Jimmy White: 'I became hooked on crack'

Lolz... 'I keep Jade away from specsavers' hahaha I nearly spit my coffee out at that. V. funny and self-aware.

also... Butter wouldn't melt!!

Lovely article. Honestly, how can anyone begrudge this man anything? After all he has given and still gives?

He wanted a tour card and it looks like world snooker have given him one. The correct decision has been made.

Whether he's a nice man or not why should he be given a wild card on tour and deprive a player who should be there on merit? Am i reading it right? Is he depriving a player of being on tour or not? Also,he's nowhere near more natural a player than Ronnie. Ronnie's 10 tines the player Jimmy was. He doesn't half love himself does Jimmy.

Well, there will be 128 professionals next season and places that are not filled after these http://www.worldsnooker.com/main-tour-q ... n-2019-20/ will be given to best performers in q-school who didn't get a tour card. Jimmy will be depriving someone a tour card, I guess

Or at least depriving someone a top up place in tournaments, if not a tour card.

Could deprive the next James Cahill.l of chances.

should be OK then as Ronnie doesn't enter all the tournaments so nobody will really miss out even with 2 invitational cards. They make it 125 if all platers enter (which is rare).

If anyone has robbed a place from anybody its Ken Doherty as he has got himself back on the tour as hes allowed to do that and has meaning 65th placed man misses out on a card

Barry Hearn has said that there will be 128 players on tour and the last places will be filled from the q-school order of merit, so that's why Jimmy will be getting a tour card ahead of someone on the q-school order of merit

Hands off my Jimmy.

If White gets a Tour Card it will be condoning drug use.
