Very few and far between and somehow you would expect 11 gold medals to account for something considering we have awarded knighthoods to Sir Steve Redgrave and Sir Chris Hoy who have won half as much, the disabled athletes just get paid lip service in the main unlike our able bodied athletes, double standards anyone.
