part of the Derby family, we don't just say once a Ram always a Ram we mean it.

Andrew3000 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I hope Jordan isn't just getting basic counselling. He has clear PTSD symptoms and needs trauma therapy, like EMDR. The PTSD will likely be a maintaining factor for his depression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me I could go on. I am only surface hoovering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Concerning that he seems to say it was only when he hit absolute rock bottom that the club offered any support. He does suggest things have improved somewhat so perhaps we might still see him show some of the outrageous talent he possesses when fit and in a good place. Either way, I hope he can at least begin to rebuild his life as it sounds like he's been in a bad way for a long time now.

On the flip side to this he does also say he kept it to himself, doesnt even sound like close family & friends actually knew how bad he was. So yes the club could have spotted and helped sooner but if they dont know about it they're not in a position to help. Thankfully the club and his family/friends now know so can help & support him. Like someone said above, he is clearly struggling from the mugging so probably could do with additional help, and I hope it means the club are keeping a close eye on Wisdom after his attack last year too. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Still only 25 so hopefully can get himself into a better place and start enjoying his football again..

tinman Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) He's had his contract cancelled by mutual consent. No surprise really. It's a shame, but it's been growing clearer that football isn't his focus now. Edited July 1, 2021 by tinman S8TY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lander Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Hopefully we've played a part in getting him back to a better place mentally, didn't work out on the football side but there's more to life than that. angieram, Carnero, Tamworthram and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Disappointed with how this one has turned out. I really hope he gets himself back on track. I would say it doesn't help our situation, but in truth it probably doesn't matter. JustOneBiblicalKazim and RadioactiveWaste 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Good luck to him wherever he goes and whatever he does next. A talented person who has been broken by the game is how I read it. Sad that his potential never really got fulfilled but he needs to find peace and happiness. Probably for the best both parties move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Is this when everyone panics due to our already small squad getting even smaller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Risk worth taking, unfortunately it didn't work out. Football really doesn't matter, does it? Hope he gets well soon. Steve How Hard? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Good luck to him. Didn’t work out on the pitch but hopefully he’s doing ok off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucksRam Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Real shame this. I for one was really excited when he signed, not least for what he would bring us in attack. Gutted it hasn't worked out but clearly he isn't anywhere near where he needs to be to focus on and play football. Hope he gets himself sorted and I look forward to hearing of him signing and succeeding with someone in the future (so long as it's not against us!). I wish him good luck.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 First interview with him when he signed told me everything I needed to know and I knew then it wouldnt work out. The signs were there. chewbacca and Rammy03 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably but I think most people on here doubted we'd see him play for us, even if we all may have hoped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
