Sam Austin
On this very special episode of It’s Notts Just Physio, Producer George steps out from behind the scenes to help co-host an exclusive interview with “Super” Sam Austin. From being scouted and picked up by Burton Albion under Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, to becoming a fan favourite at Kidderminster Harriers and starring in the iconic clash with Wrexham that helped secure promotion for Notts County, and now making his mark at Southend United, Sam’s football journey is defined by hard work, adaptability, and resilience.
In our conversation, Sam opens up about a recent injury and his recovery process, shares his insights on the behind the scenes of what makes a great physiotherapist, and explores the mental health challenges that come with life in football. This episode gives a real window into the dedication, mindset, and character that have shaped Sam’s career - honest, down-to-earth, and inspiring.
