I think it is good for youngsters to see me at 45 still jogging around the track. If me being here gives them a boost then thats great.

Some of today's athletes do not have that kind of pride. They left school at 16, have never had a job in their life and are getting Lottery funding, earning money as an athlete.

I know what it takes to get to the top.

If you criticise something then you have to have an alternative, but we do have to try and improve things.

Robert Fox is real good! Enough said!

I think the athletes respond well to me because I have been successful.

I am a coach on the outside of the establishment and that works.
