Perhaps I was a bit naïve in not paying the matter due care and consideration at the time. I had not really had the opportunity to think about it and I had not fully appreciated the implications of expressing my support at the time. I have a good working and professional relationship with Lee Doyle and I have been attached to the 110sport stable for some years now but on reflection, I decided to withdraw my support. This was more concerned with the fact that I did not really wish to become embroiled in the politics of what is going on in the sport. I am a snooker player and that’s what I want to do – play snooker.'<br /><br />Bit different to 'fearing retribution.'Dave Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08037719321756898982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29605452.post-62374985877005583912010-10-07T15:10:54.436+01:002010-10-07T15:10:54.436+01:00What jolly japes...let's guess what the bad ne...What jolly japes...let's guess what the bad news could be!<br /><br />1.
