Brigzy 1,298 Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Gnash, I'd of thought Ronnie would have been one of your Cockney heroes ! His dad was a bit of a gangster, made his money from strip clubs and porn, but obviously young Ronnie had a great skill! For me he is the best! He is a bit of a "damaged god" with his temperament , but there is no doubting his skill !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 31,321 Posted May 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 I know who is father is mate and what he,s about....but i dont have hero,s ...well...apart from Bobby Moore that is !......Ronnie only lives up the road from me but i dont know him..........im not a massive snooker fan but id imagine he,s got to go down as the best ever....would he ?

In the modern era, I'd say he was the best, especially as an entertainer. The old pro's like the Davis brothers, etc, couldn't live with him. Could have the two Steves given him a game........well, that's like asking if Louis could have beaten Ali....different era's. Edited May 2, 2014 by Brigzy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lanesra 4,007 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Hahaha The Bike Lol , O'sullivan Is The Most Naturally Gifted Player To Hold A Cue Over The Last 30 + yrs Ive Watched Snooker , Would Steve Davis / Hendry Grinded Him Down Is A Question That Will Never Be Answered ! he Looks More Composed / Relaxed Now Than He's Ever Done Which Is Good Cause He's Had Problems Over The Yrs With His Mental Part Off The Game . . My Biggest Break Was My Left Arm When Falling Off A Swing As A Kid 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hendry and O'Sullivans carears have over lapped and Ronnie holds a 30-21 head to head winning record against Hendry, though Hendry as won 7 worlds to Ronnie's 5, Hendry as won 5 uk Champs to Ronnies 4, he also leads in The Masters by 6-5. They've had 11 maximuns each, so all in all pretty even. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brigzy 1,298 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 The "official" number one versus the "real" number one ! Great for snooker and the snooker watching public ! I'll have to rearrange a few things to watch the whole match. Looking forward to it !! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
