THE sight of Jay-Jay Okocha with a cue in his hand is starting to cause panic in the snooker room at the Euxton training ground.

Apparently he has gone snooker loopy since getting to know the game and the word is it will not be long before he is producing trick shots to match the party pieces that make him such a stunning performer on the pitch.

"Jay-Jay's only just learned snooker but he's in every morning wanting to get on the table," said one of his early victims, Mike Whitlow.
