The Isle of Man's proposed Institute for Sports Excellence could only do so much for our elite athletes, according to the Performance Co-ordinator for the Manx Sports Aid Foundation, which suggested the facility should be built.

However, he admits the Island can only go so far in nurturing talent, such as world champion cyclist Mark Cavendish:
