Hollioake estimates debts at $22m

this guy is such a joke

He should play five years of IPL. Everything will be sorted. Life will be okay when he gets IPL quick money

Try getting into the IPL. The quality of cricket in the league is well suited to a 40 year old fat man. Far worser cricketers than u are earning incredible amounts.

""What happened was mostly out of my hands" - way to accept responsibility there, Adam! Yet another cricketer bites the dust in business - he should give Craig McDermott a call.

Going to have to fight a lot of fights to make the coin needed to pay that off - or just go bankrupt & do it all again in a couple of years!

try to get into IPL. Age and fitness might not permit to play there,but sure some waiting staff,or similar associated jobs would be there for you. sorry but no sympathy for someone who owes 22 million to creditors. sympathy goes to all the creditors including Alec Stewart

I don't even think its true that Hollioake is fat. There was a story a few weeks ago about him doing some cage-fighting with some photos and he looked in pretty good trim for his age. I think his comment about being fat is just the sort of thing people say about themselves in moments of self-deprecation and sadness whether it's true or not, and Hollioake has had plenty of sadness in his life. Hollioake is hardly the first individual whose business ventures have gone wrong, and don't forget that after his brother died in such sad circumstances in 2002, Hollioake helped to raise thousands of pounds for charity. Surely it shouldn't be too hard to wish Adam Hollioake well.

Shame for him. He and his family have had a terribly stressful time of things. He always came across as a decent guy so I hope he gets himself sorted. All the best to the Hollioake family

@Xolile. I do not see what his weight has to do with it. Just because someone is indisciplined in one aspect of their life, does not mean it has any adverse effect on another, or indeed could be personality trait that would define a person completely. I believe he said he was fat as a form of self deprivation to deal with his current situation rather than an conclusive post-analytical statement. I do think you are correct however, that he does not deserve sympathy, but his wife and kids deserve some thought, and I for one wish them the best of luck.

May God give you the strength to overcome this hurdle. We are sure you will.
