Zitat:But Lough is branded a "control freak" in running circles, because of his obsession with ruling Paula's life and all she does. Three years ago the world witnessed Lough, himself a former 1,500 metre runner, tear strips off his deflated, tired and obviously heartbroken wife at the World Championships. And what was Paula's crime? She had finished fourth in the 10,000 metres. As she collapsed on the Edmonton track Lough flew into a rage and made clear his disgust at the result. Even when Paula pushed her way past her snarling husband on her way to the tunnel where journalists and the world's television crews were waiting, he followed, shouting with anger. A senior sports reporter who witnessed the row said: "It was a pretty nasty scene. He was so angry and so not in control of his anger that his face was ugly with it. Paula looked completely downcast. She hadn't done well in the race and then her old man was losing it, right in her face and it was all caught on camera for the world to see, over and over again."
