Just read @SHendry775's #autobiography, #MeAndTheTable, very different from the first one "Remember My Name" by John Docherty almost 30 years ago. If you're a #snooker fan/nut like me, then it's a must read. Got through it in record time too! My first sporting hero.
This man was the reason why I found myself down the club constantly in my mid to late teens, why I went to watch him at Woodlesford #Snooker Center before he was number 1 and World Champ. He missed a century and rolled/bounced his warped £40 cue across the table in frustration 😃
I'm so grateful that I got to see him at the #Crucible on the last day of the world final where he beat @jimmywhite147 with a session to spare. It was great to see them both come out in the evening with #PeterEbdon, the late Len Ganley and one or 2 other pros. #snooker
He manages to express his feelings and emotions throughout the book as if you've gone back in time and you're actually there with him, from playing on his small table in his teens, relaxing between sessions at the #Crucible, to house hunting when breaking up with Mandy #snooker
I find the relationship he had with Ian Doyle astonishing, a manager who seemed to psychologically coerce/bully him into being a machine in the #snooker world, so driven was @SHendry775, he seems to simply accept this mistreatment. #MeAndTheTable @SnookerMemories
He writes about other #snooker pros and it's great to see he doesn't put them down. His couple of paragraphs on #PaulHunter #RIP is poignant, emotional and very well written. As someone from #Leeds who met him and have family that knew him, I appreciate this. #MeAndTheTable 😢
I'm sure another dominant #snooker player will come along and get close to, or beat, @SHendry775's 7 world titles, someone with the aloofness and dedication of Hendry and @SteveSnooker. Congrats on the book, worth the read!
