Mark Allen is at it again

[fred.england]

What happened to freedom of speech in this country. He cocked up and paid the price.....he is likely to cock up again but at least he has the b0110cks to say what he thinks.

[sberry]

It doesn't take balls to be stupid or talk stupid.

[robertmac]

He seems to have elected himself spokesperson which is
pretty foolish in my opinion.

He needs to growup and lead by example and play snooker.

[narl]

Never like him and never will. To say he could be the one to rival judd is laughable as well.

Hows it laughable exactly? Allen is more than capable of rivaling the flavour of the month.

Judd is hardly a flavour of the month.

He won the China Open in April 2011, was the runner up of the World Championship in May. Became the UK Champion in December 2011, won the International Open. He won the International Championship in November 2012, thus becoming the World Number one.

He's not my favourite player, but you've got to admit, that's a hell of a long month.

And the saying "flavour of the month" isn't to be taken literally

[Looki]

They have certainly had a couple of great matches. Allen is as good a player as Trump at his best, very natural and his talent and ability is second to none, but he's more inconsistent. Should he find consistency, I don't see why they couldn't have a great rivalry between them in the future.

It's still not true.

[throtts]

Allen is a great player just not very watchable. Snatchy player...

[narl]

Depends on your point of view, commentators and the media fawning over him as if his like has never been seen before is getting incredibly tedious. its almost like the commentators have been told to "big him up" at every opportunity, im sure for Willie Thorne thats a blessing as its a distraction from him getting every shot he calls wrong in commentary. Its more the constant droning on of these muppets about him thats starting to pee people off, and i hear plenty of people say the same thing in Snooker clubs.

So in that respect, flavour of the month? Most definitely.
