The former Dundee United and Scotland star has spoken out on a podcast with convicted Scots killer Sean Toal.
Reformed football badboy Andy McLaren has told how his tough scheme upbringing led him into a drug and alcohol spiral.
“The older you get you look back and reflect on your life and you see how stuff like that affects you. We previously told how Toal, who served 15 years behind bars for killing 20-year-old Paul Gerard McGilvray, had sparked anger after vowing to speak out on law and order issues after his release from jail.
A move to English club Reading was meant to get his career back on track, but it was left in tatters when he tested positive for cocaine in 2000. Andy is now associated with a string of good causes. He has visited schools with the Kris Boyd charity and spoken in Scottish prisons.
