          yh its happening all the time the best way you can aviod this is follow these 2 steps .

          1 never leave your cue in the club regardless of locking case or not

          2 never leave in your car as this messes it up anway by warping it .


          its really nasty when it happens did the club put it in a locked cupboard

            FFS, what is it with everybody having their cues nicked??????????

            Is that Shirebrooke, North Nottingham????????

            I've just discovered I've got a 2 piece Riley James Watana under the bed I didn't know I had, it needs retipping but if you want it it's yours...

            Send me a pm.
            One day I'll make a century, I've knocked in a 51!

                Yes the cue was locked up with about 20 players cue in a locked cabinet in a locked room so i thought it would be secure enough to leave the overnight as i was playing the next day..

                  What a croc of ****e.. If you didn't have a cue yourself.. a) borrow one from a friend, b) use a rack cue. Nonsense you couldn't play. I'm with caz and fed up with these begging for sympathy posts.

                      Never the less, stating that you could not complete your match is absolute nonsense.

                      And yes, you blatently asked a the bottom of your post for 'members to help you out' also known as begging.

                      How on earth can a member help you out when your loss is so 'sentimental'????

                        i didnt complete my match as i couldnt get used to the cue i was given to borrow as i have used my cue for so long and by putting that at the bottom of my post i am not asking for people to send a cue as that is just not going to happen im asking for advice and if it has happened to other people and what they have done about this look mate im not after no haters which clearly you are doing i dont see what your problem is like and like i said if you dont want to read what i put read another post.

                          I know exactly what you're saying Matt, I always use the same cue myself and occasionally use a spare cue if the main one is being retipped etc. Once had a match where I ended up feeling very unsettled after using a spare peradon cue, just felt lifeless! Excuses hey! :snooker:

                            In all the 23 years i've been playing i've never left my cue at a club or anywhere for that matter other than my house so if anyone else reads this take your cue home so nobody can pinch it.
