Mick Duxbury: From Man United to Milkman… The Reality of a Football Career

Mick Duxbury tells the full story of a football career that goes far beyond the highlights. From over 200 appearances for Manchester United, 2 FA Cup winners’ medals, and 10 England caps — to life after football and starting again from scratch.

In this episode, Mick opens up on:

• Breaking into Manchester United in the 1980s
• Playing 60 games in a single season
• Winning FA Cups… but not always feeling fulfilled
• Why he struggled at international level with England
• Life under Ron Atkinson and Alex Ferguson
• The reality of football’s drinking culture
• Moving abroad to Hong Kong
• Facing the end of his career
• And starting again — including working as a milkman before becoming a teacher.

This is a raw and honest look at what a football career really looks like — on and off the pitch.
