My Dad Played Rugby, So I Used

He Is The Best Passer Of A Ball In The World, And Real's Style Fits Him. (on David Beckham)

I Do Not Wish To Hide My Origins, Nor Do I Seek To Make It A Subject Of Conversation. I Am What I Am.

I Had My Footballing Heroes Such As Bryan Robson And Diego Maradona But My Dad Was A Rugby League Star, And He Was My Real Hero. But The Relationship With My Mum Was Rocky And We Saw Things That Would Affect Any Youngster.

He Was A Professional Rugby Player In The Area That I Played As A Youngster. So A Lot Of People Who I Went To School With Knew Who He Was And Knew That He Was Black. So I Would Get Racist Taunts In School.

You Get Yourself Prepared For A Big Game, You Get Yourself Up For It. Then Afterwards You Don't Sleep Or Eat Properly.
