After several years work at the Vancouver Sun in Canada, he returned to the Express as its chief sports writer before moving to The Independent as its sports editor. He reported on a wide range of sports, including football, boxing, cricket, golf, rugby, tennis and athletics, and was described as "one of the last of a golden era of writers who became integral parts of the sporting landscape through the power of their prose". He also collaborated with several leading sports personalities, including Sir Bobby Charlton, on their autobiographies. He was named Sports Writer of the Year by the Sports Journalists’ Association in 1988, and later also won Sports Journalist of the Year in the British Press Awards.
