Former footballer Troy Deeney hopes his wildcard entry into the UK Open Pool Championship can help 바카라push the sport forward바카라. (More Football News)
Deeney played in the Premier League with Watford and later had a spell at boyhood club Birmingham before a brief stint in coaching at Sky Bet League Two club Forest Green, where he was sacked after just six matches in charge having taken over following the dismissal of David Horseman.
The 35-year-old is set to switch his focus to the pool table when the UK Open event starts in Telford on May 7.
Deeney hopes his participation can play a part in raising the sport바카라s profile.
바카라It바카라s something different, isn바카라t it? Something completely new,바카라 Deeney told Sky Sports. 바카라I just like pushing the boundaries a little bit, and seeing how it goes.
바카라I바카라ve always got fond respect for any athlete in any profession. To do what they do takes hours and years of practice and dedication, so why not try my hand at it when the opportunity has come around?바카라
Deeney, though, is not expecting to be an instant success.
바카라The aim is to go there and not embarrass myself to be honest, but also be humble enough and vulnerable enough to know these guys have been doing it for years,바카라 he said.
바카라You can바카라t just put a few months바카라 worth of genuine training into it and a lot of years of odd playing 바카라 sometimes with a beer in hand as well 바카라 and expect to beat these guys.
바카라But I know as soon as I바카라m involved in anything, my competitive edge will come flowing through anyways. I바카라ll give it a good go.
바카라My end goal for this is to push the sport forward as much as I possibly can.바카라
