Billy Cookson likes to think of this week’s British Track Championships as the FA Cup. “You’ve got the best athletes in the world in their discipline, you’ve got world record holders, world champions and European champions… and then you’ve got me,” he smiles.
“I’m like that non-league team that gets a good, little run and gets to show off what they can do – Havant and Waterlooville, a good few years ago, that’s the one that always sticks in my memory.”
