I played with Creek for several years when he was in his late teens early 20's.
I need more than two hand the amount of times he’d go out after games, get absolutely blasted and get kicked out of places for his sloppiness, or giving women unwanted attention, I know, I was there.
Same with using, it was not an irregular occurrence, more than a few on the team were using too, I was there, and did it too.
The allegations of DV are somewhat out of character, but not shocking, but innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
For all the faults the man may have you can’t deny the community effort he put into the club, engaging with the kids and fans, there’s just a stark difference between the public face of a club and his private demons.
