does ANYONE like snooker ?
 

bow-tie snooker

i love ken, he's just brill,
and this recent snooker row, is making me ill.
its petty and silly and drags snooker through the mud,
this could have so easily been solved, and nipped in the bud.
wenbo and junhui played Ireland's brightest hope,
but what went wrong, ken felt it was as bad as a test for dope.
so what was it that caused all the fuss,
wearing no bow-tie, ken said was a unfair plus.
the Joe has to agree, because the rules were obstructed,
snooker is a profession, only top class conducted.
ken as a big fan i am on your side,
because any slip in standards is a snooker divide.
snooker is the best ever sport,
as for the bow-tie dispute, its got to stay is my report.


(the joe loves snooker and i hope millions of other people do like me. but the point of this poem was to back ken up in saying all snooker players should wear the correct clothes at all times as its the rules - or am i being to petty and need to let this go and relax ? )

no

Yeah I can get into Snooker every now and then :) I don't personally have any really strong opinions about it but I do watch the World Championships every year, I've been once

The Joe needs to realise we don't often care about his poems.

-didn't even read the OP before posting my relevant reply-

Snooker reminds me of the accusation Brits always make about American sports.... No one else plays it, so you claim to be world champions... :P

Yes.

You've made this exact thread before. :bored:

No.

Playing yes (or pool? the one with just red/yellow balls)

I really like Snooker. Sadly my favourite player was lost to the sport very young in Paul Hunter but it's an intense game of concentration.

Prefer Pool, a lot simpler to play, don't watch either though

i like this

paul hunter < and what a loverly guy he was < the port will miss him. well remembered joeysteele

Deleted.

It's all right.

PS: haven't you made another thread on this? :conf:

a new year and a new competition and a new poem from the joe

Yes, absolutely love it! don't mind playing either although prefer to play pool!

I just HAD to rename the title of this thread.. it was bugging me so much!

In the past few years off memory there has been: Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Chinese, Japanese and Australian champions, maybe you should actually check what you're talking about before posting.

Snooker is good.
I like watching it on the tv and playing it too!
