There are many fans of Paul Hunter аmong us, we know you were teaching him. What was he like at that time and in what age did he discover his snooker talent?

Alan, this season we have less ranking tournaments and less prise money than ever: what do you think about the nearest future of world snooker? can it survive without tobacco sponsorship? can it become more popular over the world?

You are welcome, Alan

I hope you will enjoy this forum

But I have a question about Quinten Hann. Is it possible that he will come back on the snooker circuit? He´s a very talented player, in Pool and Snooker and it would be sad, when he couldn´t find the way back, after all what the press did to him. I like him as a player. I like his game.

Thanks for answering.

Regards, Sammy

Thankyou for your warm welcome, i find riga is a very beautiful city.
Paul Hunter was first discovered by another professional snooker player called Jimmy Michie, he taught him from the age of seven until the age of ten, he approached me to finish Pauls coaching, his highest break before he came to me was 58, after two weeks coaching he made his first century, i knew then he was very special. i continued teaching him until he was 15 years old, a sponsorship deal was arranged for him and he went to practise every day with another top professional at the time called Joe Johnson, the rest is history

As for the game as a whole, i feel that it is turning a corner, i have been told that a big internet gaming company is going to put alot of money into snooker over the next few years. the game is in good hands

Quintin is a totally different matter, he is a very tallented player but nobody knows his future, only him.

I have been asked to write a little about myself, here goes:
I have been playing snooker for 40 years and teaching it for 31 years, my favorite player is ronnie o'sullivan at the moment, i say this because in the eighties i thought that nobody could surpass the tallent of Steve Davis then along came Steven hendry and of course now ronnie, who next could be my favorite, perhaps a young gifted player reading this message

it seems to me that he is playing slower than a just couple of years ago... besides, he takes less risk now... do you agree? if yes what can be the reason behind this? just getting older and wiser or ray reardon's influence? thank you

That´s greedy *headshake*

A few weeks ago I asked Alan: "What´s the matter with Quinten Hann?" and now I have to read that he finished his career *cry* I´m very sad.
