Recovering Clarke Carlisle so happy to be alive

The lorry driver who hit Clarke Carlisle during his failed suicide attempt has refused to speak with the former Burnley defender.

Carlisle has been trying to get in touch with the driver to apologise for jumping in front of his vehicle on the A64 near York on December 22.

But the former England Under-21 international reveals in an interview in the June edition of GQ Magazine that the driver has rejected the opportunity to talk to him.
