Im guessing there is a sugden based story behind thia remark....
I was of course reffering to the elephant bar.

If I recall correctly, some folk couldn't get their heads around the numbers he claimed to lift.

They reasoned, that if was capable of lifting such numbers, they would have known who he was.

Whoever he was, he always had excellent advice to contribute - The dude knew his stuff for certain!

That was my best guess too. Not seen him to ask him since, although I'd probably have a lot of other things to talk about first.

Are you out on Tuesday?

Thanks for bringing me up to speed.

Just had a look at his lifts. They are certainly some big numbers.

They were bigger than big. From memory he claimed to routinely squat 40 kgs more than the British record, bench 50 kgs more and deadlift 60 kgs more. That's just silly he over-egged the pudding to quite a degree. He even seemed amazed that he was doubted.

So if I say I can run the 100 metres and you ask me in what time and I say 8 seconds. Would I be shocked that you laughed and walked away. I would not, he was.

But hey, what do I know ?

Just a point, you were complaining his lifts to good records and the gent in question made no claims about being drug free.

His numbers are/were less than

Tom Martin
Del McQueen
David Jenkinson

Is it not possible he was real?

Good point well made, but I still know a pudding with too many eggs when I see one.

If I didn't claim to be a drug-free sprinter would you still believe 8 seconds ?

He also, if I recall correctly claimed to be a British Weightlifter of some repute and had been on the national squad for some years. At the time there were real people on here who had been in the same squad at the same time. So if real, they would have known him. But still he remained hidden and secretive.

Gun to my head, I would certainly bet he was a fake account, but you never know.

I seem to recall his numbers being very similar to another former British Weightlifter who we knew did actually post here - which seemed to piss some people off no end...

If there were other sprinters on drugs running 7.5 seconds then it would be a possibility, yes.
