I will be trying to get tickets for the 17th

Mark Allen 10am
Stephen Hendry 2.30pm

I am just looking to see how to get to Sheffield, flying into Manchester would seem the obvious, if anybody thinks different let me know. From there I would imagine the train, if anybody has any info I would be very grateful. Thanks

Stephen Hendry may be difficult to get at The Crucible, I had that problem last year. Just to warn you.

I am thinking of going to the John Higgins match, but am going to try and persuade somebody to come with me first, then decide what matches I want to go and see.

When did you put your application in last year snookerfan?

In all seriousness, I've never tried.

But, the only time I've ever had trouble was with Stephen Hendry, for what it's worth.

cheers

im sure once he is 2010 world snooker champion there will be more demand for tickets to his matches

what i will tell you the sooner you get tickets for weekend sessions the better i tried last year for tickets first weekend and the middle weekend no can do i left it late.

What matches you going for? I am there Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Asked for four matches. John Higgins, Marco Fu, Joe Perry and Ali Carter. Ali Carter is there to make up the numbers more then anything.

Mark Allen 10am on the 17th. Hendry at 2.30, I should get the Allen tickets ok. I also went for Selby in the evening.

I meant I picked him because I wanted to go to one extra match, but I guess your meaning is equally correct.

But then didn't Dott win it two years after Ronnie beat him easily in a final? Sign?

Snookerfan, when do they usually notify you of which matches you have got?

I'll do the usual and wait for eBay. It's not worth it until you know who has qualified. And I will be bagging front row seats on those one sided matches because the best seat in the house is front row watching the match on the other table with curtain raised.

I'll be going for the semis. I would go for the whole tournament but until they reintroduce the season ticket offer I am a little inclined to pay 3 times as much as others who still get their season tickets.

You cannot beat walking into the arena to the one table setup. It sends shivers down my spine.

Alex - quite possibly see you there mate, waiting to hear from my "contact" about tickets. Its a special place and awesome atmosphere. Has to be seen to be believed.
