“I love playing in Ireland and I've had great support here, like I get everywhere.”

“Northern Ireland as a whole is a great snooker country because of Alex Higgins and Dennis Taylor and now of course there is Mark Allen. It's a hotbed of snooker and a place where our sport is always well supported.”

“I think I should win every tournament I enter.”

“Around the world, people look to Ireland as a country where it doesn't matter where you come from but where you want to go.”

“Ireland's place north and south is in Europe and leading change in Europe.”

“A number of very good managers have done well to lead Ireland to tournaments - Jack Charlton, Mick McCarthy, Giovanni Trapattoni - and we will do our utmost to qualify. That's what we'll be judged on.”
