PFA chief Gordon Taylor eulogises Sporting Chance founder Peter Kay following sudden death
TRIBUTES have been paid to Peter Kay, one of the co-founders of the Sporting Chance clinic following his sudden death.
Kay, who helped turn around the careers of Tony Adams, Joey Barton, Paul Gascoigne and Paul Merson, worked with footballers who had alcohol, drugs and gambling problems.
PFA chief executive Gordon Taylor said: "We at the PFA are all shocked and devastated to hear the tragic news of the death of Peter Kay.
"As one of the founders of the Sporting Chance clinic he has helped countless numbers of our members deal with personal problems and get their lives back on track.
"He was a great carer and now we pray he will be similarly cared for by the One Great Carer."
