Ronnie had a pop at the crowd too asking to give Ding a break ( no pun intended ) Him and Ronnie became good friends after that as Ding was contemplating giving up and Ronnie was supposed to have had a word with him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sikastag_1 689 Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Aye but he's an arrogant wee f****r mate its something I can't stand in anybody no matter what they do his hole attitude is arrogant to me same as Neil Robertson I liked him when he first started but the more you watch the more you see, Ronnies just one of them guys mate I don't think he can work his head out at times remember he walked out mid match against hendry think his head gos if he could keep himself settled he'd probably hardly miss a beat but I think he struggles.

I understand what your saying but a large percentage of top sportsmen are arrogant( especially non-team sportsmen), maybe its there coping mechanism as they don't have team mates to call on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 31,602 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 I agree with that Johnny i think sometimes you get sportsmen who are so far infront of their opponents they actually become victims of their own brilliance......Ronnie as a good example i think his mind slips off track simply because he finds the game so easy....its almost as though he looks for something else interesting to focus on ( all the emotional bollocks ) even during a game sometimes.......its almost unfair that somebody can be that good at their sport to be able to do that where most of us give it our all and its still not enough.....sportsmen that gifted will often be called arrogant. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No i cant see that...if your mind wanders in a boxing ring you are likely to get put on your arse......snooker you have a lot more time to think,i would imagine its a lot harder for a snooker player to stay focused than a fighter.

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Being as though im pugged up indoors for a while i thought id try and get into the snooker so had a bit of a wild punt on that Chinky kid Ding jun Hui for the championship at 8/1............is there anyone who knows a thing or two about snooker who can give me some reassurance that i havent done my money ...............whos your money on snooker bods ? I think its a terrible bet tbh gnash. He just dosen't seem to like playing at the Crucible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sikastag_1 689 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 I don't know mate they ain't all that way though I don't have a favourite player obviously I'd rather see a countryman win first but I wouldn't say Higgins , McGuire, dot, selby, Davis etc are arrogant. Even Ronnie sometimes comes across a bit arrogant but I think that's just the way he is i don't think its arrogance hel have a bit of banter when he's playing so will the rest of em.

They say he'll be another Jimmy White "the best player to never win a World Championship" Its the session play that a lot can't seem to handle, Ding always excels in the shorter format but can't seem to click in these longer format tournaments.

In fairness, he was unlucky to lose to a fluke, but he should have finished the little lad off long before it got to that stage. World number 2 vs number 75 should only ever end one way....................... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
