    Sad. Nothing more to say really, except that Fanini sounds like a really nice man.

    Thats really disappointing, his tale was quite inspiring but now he is letting a lot of people down.
    The saying you can lead a horse to water springs to mind.
    It’s the most beautiful sport in the world but it’s governed by ***ts who have turned it into a crock of ****.

    He's letting himself down most of all. The only person who can help him is himself.

    In America as kids we were taught a saying: "If at first you don't succeed, try try again." And as na ex-smoker, I know how easy it is to give up and then fallback into it again. Gave up eventually. Point being, hopefully he'll get his shit together this time.

    That's disappointing. It looked like he would manage to pull it all together, and maybe even get some good results.

    Very sad, but the article is true about the number of relapses people go through before they finally kick a habit (any habit).

    I wish him (and his long suffering family) well.
