Wow…. What an unbelievable episode. I think we must thank Keith for all his honesty. I work within a stressful pressurised industry and although nowhere near Keith’s money I earn ok. I have had big and continual struggles myself and this has helped me personally realise that I must also make changes. Keith take a bow for being so honest and continue to stay strong

Fair play to his wife. She must be an absolute diamond. So glad he’s sorted. He was a real talent.

In fairness to Keith he's now one of the best pundits in Ireland. Brilliant homework done every time he's on.

Got to say. Fair props to Keith's wife for giving him time to face and get over his demons

This is absolutely brilliant and an eye opener to a lot of people I’d imagine. Fair play

Love this lads. You’re laughing your bollocks off one minute and trying to empathise with someone who has really struggled the next. The balance is superb. Right up there this one 👍🏻 you give opportunities to those that have struggled to hopefully help others struggling. Nothing is unbeatable, well done Keith Treacy

What an episode!! Fair play to him been so honest Really glad he’s found peace Top man!!

Parky right at the end of the episode. What a question to ask 😂

Watched every episode (including patreon) and haven’t commented before. This was excellent from you guys. Glad he’s in a good place now. Keep up the good work fellas.

The man himself ,legend and I think you need a part two and three ,there’s still plenty of stories left 😂

Great Honest pod-cast from Keith. Thanks Lads !!!

Finding life hard at the moment, watched this and Kirkland one yesterday. Tears in my eyes! Not loads but they came out and I’m going to try find some light and happiness!!

Superb episode, one of the many fascinating characters in football. Keep up the great work guys. 👍🏾

Excellent pod. Good on Keith for laying it all bare

Great episode. Need a part 2!

This is one of best ones. You lads are getting very good at this.

Love the channel lads. Always great shows, like the different perspective on this one. Good honesty 👍

Absolute quality episode. Remember him playing for Ireland was such a talent as a young player. Great to see him get his life on track and tackling his demons.

Terrific episode, absolutely loved Keith when he was with the Blades and was surprised he didn't go on to bigger things, but this is a good insight to the struggles he went through, glad he's doing better now. The final few seconds of this video gave me a good chuckle too hahahhaa

Absolutely brilliant episode

Keith is a Legend. Full of positive energy. Greetings from the west😎😀😃😁

Excellent, as always.

A great watch that lads, really glad Keith has sorted himself out. Selling himself short at Wednesday, he was brilliant in that spell!

What a talent. Great podcast fairplay Keith

What a brilliant platform for ex pros this channel is 👍🏻 great to see keith doing well too!

One of the most naturally talented players I've seen at deepdale.. was gutted to see him leave.

He joined Sheff United on loan in 2009 and immediately he stood out as a really talented winger, he even scored a brilliant long ranger in an early home game which helped him become popular with our fans. We thought we'd been lucky and brought in a top player, he only played a few matches for us (playing really well) then seemed to disappear from the 1st team and quickly left. A few years later he joined Sheff Wednesday on loan in league 1. My brother supports them and I told him they've got a top player. In early matches he told me he stands out and looks far too good for league 1. He only played a few matches for them too playing well but was sent back. Didn't realise he had off the field issues. Makes sense now.

Great episode- I didnt know anything about this but good.

Fair play to him for being so open and honest ffs brutal shame he never got on top of his drinking. If he was playing tht well half pissed he would of been a prem player if he stayed sober.

Last 10 seconds, what a gem

Alcohol is an enjoyable but very,very dangerous drug.Half the podcasts are funny stories of pissed behaviour but then we also have this...Good to see him looking so well

top episode, great insight into his addiction and footballing career, one day at a time, wish you all the best fella

Many a session had here in dublin with him and his bro, what a talent he was

Looking forward to this one,patreon episodes have been poor of late though,1 hour episodes last two times and big waits between episodes

best episode by far

Tuesday treat 🙌🏼

We fucking love you brother ❤️🇮🇪 Hope you're doing well mate

as a wednesday fan Keith will always be a hero in our eyes and the fact he probably did it pissed up makes it even better Glad to see youre turning the corner Keith

As a North End fan, Keith was one of my favourite players. In that team with some of the players mentioned really made me love North End even more. Was gutted when he left us

Real shame he never met his true potential, but just goes to show you never know what struggles people are going through personally.

Seems like a nice fella. Speaks very well....Im sure whatever he wants to do in the future he'll do well

Wowzers - what a journey!

The very last thing heard on the episode 🤣

Some ppl can drink others drink till they blackout...its such a shame because that 2-5 pint level is actually really enjoyable. Its knowing when to stop is the real fucking choker. Goodluck 2 anyone with a drinking problem, I'm finding it hard lately I can't just have one or 2 just end sitting there with randomers in the pub till closing,should be with my family enjoying there time. Not pissed up every other day.... Cheers lads watching these and the quizzes keeps me out the pub anyways, means alot x

Loved him at wendesday was critical to us going up

Hilarious!! You Forgot the eggs and washing up liquid!! Plus the picture Keefo corn beefOOO ;) !!

Keith needs to write a memoir. It would be a best seller.

He's doing well on the pundit scene in Ireland these days

Really enjoyed that, I loved playing football as a young lad but never got anywhere for at the time it was everyone else's fault, manager's, parent's, teammates etc etc.. But now at 42 I understand that for a lot of people no matter how much they love playing football or how good they are at it , its the in-between that is the problem. Fair play to Keith for coming through the real side of his personal journey which in the end the football comes a pale second to the real gifts of life . Even G Best in his autobiography blamed the poor teams he was playing in for his lack of interest in football and his love for drink and women. You either have it or you don't and I don't mean the skill 🤪🙌🙏 To some football is enough to motivate them and keep them ticking over in life to others it's a matter of life and death and to the people who understand both sides of the story it's much more important than that. 🙌🙏 check out Jamie's new Album that's the real deal. GB you Keith .

I thought he was excellent when he come on loan to us more than a decade ago now and then don’t know what happened to him,never saw him again.Once a Blade always a Blade.very honest lad,great podcast.

Top man.

He gives me George Best vibes! Great insight, grateful he turned it round

I'll never forget that corner he scored against Leeds! 4-6

How many episodes is there on patreon that have never been put on KZfaq????

What a story

You guys pick some brilliant footballers, never heard of the guy but wow what a story 👍

Enjoyed his honesty, it was hard to listen to especialy the womanising and drinking, but hes turned his life around, good on him 👍

I remember we (burnley) played Preston at the Turf, first season of relegation with Brian Laws as gaffa and they battered us, Treacy ran riot but we won 4-3. We had a chap around then on the board, who liked certain players (Brendan Flood, he bought us Eagles) and that sold him on Treacy. He clearly had talent but COULD not run at all. He had to chip the ball up the line for a front man to run onto, he genuinely didn't have the pace or fitness to beat a man. It was also common knowledge with fans he had a major drink issue and it sadly fizzled out. He did certainly have talent though, he is being modest when discussing Preston.

Deep and honest fairplay takes balls to admit ur wrongs

I thought this was going to be a funny one. It got quiet deep. Sounds like he was very talented. Glad hes doing better now 🙏

Ah lads I hope you have him signed up for part 2. This was brilliant but I think there's more stories to come from him

What was the answer to the question at the very end?

Lads get Keith part 2 I think he can tell us more stories

Great player was Keith gutted he couldn't stay at Burnley. Had his demons but glad to see he's in a better place now

'U must do better ' could cover all of Keith's career. Keith does a decent Trap accent.

Easily the best 👌

short but great time at wednesday

I’d never heard of Keith until I started watching this podcast. Such a shame really but looks like he’s in a good place now and his demons are conquered

I heard that Treacy was sold to Burnley ( £850k ) because Preston had cash-flow problems and Burnley agreed to pay the fee in full upfront .... Also, he'd had a blinder against Burnley the previous season, scoring one and setting up another, oddly enough for Jon Parkin ..

only time he seemed to care about the football was di maria's offside goal 😂 nice fella tho. was good to hear about dyche's man-management too since i'm a burnley fan, so never knew how that played out. hope you keep your demons under control.

At 49 mins parky is spot on

More serious than funny but still good

How could you leave it on cliff hanger at the end there?!

“It’s a good fun house like but it’s an expensive one” 😂😂😂 The little bald one comes out with some belters. Tickled me anyway

He was very very good for preston

Frustrating but fair play for his honesty.

Find you a woman like Keith's! 5 years dry is no joke. Hope the lad keeps it up for his sake and the sake of his family. Great pod this boys. Won't be everyone's cup of tea but for me the emotional and psychological side of footballers at the top level is massively disregarded (fans act like the lads should be robots essentially) and really fascinating.

Could have been a great Keith, was very good

Good stuff lads, i had a girlfriend like that, she left me with crabs instead of prawns.

The Newcastle result was 3-0 at SJP. Darren Ferguson came out after the game and claimed Preston battered us…

Pity he didn't achieve more, definitely had the talent.

Parkin ' or enhance them ' 🤔 Chris and the other fella faces and awkward silence lmao 🤣

What a fucking crying shame for Keith. Hope his after football career gives him some success.

Hell of a pofdcast

Now there's an honest podcast for you!

Obviously he had major problems but still surprising that there was almost no football at all in the whole conversation, probably a good metaphor for where football was on his priorities at the time of his career...But still found it a bit strange he seemingly had no desire to discuss the football side at any point tbh....Good luck to him moving forwards though.

Mad that he retired at 26/27, had about 7/8 years left if he played his cards right

What was the photo?

I'm not sure if he played for Blackburn Burnley or Bournemouth that accent is so strong 😅

Back from the brink

I hate to admit it but alcohol has robbed us of some many greats over the years.

Sorry to say I can only remember your football days vaguely, but hearing your recollections "I respect you as a man" honestly, truthful and funny. Nice hearing your dry 5 years "proper professional " took me 40 years to wake up" keep up the good work and the jokes" should get yourself a good book deal pal

Allardyce managed us after Ince, he replaced him.

Upside down heads points go absolutely nowhere

Morton Gamst Pederson only ahead of him because he could throw the ball??! 😂😂😂 MGP is a Rovers legend

I just really do not understand why so many players seem to throw away a dream career for the sake of going out all the time in grotty UK (& Irish) pubs. 🤷🏼‍♀️

He looks a lot slimmer now then when he was playing for us, wasted talent

Why does he look younger than when he played

Prawns 🤣

Can't believe he thinks he's gonna get ahead if pedersen with us he had no chance
