"Well, I know the signs, because the same thing happened to me. An older neighbour. Her name was Elaine. I was 18 and my body was firm from push-ups and sit-ups. I was stunning. But whilst my body was mature, I had the mind of a 12-year-old. Elaine invited me over with the promise of pie. Little did I know this would lead to an eight-year-long psychosexual entanglement.

Wiggins referring to people who accuse him of doping :

"It's easy for them to sit under a pseudonym on Twitter and write that sort of s***, rather than get off their a***s in their own lives and apply themselves and work hard at something and achieve something. And that's ultimately it. C**ts."

Perhaps one of the finest uses of the C word outside of Bricktops words of wisdom from Snatch about the word nemesis.
