It is well deserved. Alan was one of the game's great unsung heroes and was one of mine when I was growing up and starting to support the club.
He has remained in close contact with Derbyshire cricket over many years and has regularly been in attendance at home matches.
He has always been and remains a top bloke and it was a thrill for me to be able to interview him for my second book. It was an interview handled as professionally as he has always been.
Best wishes, Alan.
The presidency in what could be a special year...
Excellent choice. A true servant of Derbyshire and a really lovely guy.
