Be a lonely place, defying conventional wisdom and the powers that be. My guest today has known that loneliness. Irish journalist david walsh was convinced that cyclings untouchable champion Lance Armstrong was a drugs cheat long before the sport revealed the scale of his deceit. Armstrong is now history of course but doping continues to devalue elite sport. Maybe its a problem that no amount of truth telling journalism can fix. David walsh, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you. I wonder if you could cast your mind back to starting as a Young Journalist in ireland, working on sports. You memorably described yourself then as a fan with a typewriter. Do you still regard yourself as a fan . In certain respects, yes, but in a general sense, no. I think a journalist has to leave that behind.

In my case, i knew from a very early stage i wanted to be a Sports Writer and its because i liked writing essays
