Quotes by Jonny Wilkinson

“I like to think I play rugby as it should be played - there are no yellow or red cards in my collection - but I cannot say Im an angel.”

“I refuse to go into a fast-food outlet - to use the toilet even - in case anyone got the wrong idea and thought I was sneaking in a quick burger.”

“I only get the points because I have team-mates who do the work and put me in the position to get them.”

“My post-Sydney goals are to become a much better player and person.”

“Theres a lot to be pleased about and there is a lot to be down about on what we can improve on (after scoring 35 points in an 80 - 23 win!)”

“I just want normality again. I want to be similar to everyone else, to have the right to go out there and play, to start attacking my goals and my dreams,”

“Im very relieved to have got through the game without any serious bumps or bruises,”

“Its a frustrating time for me but hopefully that time is about to end and Ill be able to play for Newcastle soon.”

“Ive been kicking for about a week or so. Im just about to start training pretty full on. The idea is not to go too fast but I hope that from now on, Ill get a couple of games in and get match fit.”

I play with a fear of letting people down. Thats what motivates me.

I would like to wish the England squad every success. I would also very much like to extend those wishes to Martin Johnson, Brian Smith, Mike Ford, John Wells, Graham Rowntree and the rest of the England 2011 World Cup management team who have been fantastic and deserve people to know that.
