I coach a few guys and they work very, very hard, but in our day we did it because we just loved it.

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.

There was no money in the sport but we'd be out there day in, day out, rain or shine, doing it.

I think it's great that they are getting funding, but it's just too easy. They don't have to work for it. We did it because we had pride, because we loved it.
I am a coach on the outside of the establishment and that works.
I don't think there are really enough meetings in Britain for our athletes to compete properly, and because of this a lot of the talent we have has been stunted.
