SOUNDBITE: (English) James Erskine, Ian Thorpe's manager:
"Now that he's gone for help and whatever there's been a huge warm feeling towards Ian and I think that everybody probably feels that, they all got something out of it. Everybody at some stage can remember where they were or watching him win gold medals and I think they're all pulling for him. I think they're all quietly pulling for him in a very nice and sincere way which I am sure will help him."
