https://www.eurosport.co.uk/snooker/ger ... tory.shtmlThis would only actually be accurate if WST have scrapped the invitational tour cards? Presuming BH is still pulling some strings behind the scenes then I can’t see them not offering him another tour card? Otherwise he is guaranteed to stay on the tour for as long as he can walk?

He's got a tour card for life as a grand custodian of our game.

Exactly, so not sure what he means he is fighting to stay on tour, the only time he will not be present on tour is when he can’t walk any longer.

Is he due a hip replacement or something?
Or are you planning a kneecapping?

Even after any of those things he would still be “flying in practice” no doubt lol

Seems unlikely.
Players rarely win tournaments after getting knocked out.

So, all Jimmy needs is for everybody in the Quarter-Finals, and everybody else who lost a last-16 match to test positive for cannabis, and he'll be announced the winner?

I think other illegal substances would count too.

I forgot that happened.
Poor Jimmy trying to make people think he's good enough to be on tour but hasn't been in the top 64 for over a decade.

Do you work for the BBC?
"Other illegal substances are available."

If Jack's reading this, I didn't want him to think he had to smoke a big doobie if his preference was for a big bowl of special K.

Jimmy needs to dump his secret stash in the Tempodrom watercooler and get the hell out of dodge.

For a player of his standard Jimmy didn't win a huge amount when he was on coke/crack. However once he stopped using it's noticeable that he didn't win a huge amount then either.
Moral of the story is he may as well keep smoking crack for all the difference it's made.!
