Athletics career
He competed in the 1968 Summer Olympics.[1] He was suspended for life in 1974 by the British Amateur Athletic board after admitting in a newspaper article that he uses steroids.[2]
During the period that he used steroids (1967-1972) he represented England and won a silver medal in the shot put, at the 1970 British Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, Scotland.[3][4][5] Under current athletics legislation the medal would not recognised.
