I remember last season Paul kept playing on the circuit despite being in obvious pain and unable to win a match and I admired him a lot for that Title: Re: very sad news Post by: Sheriff Fatman on October 09, 2006, 10:23:35 PM Sad news indeed - Sophie was at school with him. Bizarrely, we were looking at photos of him on Sunday.

I really hope he is remembered well, a big loss to the world! Title: Re: very sad news Post by: Karabiner on October 09, 2006, 11:42:37 PM That is terrible news, I had no idea he was so ill.

Title: Re: very sad news Post by: RED-DOG on October 10, 2006, 12:23:46 AM What terrible news, such a shame. My thoughts are with his family.
Title: Re: very sad news Post by: mikkyT on October 10, 2006, 04:43:57 AM Terrible news. I came here to post this - I'm always a little slow. Really feel for his family now, they must be going through hell all this time. It was on the cards, but its still doesnt change the loss they must be going through. he leaves behind a family so young.
Title: Re: very sad news Post by: Indestructable on October 10, 2006, 06:43:59 AM Must admit I thouhgt he had won his battle as well. sad news indeed. :(
Title: Re: very sad news Post by: Acidmouse on October 10, 2006, 07:51:07 AM Yeah its really sad. He was such a character and will be sadly missed :( A Leeds lad with a young family gives us all a reality check.
I thought about him last week funny enough, how we aint heard anything of him recently, always a bad sign. Title: Re: very sad news Post by: kinboshi on October 10, 2006, 08:09:21 AM A top fella, and too young. Feel for his family.
RIP Paul. Title: Re: very sad news Post by: GlasgowBandit on October 10, 2006, 10:11:46 AM Sick news. I was on another forum and I seen the RIP Paul Hunter message, you know I never gave it any thought that it was the same fellow.
I also thought he was winning his battle with Cancer and was shocked at the news, terrible loss of a young life. RIP Paul. Title: RIP Paul Hunter Post by: turny on October 10, 2006, 12:25:22 PM the snooker player Paul Hunter sadly lost his fight against cancer last night a few days short of his 28th birthday.
As a cue sports player my self im devestated by the sad news of the death of such a fine snooker player and genuinly nice guy at such a tender age. i also think i can recall paul playing celebrity poker prior to his illness getting to unbearable. Paul leaves behind a wife and a 9 month old daughter, my thoughts are with them. i would like fellow blondes to use this thread as a thread of condolenses for blondites to pay tribute to tragic death of a fantastic sportsman. Title: Re: very sad news Post by: MrMoves on October 10, 2006, 12:25:49 PM 27 is no age.
My brother in law's mother also died of cancer at the weekend. I'm heartbroken for him. Horrible disease. Title: Re: very sad news Post by: -bluffer- on October 10, 2006, 12:55:36 PM Tragic news - as Sark79 stated previously sometimes the world just isnt fair

Thoughts with Paul's family. Title: Paul Hunter RIP Post by: ericstoner on October 11, 2006, 10:27:39 PM I have just been told that snooker player Paul Hunter yesterday succumbed to Cancer at the all to young age of 27.
Sad news indeed. 27 years old, life can be cruel. Title: Re: very sad news Post by: ACE2M on October 12, 2006, 04:08:34 PM Felt really shocked by this, he was a quality player.
When i was younger and a cuesports fanatic he was real hero of me and my friends and was affectionately known as the huntsman. Best wishes to his young family. R.I.P Title: Re: very sad news Post by: Sark79 on October 21, 2006, 05:34:29 PM On BBC sport, there is a good highlights video . Great talent.
