- Welcome to "Coming Clean With Me", the podcast where we have open and honest conversations about addiction, recovery, and the journey to sobriety.
Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Jay Motty to the show. Jay is a well-known football commentator, journalist, and podcaster, perhaps best recognized as the co-owner and presenter of Manchester United's longest-running CZcams channel. But beyond his professional accomplishments, Jay has a powerful personal story to share.
In this episode, Jay opens up about his struggles with addiction, his path to recovery, and how getting sober has transformed his life and career. We'll discuss the challenges he faced, the turning points in his journey, and the insights he's gained along the way.
Whether you're battling addiction yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply interested in understanding these issues better, Jay's candid reflections offer valuable perspective and hope. So let's dive in and get "Coming Clean" with Jay Motty.
Ever since Jay came on stretford paddock he’s slowly become my favourite in the CZcams football scene. He’s real, doesn’t pretend to be someone he’s not and he’s relatable
Yeah he is like a mate you haven't seen for ages. A good guy.
Absolutely, love him on the videos!
Motty is an inspiration to anyone trying to quit the tackle. What a man
@@jordonsmith1371 I give that a thumbs up 👍🏻
@@ElliottWald top man, I'll definitely be looking out for more of your podcasts.
@@jordonsmith1371 thank you
Jay is honestly one of my favourite blokes on CZcams. He's mentioned his past addictions in vids on Stretford Paddock and Scotty and Motty briefly, but to go into this much detail deserves huge respect. I hope this helps others that are in need. Great interview 🙌
Thank you for your comment m8, you hit the nail on the head and it’s great that Jay story can inspire others
@@ElliottWald 🙌❤️
Jay is such a good bloke.
Jays a proper legend never holds back about his past. Hardest working man in show business. Watch him everyday. I don’t think my own mental health would have survived being shielded in lockdown without the paddock boys love the guy
Love Jay. He's never hidden from the fact that he's an addict. Or a recovering addict or whatever the term is. Either way he's never hidden from his demons and that's something everyone can learn.
Hi, first time here as a Stretford Paddock viewer and I didn't know how this vid would go at all, I thought I was getting footy lol. BUT I am also an addict, the demon drink being my fight. Near 13 years sober now and counting, but it is still a fight every day. Today I REALLY needed this video though, anxiety and depression were what I tried to drink my way past, coz I'm Scottish and that's what we do lol, and both of those issues were kicking my head in today so thank you for this, you've lifted my spirits in just the way I needed. Thank you both for bringing me just the tonic i needed today i really appreciate you both. UTFP! ❤
@@paulsmith2516 awesome on 13 years clean brother… please subscribe as episodes come out fortnightly
Jay Motty what a bloke, massive respect brother
@@Broadjjj 100% to share his story
@ElliottWald I love what your doing Elliot , I've seen alot of your stuff on tiktok, great work mate 👏🏼
Jay is such a genuine bloke. Mad respect for the transparency
Big up Jay, proper bloke and brilliant united you tuber. 👍
Jay is such a top bloke man it’s hard to dislike the guy man easily one of my favourite guys off stretford paddock wish u all the best brother 👊🏽💜💯
Fascinating conversation. I'm subscriber to Jay's channel and I've heard hints of his past but it was really interesting to hear his story. He's really candid and seems to fully own his addiction.
Jay motty is a national treasure. Protect him at all costs. Love ya motty
As a guy of a similar age Jays story seems pretty normal for someone who is now mid 40's.
Yes jay! a lot of us from a similar sort of background have had the same struggles !! Great honesty and I respect you more for it . Keep up the great work with the paddock and staying sober 👍🔴
Jay is a top lad. Never met him but watch him daily and admire him talking about his sobriety. This kind of work is so important; blokes talking about blokey things whilst being positive about making healthy and much needed life changes. I was turned on to sobriety by Sam Delaney on Top Flight Time Machine and have been sober for 4 years. Without a strong influence like Sam or Jay, it’s easy to stay on a bad path.
This is one of my favourite episodes you have done, there’s good usable info here that I can help with my own battles. Cheers Elliot and cheers Motty
@@myyoot appreciate your feedback
We've never met Jay, but I see you everyday on the channel, love what you and the lads do on there from a fellow fan. I'm so glad, proud and grateful that you turned it around, because you'd have been a big loss to the community. Wishing you continued success and happiness in your life, continue being an inspiration. Thank you.
Lucky to have met Jay and hope to do so again. Truly respect his openness 👏👏👏
Coming up to 2 years sober now Jay as a fellow United fan is a massive inspiration for me lovely bloke respect ❤
@@lukepowell1988 awesome work m8
Brilliant. This is like my aa for me.. 6 months soba. Love the honesty in all you're stuff. Thank you
@@danielflannigan223 congrats my brother subscribe here every Friday fortnight
You would have never of known. Looks so young for his age unbelievable you tuber unreal bulls to be on the best united channel and come clean about it all. What a top guy .❤
Jay Motty is a legend!
Best one I've seen so far, very similar to my journey apart from prison
@@matthewhealey9706 thank you means a lot, helping people to interviewing isn’t straightforward not yet
Awesome insight into jays life before CZcams. Fair play to him and others in his shoes but also shout out to the host.
Very honest questions without pushing the boundaries.
Have subscribed and look forward to listening to more on my way to work 👍
@@UkeleleFinn Friday 2nd August next episode drops. Every fortnight and really appreciate your feedback
this was such a good and brutal insight about addiction for someone who has never suffered with addiction - and how it really differs from the stereotype.
Great pod, love Jay - top bloke!
@@colzil4316 thank you for your comments
Amazing to hear in depth about Jays journey. Followed paddock for a while, so was nice to hear more around what is a sensitive subject for some, from the man himself.
Some great lessons to be learned from listening to Jay also. Legend and an inspiration that success is not linear. If you get knocked down then you can get up again & resilience is earned, not given. Top red. Top bloke. 🔴⚪️⚫️💯❤️
Wow so much respect for Jay always heard him crack jokes about his addiction. But to hear him speak so openly is really inspiring. Great job Jay.
Can’t explain how much I love jay proper legend would love to have a beer (or a mug of brew lol) with him. Makes Stretford paddock so much better ❤❤
Sitting at the head of the table of united youtubers. Top man, Jay
Thanks Jay, I’m not an addict myself but I have a friend who is and definitely needs help. I’ll be reaching out to him! UTFP!
This is an amazing insight. Follow Jay's channels. What a hero demonstrating values and being transparency.
What a great video. Seen Jay's channel online and always thought he was an honest football fan...as bloke he is even better....nice one el
@@cornishcapers2375 he’s a great guy and I’m happy he shared his story
Legend Jay, love from Ireland
Jay is him 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
@Jay, I never knew this side of you, or even heard it happened. Fair play to you, You fucking top man for shouting this message out, it is needed, country wide.
Top man Jay. Hopefully your story will help others to make the adjustments in their lives that they need to do. See you soon. 🇾🇪
@@stevegreensmith2484 exactly this, every person who can share a story as uplifting and inspiring as Jay and puts themselves out and spending their own time coming to the studio and everything else, deserves to be commended
Nice one Jay lad! Wonder if the Parker is under the chair?
Respect to Jay man, love him on the paddock and love him for sharing this. Big up Jay, keep looking after yourself man. So much love ❤ red all the way ❤
Excellent story. I follow Jay on insta and was looking forward to hearing his story when he posted about it the other day.
I used to be addicted at the age of 8 all the way to the age of 16 where it got very very bad and I was extremely suicidal. Fortunately I got to a point where i said this can't continue and i need to stop. I hope this goes viral and gives a glimmer of hope to those still addicted. 👍
Absolutely love Jay, watched him for years on SP. Cracking video Elliott, keep them coming mate
@@ooOOtoxiineOOoo every fortnight m8, I’ve 15 episodes already recorded
Big up Jay, big fan of SP and FTD. Great to open up like this, respect. And well done on the kick !
Absolute inspiration
@@themindofben thanks for listening Jays great
Would never have thought such a video was out there. So glad I found this as he's the main reason I watch Stretford Paddock. No hidden agendas or self promotion or being a noisy needy wanting to be the centre of attention prick. A cool down to earth guy who would get along with anyone he met in the street and seeing him in this light is fascinating. Well done to all and forever respect to Jay. A lovely bloke.
Didn’t think I could like this guy anymore than I already do but guys an inspiration to anyone goin through some shit man💜💜
Jay is such a top fella
Much respect for this video Jay.
It takes a lot of character to open up and educate on this type of stuff.
Hopefully people listen and learn, and it helps some.
@@SinghRathorTari 100%
Credit to you Jay, shows that anything is possible when you put your mind to it. Love your content Jay!
Great conversation. Big up Jay, you actual hero. Keep moving onwards and upwards brother ✌
As a hash smoker from 12 and an avid party drug taker up until the ages of about 16 to 28, for me speed is the worst drug I've done.
Very addictive. I used to do it at work just to get me through the working day after not sleeping over the weekend.
Physically and mentally head fucking. I looked ill for many years, barely spoke to my family.
Weirdly, I don't regret it, I've had some amazing times with friends using party drugs, but I'm not trying to encourage anybody by saying that. It's a risky game to play with your physical and mental health.
What a guy man
❤ Jay is an inspiration
@@Henry2n3 100%
Gotta love Jay
Big up Jay, proud of you
Mint insight Jay. Inspirational.
Speaking about your struggles is everything.
@@johnturner4939 100% m8 to help others is an awesome reason
Most people think they are weak to talk which is not true it's the opposite. It takes a man to admit he needs help
cheers
Yay - another episode ❤

Cantona is in the killer a John woo film on peacock streaming service.

Jay how much for a G la
Really dont understand why we are celebrating this? This man probably caused serious damage to peoples lives and put many others at risk. Cool hes sober now, celebrate it on your own. We should be celebrating those who never touched the stuff and made the choice to live a responsible life, everyone has a choice, he chose poorly.
Addiction is a serious illness, much like any other chronic disease. It affects the brain and behavior, making it extremely difficult for individuals to stop using substances even when they want to. According to recent statistics, there were 290,635 adults in contact with drug and alcohol services in the UK between April 2022 and March 2023, highlighting the widespread nature of this issue
Your comment lacks empathy and understanding of the challenges faced by those struggling with addiction. It's worth noting that over two-thirds (70%) of adults starting treatment for substance misuse also had a mental health treatment need. This underscores the complexity and the need for compassion in addressing addiction.
If you have no interest or understanding of the topic, it raises the question of why you chose to watch or comment on this video. Celebrating someone's recovery is about acknowledging their hard work and resilience in overcoming a difficult battle. It's not about condoning past behaviors but recognizing the positive change and the effort it took to get there.
Addiction is not a choice; it's a disease. By understanding this, we can better support those in recovery and help reduce the stigma associated with addiction.
No one is 'celebrating'. We are understanding. There also isn't even a hint that he hurt anyone directly as he was only self destructive. Go touch some grass.
Please don't stop these recovery episodes El 🫡❤️
