Writing in The Independent earlier this week, Ravenhill talked of the reality of life as a lower division player moving from club to club against the image of footballers' and their families enjoying the high life.
Having recently moved on from Northampton to Mansfield, Ravenhill said of his time at Sixfields: "Although I enjoyed my year there retaining the club’s league status against all odds, I had to live with a mix of both methods.
"This meant I missed many crucial family events because of nights in hotels as well as enduring hours in tailbacks on the M1."
