The Jester from Leicester.

Maybe but it would have been even sillier if he was from Wolverhampton

good job he never came from Cheshunt

better than the joke from stoke

sib the fib

he isnt even a jester, he is actually very boring

Next thing you'll be telling us he isn't even from Leicester

I wouldn't be surprised if Jean-Claude Van Damme's actually from Antwerp

he isnt even a jester, he is actually very boring

he's a modern day Tommy Cooper compared to you

Tbf, Selby seems like a very decent chap.

Anthony McGill has his very own licence to thrill

Mark Selby was a regular in the pool leagues in Lesta, was a real class lad from a young age and has not seemed to change with success.

A rariety in sport as down to earth lad dad died at 16 and he never even had a place to live unlike the like's of o'sullivan given everything from the age of 10,spoilt brat..

^ didn't O'Sullivans dad spend time in prison ?

Yes, for murder.

The roaster from towcester.
THe juank from weymouth.
The fud from froome?

The Jester From Trowbridge Who "Forgets" To Post Snooker Cues to Hong Kong (think that's his nickname) is not at the 2015 renewal of the Championships I gather.

I must admit I always liked the nickname "The Sheriff of Pottingham."

My favourite player (and surely the one with the best nickname) is Graeme "I'm Not Pol Pot But I'll Pot The Lot" Dott.

How many other players can boast such an impressive array of internal rhymes?

I'm sure that Chit Chatters will know.

Is Willie Thorne's snooker club still open in a Leicester ? I knew him and his elder brother Malcolm.
Malc  used to manage the club. Sadly I'd heard he'd passed away a couple of years ago

the building is still there but the last time I was down there I think it was part of the Riley group.

watched Willie play Bill Maynard there one evening in a charity match

"Pint of cookin and a bag of nuts please"

Back to snucker...

This lad is the new 'Nugget'

you jest!?

Facts,
Willie was a poor player of horses and dogs, put the club in mum`s name decades ago when he was in a mess, should have lost it then.

Yep, he was.

My missus used to work in WT's during the 90's, though as a London boy i was never in there.
