“So Mark, welcome to the Snooker Stage Naming Comittee. We thought soon as though you’re a regular in the top 16 now we should come up with a jazzy name for everyone to associate with you.”

“Great - I’d like it to be something to do with Leicester - that’s where I’m from.”

“Fair enough, although not much rhymes with Leicester. How about child molester?”

“Er…I don’t think that’s the sort of image I want to be portraying, really.”

“No, no, you’re right. We don’t want a child molester on the circuit. How about Jester, instead?”

“But I don’t tell jokes. I’m a snooker player.”

“Well they’re the options. You’re either the Jester from Leicester or the Child Molester from Leicester. It’s up to you.”
 
He could die his hair red and call himself the Swan Vesta from Leicester. Might even get a sponsorship from it. :icon_bigg
 
Talking of sportspersons being arrogant I once met Gary Lineker - it was at the last game at Filbert Street inside the Main Stand when my son went missing and I found him a bit aloof and snobby. Not the smiling Mr Niceguy impression he gives on the TV at all.

Yeh he was a bit snobby to me when i asked for his autograph in the car park at Wembley once, I was only about 10!
 
I met Lineker a lot when he was younger and he was never very nice. Always affected the way I saw him as a player, so I was never a Lineker fan.
