Pt 1: How Alcohol Nearly Destroyed a Football Legend | Tony Adams

In the final episode of our Dry January mini-series, Dr Alex George is joined by a true footballing legend. Tony Adams had an extraordinary career at both club and international level, winning multiple league titles with Arsenal and becoming the most successful captain in the club’s history.


In part one, Tony shares how alcoholism turned his life upside down at the height of his career. He opens up about the painful ways alcohol affected his relationships and unpacks the pivotal moment he decided to put down the drink for good…


Plus, Tony discusses the importance of giving people struggling with addiction the right support and resources - and explains why it took him so long to realise he had a problem with alcohol.
