    All I will say is that he is well-known to all snooker fans.


    Clue: What does "mixed-up" mean?
    "If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

        No, but this is closest answer yet for thinking on the right lines.

                        No, but good that you are giving a reason. From now on, I will only respond to guesses if they explain why they fit the clue.

                        For instance, an answer cannot simply be "JOE DAVIS" (say) - it must explain why Joe Davis (or whoever) can be described as a mixed-up canine public official.

                        • So I am guessing something to do with police (public official)

                          And a dog (canine)

                          And confused?? (mixed-up)

                            OK - big clue: mixed-up means it is an anagram

                            It's not the police.
