Alan Amos on Cricket, Sobriety, and Mental Health: A Chat with Sandwich CC Legend

So it's not about the amount of games you play. Because halfway through the season, a team sitting in seventh, sixth and seventh, they're not getting relegated, so they're just going to turn up, turn their arm over and pick their wages up. Again, it's people at the top and people who are in charge who actually haven't got cricket really in their blood.
Ever wondered what goes on in the mind of a cricket legend? In this episode of 'Henry Weston's Old Mate', hosts Stu and Eoin sit down with Sandwich CC icon Alan Amos for a lively chat that spans cricket, sobriety, and mental health. They kick things off with some updates on Walmer CC, before diving into Alan's all-time local XI - a list sure to spark some debate among cricket fans.
But it's not all about the past; the trio also tackle the current state of English cricket. Alan doesn't hold back, pointing out that those at the top often lack a true passion for the game. He also shares his thoughts on how the English summer affects the national team's performance.
As if that wasn't enough, Alan and Eoin wrap things up by picking a starting XI for the first test match of the summer, making some bold choices that are bound to surprise. This episode isn't just for cricket enthusiasts; it touches on deeper themes of sobriety and mental health, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of sports and personal well-being.
