Unless he wants to risk Qualifying for Sheffield he has to play more than he did last season.
I Believe he will play in the UK Based events starting with the English Open 10th of october and if he wins any of them or has a good run he then can pick and chose with the knowledge he wont be in Ponds Forge

Yes I agree with Wild, with more events being staged in the UK this season, that might spur Ronnie on to play them. After all, last season until Christmas there was only the CoC and UK Champs in the UK, and the CoC is not even a ranker.
But yeah he has a lot of points to defend with his UK 2014 win and IC Quarter-Final run the same year.

He is probably fed up with that usual garbage that people just keeps on spamming.. These days people seems to think that "they were not supposed to be the heroes". I always ask that what the cr@p?? I have been following those calculations and definitions for years, and I personally can´t see there would be a much, if any, errors. How it has been calculated and so on. They actually were always supposed to be the heroes. Those honours are suchs that those would not had been handed just to anybody. Ronnie has probably noticed the same thing, and he is just fed up with the World Snooker and with the fans.

He wont be playing in rubbish out.

Ronnie says he doesn't care about rankings, but in reality he always does, like any player should do.
Just look at 2012 German Masters, a huge turning point in his career. He needed to win that event and/or win Welsh Open to avoid qualifying, and what did he do? He won German Masters, and reached Semis of the Welsh.
He doesn't want to be at the qualifiers, so I think he'll play a bit more, e.g, the UK based events, to avoid that.
Having said all this, I don't think we'll see Ronnie before the European Open in Romania where he did an exhibition last year, or likely the English Open in October.

the only reason Ronnie doesent care about rankings is he is so good he can deliver just enough to do what he wants.
Ronnie does not want to play 3 Best of 19 in early April
