Ronnie: I Recognise Myself In Roy | Stick to Football EP 8
With his documentary The Edge of Everything out on Amazon Prime, Ronnie chats about his life that has seen him become the face of snooker whilst battling addictions and substance abuse.
A Seven-time World Champion, the Rocket reveals how he dealt with stage fright on the table and doesn’t hold back on the ongoing issues in the sport.
Widely regarded as one of Britain’s best-ever sportsmen, Ronnie talks about his biggest influences and how Ray Reardon’s coaching helped him become the player he is today.
Ronnie also talks about fancying a record-breaking eighth world title in 2024 as he recently returned to the table following taking time out to look after his mental health.
Finally, Ronnie and Jamie Carragher take on Ian Wright and Roy Keane at the pool table… will the legendary snooker player put the former footballers in their place or is there a shock in store?

Ответить
Roy Keane is absolutely brilliant in this episode.
Ответить
To see this man be the greatest ever at his sport with the struggles he had is astonishing it’s for me far more impressive than if he won 10-12 world championships without any struggles it’s honestly ridiculous how good he was with what he was dealing with truly unreal and you can see how in awe the lads around the table of him and us in the general public to
