Given their obsession with rhyming slang I'll bet Jimmy White is glad he's retired and I'll bet Chris Brunt is happy he chose to be a footballer :greengrin

I've been to watch a few Premiership games over the last wee while G and there's a wee hint of that kinda stuff sometimes. For example, Bolton with their fireworks etc as the players come onto the park. Am not a fan of this 'Americanisation' in sport myself :agree:

If we're going to go for the Americanisation thing, then lets get some cheerleaders in to ER, if the fitba's pash then at least there's something good to look at meanwhile.:greengrin

Steve Davis just refered to the Jester from Liecester as the "hoover" cause he cleans up the table at each visit.:wink:

Kirk Stevens might have been called that a few years ago, for something completely different.:greengrin

I also wonder how snooker players can cope playing a zillion frames with them long sleeved shirts and bow-tie and waistcoat whilst under pressure etc.... jeez, I'd be sweating like G. Rix dressed up as a Santa at a kids party.
