Ali Carter to retire!

I'm not sure it's necessary to be slagging off Joe Johnson on Twitter. It's a poor show. Joe might not be the best but he doesn't deserve a pro to be taking the ****. At least Joe Johnson isn't publicly looking for sympathy and attention by saying he's going to quit because things aren't going right.

Not to mention that no matter what is said, he (Joe) was world champion (including beating the best player of his generation in the final). A lot of players will never be able to say that!

Indeed, and Joe won his World Title in style, and he consolidated this by reaching the final the following year. However, Carter is starting to come across as being well balanced - probably because he has a chip on both shoulders!
