Yeah I realised that afterwards (hence the edit).
I can't think of any other reason to go to Crawley either to be honest but it's not something I feel particularly strongly about. I deal with it by, erm, not going there.

There is a good Theatre and excellent Sports Centre (maybe not the best for Snooker Tournaments), Tilgate Park is great, the Nature Centre there is no longer free, but is a decent visit.

The Rocket is a top, top sportsman, not so sure about him as a bloke.

I'd take the brave and committed jump jockey over an egotistical person with a history of cocaine any day.
McCoy is a born winner, and for a fraction of what the select few flat boys get.
Ryder cup record: 13 wins, 21 losses
He has mental health issues. The fact he has prevailed, the fact he has found a rubric, the fact he has insight, has sough help, the fact he is still the winner he is.....
Legend. Absolute legend.
I wish he hadn't fought Holmes at the end of his career when already showing symptoms of parkinson syndrome.
Seems Ronnie really went after Carter in the post-match press conference that was embargoed until 6am this morning...
“He needs to sort his f***ing life out. I’m not going to skirt around it anymore, tip-toeing on egg shells around someone like that. He’s a f***ing nightmare.
“Playing snooker against someone like that is a nightmare. He’s not a nice person. It’s not a nice vibe he leaves around the table. I’ve said my piece, I don’t give a s**t. I’ve said it now, done.
“You know what he’s like, everybody knows what he’s like. He’s got issues. F***ing why has he got issues with me? I’m not having it. I don’t care, grow some balls.
“I don’t give a f**k, I don’t give a f**k about any of these snooker players, any of them. The more he brings it on, the more I f***ing punish him every time. He’s just digging a grave for himself.
“I don’t give a f**k. That’s it, I’ve said my piece. He’s got beef with me. He’s got issues, he’s got to sort his life out, he’s got to see a counsellor or something.
“He’s got to deal with that because that’s no good. He’s got to sort it out, because I haven’t spoken to him for 20 years. I played with him when he was a kid and shared a lot of stuff with him. For him to come out and try to trash talk me like that, do you know what?
“He can have one of them [middle finger], he can sit on it as far as I’m concerned.”

As said before, amazing player but an absolute spanner.

What did the Captain say in the way of trash talking?

They'll draw each other at the Crucible now, you wait
Carter is particularly unlikeable though.

Should be more of it really. Being Genuine. It’s well known that they don’t get on and I would have far less respect for Ronnie if he came out and spoke a lot of false crap about Carter…. Oh he played well and he will win one in the future etc etc
Why not say it how you see it?
I’m sure everyone here has someone they can’t personally stand, so can relate

Turns out The Captain was trash talking the Rocket by accusing him of 'snotting' all over the table and it's surrounds. Blowing his nose on the baize. Incredibly poor if true but surely the TV camera's would have picked this up?
