    I just love this moment around 7:30. It's touching, because when I was growing up, this was Stephen in around 1989/90 who then effectively dominated a Decade of Snooker. He is now like a 'Father' to Stan 🙂 There's something magical and a distinction between youth and experience that binds well together when you have the right persons in collaboration.

    Hi Stephen, love your channel, great stuff keep it going! 👌 Is there any possibility of trying to get Marco Fu on the channel for a chat and a knockabout? He's always been one of my favourite players personally but he seems like one of the quieter, more low-key kind of players on the tour. So it'd be really fascinating for everybody I think, to get to know him a bit with one of your fantastic chats. Cheers 👍

    • @alanmorgan5472
      @alanmorgan5472 3 месяца назад

      ​@@johnmccaughey2722because hendrys finish line was a ton, not 70 to win the frame. Takes the pressure off when you get close to 60, which is the most important time in a frame 60-70 points. Hendry completely changed his mind set, he wasn't bothered at winning the frame he was bothered about clearing up.. thats why he made 700+ tons alot quicker than anyone at the time....

    Stan comes across as a lovely lad and his game is great. I saw him practising ahead of an exhibition match up with Ronnie O’Sullivan before covid struck, and he was mustard then. I offered to be a fielder for him as a practice frame, but he declined. Great application for one so young. I think he’ll go all the way one day.

    • @C4rl0s-_-4R
      @C4rl0s-_-4R 3 месяца назад +1

      Soft tips are softer. Therefore squash under contact with the cueball. Generating more spin. But also easier to put accidental side on and so forth. They also wear down a lot faster. Hard tips have less cushion. More deflection. But the ability to strike the cue ball harder without as much effort. In pool you would tend to play with a soft tip. Snooker you would tend to play with a hard tip. Soft tips are not actually that soft when referred to in snooker. they are still pretty dense hard tips. If you can press the tip and deform it with your fingers or thumb it's too soft for snooker.

    It shows that IF YOU live in England, You have such a BIGGER chance of being a pro! I grew up in Northern Ireland with a guy called "Johnny", and Johnny was hitting 100+ breaks at the age of 16! he played a 16 year old Mark Allen from Antrim, in a final in 2000, and pretty much whoever won would get at a chance of being a pro in England!
    Mark Allen and his "scummy mates", taunted my friend Johnny before the final by calling him all names under the sun while he was out with me having a smoke. (this was the year 2000, in Londonderry, N.I, 2 years after Johnny lost hid father at aged 14 ). Johnny could hardly play a shot in the final with nerves after what Mark Allen and "friends" said to him!
    Mark Allen beat Johnny easily as Johnny's nerves were shot. Mark Allen went on from here to be "a pro", and Johnny lost all confidence in his snooker and has worked in a petrol station to date! Watching Stan Moody play here, reminds me of myself, playing Johnny all those years ago! Where I couldn't break build like Stan from awkward positions, Johnny could!
    Although, people know Stan Moody, but never heard of Johnny!! It seems if You want to have a chance, You either need to live in England, and who you know, or be from China these days!! The World of Snooker is not doing enough to get the best players! I know, personally myself, that Johnny could beat Mark Allen hands down without what happened that night pre game! I think many people already know however, how much of a D**khead Mark Allen is though, to understand the true story I am telling!
    EDIT: I myself, have never been a professional, I couldn't break build like Johnny.... but I bet given the chance 10 years ago, I could beat Mark Allen! I did have the honour of playing the late and great Paul Hunter, and also played the late and "BEST" (in my opinion) Alex Higgins and beat him, in an exhibition match, but nobody has never heard of me! The scouting in Northern Ireland is a shambles.... yet one of the best players who ever lifted a cue came from Northern Ireland, and in no way do I mean Dennis Taylor! lol

Everything was race based, ger a grip of yourself, regularly making 100 breaks happens in clubs all over, put the eyes and pressure on and they crumble, snooker is about more than just putting balls in your home comforts.

    I don’t want to sound harsh or anything, it’s just my opinion. But I really don’t think this kid will make it. You look at the players playing now and coming through they have a way better mentality than stan. I think he needs to get a new coach or something cos I don’t think that will ever be enough to make it in this sport. It’s a real tough sport! 🤷‍♂️ not being harsh it’s just an honest opinion of the kid

      Why would they edit that out. It's only a question. It was also well worded. And you only have to look at him to realise how alike he looks to Shaun. And anyone that knows about Shaun's past knows that Shaun hit the headlines in the 2000s for committing adultery on his then wife. A year or 2 later little Stan was born. 🤔

You need to ignore things that are out of your control and focus on your own career.
