All three of them talk about their gambling problems in the movie to make more people aware of the free help and resources for gambling that are available through TalkBanStop, which is a relationship between GamCare, Gamban, and Gamstop.

In the movie, Merson, Platten, and Flaherty talk about their pre-match rituals. They also encourage people who have been hurt by gambling to start a new process before a game through TalkBanStop.

Merson, a former Arsenal and England player, said that Gamban saved his life. He said, "It was great being in the movie to help get the word out about the tools and support people can get through the TalkBanStop partnership." These days, watching big games and events is very different. In the past, you had to go to a bookie to place a bet. Now, your phone is like a casino on wheels, always luring you in.

"People can do things to make sure gambling doesn't get in the way of the games ahead by calling GamCare's Helpline, getting a free Gamban licence and signing up for Gamstop."

Platten, a YouTuber and podcaster, said that he had major gambling problems after his first bet at age 14. He got into gambling through football.

Flaherty also talked about her experience with gambling in a roundabout way: she saw friends, family, and teammates deal with problems related to gambling.

Anna Hemmings, CEO of GamCare, said, "At GamCare, we know that big sporting events can be hard for people who are having trouble with gambling." There will be more gambling ads, office sweepstakes, and a lot of games, which will make people more likely to bet. We know that many people will be afraid that gambling could get in the way of their enjoying the games.

"We want people who are having trouble with gambling to know that TalkBanStop offers the perfect pre-match ritual to help stop the urge."
