I love Noppon so so much. He has such a sweet nature and I hope he gets in the top 16 because he has worked so hard.
Love , sweet wtf grow a pair
@@danielcoganmanzanas3676pretty certain he has a bigger pair than you though
Corrr get a room!
He will have a bet with you on that 😅😅
Ah true love. What a bell
I have never met a Thai person who wasn't super polite and a pleasure to be around. Noppon represents himself and his nation extremely well.
ได้มาออกช่องเฮนดรี้ด้วย สุดยอดมากๆครับ จะคอยตามเชียร์ไปเรื่อยๆเลยนะครับพี่หมู,im So proud of him! ❤️ 🇹🇭
ผมยังตกใจเลยครับ ❤
สุดยอดครับ
สุดจริงง
Has to be the sweetest competitive sportsman ever. What a lovely person.
His problem is he’s too nice, you need a bit of nastiness
@@ChucklingsanemanHe's nasty in the bedroom with his wife if that helps
@@Chucklingsanemansnooker mate not boxing ffs 😅
@@Chucklingsanemannah mate...plenty of nice guys in top 16
@@BB-nl4rl hendry,
Ossulivan, selby, Higgins, all have a ruthless nasty streak in them. No coincidence there the best 4 to have ever played the game
Noppon is a credit to the human race. As lovely a man as I have ever had the pleasure to see and listen to. The world of snooker is a better place because he's a part of it. This man is lovely and humble in the extreme and deserves absolutely all the plaudits. A fabulous snooker player as much as he is a human being.
Love this guy.
The match against Higgins in the Scottish, Nappon was outstanding. He was rifling every long shot in and doing big breaks from it. He's a great player.
I will never forget when he kneel down when he reached the crucible the first time, such a gentleman
STEPHEN LEE knelt down once at a snooker tournament… he had dropped his chocolate bar!
Proud of these Thai players representing the South East Asian snooker community, love from Malaysia
STEPHEN LEE also very grateful.. he loves East Asian food… James Wattana used to cook him some mean curries
@@PlayMoreGolf-RipOffStephen Lee likes food?
@@Robc--jd6yh I know it was BIG news to me too!
@@PlayMoreGolf-RipOff His 12 year ban finishes soon, I wonder if he'll make a comeback 😂😂
@@DanielLuck7 there are many all you can eat buffet places in the towns and cities of tournaments trembling at the prospect!
I love how 6-8 hours is him taking it easy. Such dedication.
I honestly think some snooker players practice too much. I very much doubt top golfers practice for 8-12 hours a day and they have WAY more things to work on with a full bag of clubs etc. Surely roughly four hours a day is enough to keep the technique in good working order? There must be a point in the day where they're just going through the motions. The mental fatigue must add up too...
Not been funny but that’s his job I’m sure most people on here are working 5 8 hour days a week minimum if not more
@@Eat-MyGoalit’s playing snooker with friends for half the day.
Maybe some of them practice too much, or not very efficiently. But you seem to have no idea how many things a pro snooker player has to work on.@@Eat-MyGoal
@@freyc1 And yet you agree the point I made might be valid. You seem to have no idea how a cogent argument works...
I love Noppon. "What's your favourite British food?" - "Burger King" 😂😂 Very good guy, humble, nice, and a fantastic player.
Marry him then
He is such a lovely guy, so humble and brilliantly talented
Nicest player in the game by far!
Complete opposite to Ronnie O'Sullivan 🏳️🌈🌈
So glad you said that it's so true @@user-uc6vs9wf5b
Disagree, Ali Carter is by far
@@user-uc6vs9wf5b Snooker player with the most inflated ego in the game has an CZcams channel. . The GOAT does NOT
BTW its high up on all Bill Boards that Ronnie O'Sullivan is the all era ,all time GOAT UNCONTESTED 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
@@user-uc6vs9wf5b Complete opposite to Stephen Hendry 🏳🌈🌈
Such a lovely guy and I really hope we get to see him compete at The Masters one day. Fantastic talent
Just got back from Thailand. Some of the best people on the planet.
What great kid! Also Stephen is such a good interviewer. Makes his guests feel so comfortable.
Absolute salt of the earth is Noppon. He deserves a place at the masters, I for one would love to see it. Even listening to Stephen you could tell he was taking it all in.
Thank you Stephen for having Noppon on the channel. I lived in Europe (from USA) for a while, went home every 6 weeks and was exhausting but with a family you must do it. I would imagine, for Noppon, the grind would be much harder from UK to Thailand given time zones, climate and cultural changes he is always adapting too. Hats off to him and his recent tournament results!
What a wonderfully dedicated, humble and lovely man. Immensely talented as well. Wish him nothing but continued success.
Noppon's reaction to winning his Sottish Oen semi nearly made me cry!
Do you mean British?
@@user-zc8fl6ds7k No, the Scottish Open semi where he beat Higgins.
@@user-zc8fl6ds7k Two overrated frauds of snooker Thep and Noppon.They have won ZERO HAHAHAAHAHA
Great to have Noppon on the channel. He has come on so much in the last few years and deserves a title soon. So humble
What a really sweet fella. Hope he gets into the top 16.
What a great guy. So much respect for him for doing this, his English is so good. คุณนพพรสุดยอดเลย 🙏🏼
I'd seen this guy playing previously but never heard him speak. what a guy. Great to listen to. seriously dedicated to the game.
Wow I think I've just got a new favourite player... he's so well mannered and you can just tell he's a properly lovely person 🙏 top man!!
Nice one Stephen. Hopefully you can get Thepchaya on , his fan base is crazy.
Another great interview 👍
I'm also very interested in seeing you talk to Joe Johnson sometime, please 🙏
Anyone else notice the double red at 14.30?🤣what a good man noppon👌🏻👌🏻
He's so humble and his story is amazing and the dedication he put through, living a different life style in the UK. Stephen you need to get poomjaeng on here some day
really look forward to seeing more of Noppon on TV...if rankings were judged by character then he is top 3...lets hope he gets to that level with his snooker skill....i would also add..Please Stephen...can you do another interview with Nappon, this was way too short for such an interesting player...
Hope he gets to the top 16 , gets his dream spot at the masters ✌️
Love Saengkham, absolute legend, lovely guy and the perfect flag bearer for Thai snooker
Legend??
@charlielad6124 relax Charlie lad it's just a word
Noppon is such a gentleman. So sweet, really hope he fulfills his dream of playing in the masters.
He seems to be improving all the time. So fingers crossed for him!
หลังจากได้อ่านคอมเม้นท์แต่ละคอมเม้นท์ คุณคือความภูมิใจของคนไทย นพพล แสงคำ ขอให้คุณติดท็อป5ของโลกครับ ผมติดตามเชียร์คุณตลอด
Such a respectful and modest player,best of luck to him to get into the masters 👍🏼
Great guy, hope he breaks into the top 16!
Top class bloke. Great episode. Ding next?
Really hope so! Be great to see him on this . Ding is the Asian GOAT
Loved to get to know Noppon better, what a top bloke!
Thanks for yet another super video, Stephen 👌
What an absolute gentleman. Love the slight bow that he does as Stephen introduces him, the ultimate show of respect 🙏
Great interview. Such a friendly fella. I wish him all the success. I think the UK players have no idea the sacrifice these Asian players have to go through to even play snooker. P.S. Any chance of arranging an interview with Selby sometime soon? :)
This is the first 'interview' I've seen with this young man; I had no idea he was such a nice guy and so dedicated to his sport. O hope he achieves his goal of playing in the Masters, and more. He deserves success. Thank you Stephen and to Noppon for a great video. :-D
What a great person Noppon is and his game is getting better every time i see him play. Great video again Stephen. Can't wait for the tough table challenge with Noppon
Comes across very well. More power to him in his career.
Thoroughly enjoyed that one. Love Thai culture, food and now this up and comer 🎱
He comes across as a gentle genuine young man and with his hard work we may well be looking at a future world champ!
Very humble guy noppon. Great to see him on your channel and having a frame and chat with you.
I don’t think we quite take into account how tough it must be for Asian players moving to a completely new part of the world - Noppon so well mannered.
Who's 'we'? You?
@@MetteC5 we as in majority of snooker fans
@@snookerstones show me the stats
@@MetteC5 was just an opinion
@@snookerstones ah, we finally got there, well done!
What a treat! My favourite player. Such a humble guy. I love his attitude.
Great guest. So impressed with Noppon’s dedication and commitment. In every interview and here he seems like such a good bloke as well, I wish him well for the rest of 2024. Cracking stuff again on this channel. Thank you!
That was brilliant noppon is sooo dedicated and his English has got better. This video should of been longer
Great interview Stephen and Noppon comes off very well, lovely guy
I was at the scottish open when Noppon beat higgins, was super happy for him. Such a nice & humble guy
Just chucking this in the mix Noppon is going to top the tough table challenge
Brilliant video! Couldn't watch this without a smile on my face, Noppon is such a credit to the sport
always smiling is Noppon!!
What a lovely lad Hope he does well
Brilliant. He deserves everything from the game.
what a lovely man a credit to the sport and also a fantastic player i do hope he reaches his goals he and his family deserve it ...thanks also steven for the videos you do
Its a beautiful thing to see our great game spread amongst the players from all over the world.
what a lovely humble wee guy
He’s so lovely. So polite. Wish him well so much!
Perseverance will paid off , all the best Noppon
That was such a great Vlog....
Such a genuine man ...
I loved that one Stephen...
Thanka
Great interview. This channel is just great. Please get Ding on soon!
brilliant work stephen such good content
Thanks for this interview on Noppon. Been following his snooker and great to see his hard work is yielding results. All the best !
Great interview, props to Noppon for doing this and opening up!! It's great to get an insight on the foreign players 😀
Lovely video. What a nice guy. Good character too. Hope he continues getting good results.
Man I love this channel so much. Every time you have a chat with one of these players, I feel like they have to be my new favourite. You introduce them in such a lovely way, and its so nice to see the people behind the athlete. Love it!
That was enjoyable simply because he’s a great guy so respectful also and you can see he admires Stephen!
Think Noppon will have gained a lot of fans from this video.
What a genuinely nice, polite, hardworking guy!
Never really looked out for his results much in the past but I will do now.
Stephen you are such a great interviewer. You can tell you make Noppon feel very comfortable.
This is such a great show. And such positive comments below. Excellent
Such a humble and respectful man is Noppon, I wish him all the success he can have … class 👌.. thanks for sharing Stephen 👍
Really liked this one Stephen. It was great to see Noppon away from the table.. Otherwise you rarely get to see their life away from snooker. and you have a great way to disarm them!
Great player, great guy. Hope he hits the big time soon. He's knocking on the door for sure..
So great to see Saengkham on the show - living overseas is hard, but the experience helps you to grow and become stronger. All the best to him.
Another great interview!! It must be such a challenge for the Chinese and Thai players to come and play in uk with the media spotlight on them as well. But is also cool that they seem to embrace it. And so good to see the British players loving to go and play in china as well (Ronny seems to enjoy it a lot) so it's working both ways I think
What a great guy. Gonna start supporting him
สุดยอด ผมตามเชียร์ Noppon & Thepchaiya มาตลอดครับ คลิปนี้ถูกในคนไทยและตัวผมเองอย่างมาก ขอบคุณครับ❤
Such a lovely and polite lad! Wish him all the best!
Such a nice person and player. Much love for Noppon
Always a happy lad
Sweet guy! Thanks for this.
awesome lad, very kind and polite.
He seems to be such a lovely human being... And also a great player! Can’t wait to see the tough table challenge! :)
Fingers crossed this lad gets to the masters. Im rooting for him now after this interview what a class act
Great lads Noppon & Stephen
เป็นนักสนุ๊กเก้อร์ไทยรุ่นใหม่ ที่มีความตั้งใจสูงมาก และ สื่อสารภาษาอังกฤษได้ดีด้วย ขอให้คุณหมูประสบความสำเร็จยิ่งๆขึ้นไปนะครับ เป็นกำลังใจและเชียร์ทุกๆรายการครับ
Very enjoyable thanks lads
Noppon seems like a lovely guy, hope he starts getting some more success
omg so honest so refreshing best of luck Noppon
What a down to earth great fella, I wish him all the best.
I’m sure he has many new fans now. Great episode
love both these guys
Great interview, Noppon seems a lovely guy.
What a lovely guy, hope he gets a win soon!
Here we have Noppon, a 31yr old top pro, who practices 8 hours everyday and has managed to make only one final in his whole career. That is not meant as a slight on Noppon, it just highlights the standard at the very top of the game. Scary!!
Yeah, it’s why all the pros were utterly in awe that O’Sullivan took a year off, playing practically no Snooker, and came back and won the World Championship in 2013. I think it was Barry Hawkins who said “The general public don’t know how unbelieavable that was”
@@johnp515 he beat Barry Hawkins so perfectly believable
@@gordoncockfield Ronnie also beat Judd Trump at the World Championship finals 2022, and Barry beat Judd at the European Masters 2023,then?
Great player he could run deep in the world championship.
สุดยอดมากๆครับ หมูเป็นผู้เล่นที่ผมติดตามมาตลอด ขอบคุณเฮนดรี่ที่เชิญหมูมารายการ ภูมิใจแทนครอบครัว ขอให้หมูประสบความสำเร็จนะครับ
He's an awesome player, strikes the cue ball with such authority, hopefully he wins a big tournament this year.
