What is Ronnie O'Sullivans long hair secret ?

[jj]

That's EXACTLY what I'd heard, too.




Oh, but you forgot the bit about the Holy Brylcreem of Arimathaea .

It's a marketing ploy , as you watch him thinking how after seeing this you will never pick up a snooker cue in public again , you clock the hair and say , if he can go out in public like that , I need not worry about a career best break of 7.

[The Last Word]

I imagine O'Sullivan's hair is nothing more than a bit of faux-rebel posturing aimed at startling those who still equate long hair with such* - which speaks volumes about the snooker fraternity. O'Sullivan: a sizeable master on the table. But then endless melodramatics, threatening reporters, silly talk of quitting, the whole tortured-soul turning to Buddhism act: a sizeable wanker off it.

*the better half informs me he should be aiming for the Paris riots look these days - but then that could involve him reading a few books, so it might be out of the question.

It's because in the 'Reply' box his name (already shortened, from Tarquin Fintimlinbim Whinbimlim Bus Stop F'Tang F'Tang Ole Biscuit-Barrel Don't Sleep in the Subway Norman Edwin Foolloosa the Third) won't fit.

Im guessing the secret is not having it cut

I'll keep schtum about the other bits, then.
Unless someone makes me an offer.........
