    I've been at my daughter's graduation ceremony all day so haven't heard the news today. How sad. I used to love watching him. He was somebody who made a boring game come alive. RIP Hurricane.

    Snooker was never quite the same without "The Hurricane" who I am sure inspired a lot of young people into the game and made it what it is today.
