As someone who still remembers the 1997 revolution at Sussex, I see similarities with what’s developed at the club over the last couple of months.
There is one big difference of course. Back then the likes of Robin Marlar, Tony Pigott and Jim May aimed their ire at the committee and chairman Alan Caffyn because they had allowed five capped players including a captain to leave in the space of a few months and decimate the playing squad, rather than financial mis-management.
In 2026 it’s totally the opposite. Sussex have – for this year at least – their strongest squad for more than a decade, as I write here.
