About me
When I was interviewed for the job as BBC sports editor I was asked what would it mean.
My reply was that for the first time my mother, who is 91, will feel I have got a proper job. She has never cared for my journalism but the BBC, to which she is devoted, is different.
I have come to the BBC after more than 30 years of print journalism, although I did start on the radio before moving to print.
In that time I have worked for various national newspapers including editing the Inside Track sports column of the Sunday Times.
In 1995 I launched the Inside Sports column in the Daily Telegraph.
I have won awards both for my journalism and my books, of which I have written 21.
These awards include the Sports Story of the year, the Sports News Reporter of the Year, Business Columnist of the Year and the Cricket Society Literary Award.
