Listen "Let's talk about mental health in football | With author Johnnie Lowery"
Episode Synopsis
Mike is joined by author and Sutton United fan Johnnie Lowery to discuss mental health in football; from the perspective of fans, players, and managers. Johnnie's new book, "Match Fit" delves into the many aspects of men's mental health, and how football is intertwined with that in so many ways.
In line with some of the chapters of the book, we look into the pressures of management, players dealing with addiction, creating a support network for men, and the impact of social media on people in the game. How can we break the stigma of discussing how we feel as men, in a space as safe as with your fellow football fans?
The book Match Fit is available on Amazon here
