00:00We lost out on the World Athletics Championships for 2019, going to Nairobi yesterday.
00:04Your thoughts on that?
00:05Dagger to my heart.
00:07But it's, you know, I get it.
00:10You know, Africa have never hosted a massive global event.
00:14First time they'll be hosting the World Championships.
00:17We're a global sport, so it makes sense that each territory gets an opportunity.
00:23But, come on, I've got to be disappointed.
00:25I thought we put in a fantastic bid.
00:27No stone was left unturned.
00:30We had great support from all our stakeholders.
00:35West Ham came through in the end.
00:37So there's a lot to be proud of, but it just wasn't our time.
00:39Is there an integrity issue with Nairobi and Kenya in athletics with drugs?
00:44I don't know, but obviously you've seen the reports.
00:48People have expressed their concerns.
00:50They need support. That's it.
00:52They probably haven't got quite the same level of support and sophistication.
00:57So there has been issues, but they're not the only country that have faced drug issues.
01:03There are primarily a number of people who have had tried to products and
01:03especially use.
