[In reference to playing Stephen Hendry after the 2005 world championships] He's like a wounded animal, you know, he's dangerous. |
=The physical and mental pain [of playing snooker] has been taking its toll. |
At the moment I'm not really interested, but don't get me wrong I want to win! |
I am so peed off with the game and I am bored with it. I would rather be planting a few shrubs in the garden. Hopefully the match gets abandoned and maybe John Virgo and Willie Thorne come out and play a few trick shots. I really don't care. |

I can't wait to get playing again. I want to carry on for another 15 years and I am as motivated now as I was when I first took up the game as a kid. |
I didn't care whether I won or lost, |
I didn't expect to win because he put so much pressure on me and looked so comfortable. |
I do entertain a lot of negative thoughts and I haven't got any self-belief. But I haven't done bad for someone without any self-belief. |
I don't know if I'm still The Rocket - perhaps I'm more like Thomas the Tank Engine these days! |
I felt all right. I was just trying to get some composure. |
I haven't practiced all season really, I've just been going through the motions. |
I know what I want to do and there's no point giving my secrets away. |
I noticed more and more people gathering around me. I had absolutely no idea I had converted to Islam and handed my life over to it. |
I really enjoyed it out there. |
