It wasn't just one person on a snooker forum calling him names was it? It was a whole arena full of people shouting things at him while he was trying to beat Ronnie O'Sullivan.

You have never been in the position Ding was in and you never will be in a situation anything like it. Few people will.

That's one of the times I've appreciated something Ronnie did. A class gesture. <ok>

To everyone claiming overreaction:

Have you never been tipped over the edge by one small moment that capped a torrent of bad things happening to you?

Unless you're in the person's head you can never say that they were wrong to cry about anything really.

Selby is the best example to show Ding is mentally weak. Nowhere near Ding's abilities but still won 3 more world titles.
All these excuses like coming from China, billions of people's expectations and being racially abused as a kid are bull. We all agree he should have won world titles. What will you say when he finishes his career without winning one?

He's already achieved a lot in the game and he will achieve more. He's only 30 and he's achieved a lot more than Jimmy White for example.

I'm done talking to you. You seem like a hammer.

Finally, somebody with a brain! :hatoff:

If a mentally weak person is able to win 13 ranking titles, there must be something wrong with the game.

Nah. We need people to know:

1) That racism isn't THAT big a deal.
2) Being white and British is better than being a slanty-eyed chink with a small sausage and brain.
3) Contrary to recent teachings, crying does make you less of a man and IS in fact a sign of weakness.

Says who, fucknuts? Mark Selby is definitely the most gifted tactical and safety player I've ever seen. Or do only potting and breakbuilding count as abilities? Mind you, he's pretty good at them too.

Is that you Coland? Anyway this is a pointless argument, Ding can prove me wrong by winning the worlds but I don't really care about his mental strength either way.

Selby was 30 years old when he won his first world championship... Ding is 30 now.

Selby is 34 years old and has 13 ranking titles. Ding is 30 years old and has 13 ranking titles.

Whether your Black, White, Asian, Scottish, Welsh or English Racism is Racism and will not be tolerated here on Snooker Island i do know some people are more sensitive than others to it however that does not make it right.


I Think Lucky has put out a warning so ANY more of that rubbish and i will be taking direct action without a further warning.
